Bible Text:
Moses was shepherding the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. He led the flock to the west end of the wilderness and came to the mountain of God, Horeb. The angel of God appeared to him in flames of fire blazing out of the middle of a bush. He looked. The bush was blazing away but it didn’t burn up.
Exodus 3 (MSG)

Bible Text:
A man from the family of Levi married a Levite woman. The woman became pregnant and had a son. She saw there was something special about him and hid him. She hid him for three months. When she couldn’t hide him any longer she got a little basket-boat made of papyrus, waterproofed it with tar and pitch, and placed the child in it. Then she set it afloat in the reeds at the edge of the Nile.
The baby’s older sister found herself a vantage point a little way off and watched to see what would happen to him. Pharaoh’s daughter came down to the Nile to bathe; her maidens strolled on the bank. She saw the basket-boat floating in the reeds and sent her maid to get it. She opened it and saw the child—a baby crying! Her heart went out to him. She said, “This must be one of the Hebrew babies.”
Then his sister was before her: “Do you want me to go and get a nursing mother from the Hebrews so she can nurse the baby for you?”
Pharaoh’s daughter said, “Yes. Go.” The girl went and called the child’s mother.
Pharaoh’s daughter told her, “Take this baby and nurse him for me. I’ll pay you.” The woman took the child and nursed him.
Exodus 2 (MSG)

Join Mrs. Shue and the shoebox kids as they dive deep into the story of Joseph, exploring themes of belonging, family, and God's mysterious ways. Sammy grapples with his emotions and yearnings for parental bonds, paralleling Joseph's experience in Egypt. As the children prepare for a sun-kissed church picnic by the lake, Sammy stumbles upon a vulnerable baby bird, mirroring his own sense of displacement. Through heartfelt conversations and nature's gentle cues, Sammy begins to see that perhaps God's plans are working in ways he hadn't imagined. This touching tale reminds us that even in our loneliest moments, there's hope and purpose waiting to unfold.

Bible Text:
Then Joseph could not control himself before all those who stood by him. He cried, “Make everyone go out from me.” So no one stayed with him when Joseph made himself known to his brothers.  And he wept aloud, so that the Egyptians heard it, and the household of Pharaoh heard it.  And Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Is my father still alive?” But his brothers could not answer him, for they were dismayed at his presence.
Genesis 45:1-3 (MSG)

In this episode of Kathy's Kids Storytime, Chris and Maria play a trick on their little sister, Yo Yo, leading to a panicked search in the woods. Lessons about family bonds and responsibility unfold. Join the adventure!

Bible Text:
Ten of Joseph’s brothers went down to Egypt to get food. Jacob didn’t send Joseph’s brother Benjamin with them; he was afraid that something bad might happen to him. So Israel’s sons joined everyone else that was going to Egypt to buy food, for Canaan, too, was hit hard by the famine.
Joseph was running the country; he was the one who gave out rations to all the people. When Joseph’s brothers arrived, they treated him with honor, bowing to him. Joseph recognized them immediately, but treated them as strangers and spoke roughly to them.

Genesis 42:3-7 (MSG)

Have you ever promised to take care of a friend's pet for them while they're away? What happened? Did you remember to feed them and exercise them everyday? In our story today, Jenny learns the lesson that Joseph learned when he was faithful to God and his daily tasks he was entrusted with.

Bible Text:
Joseph said to Pharaoh, “Pharaoh’s two dreams both mean the same thing. God is telling Pharaoh what he is going to do. The seven healthy cows are seven years and the seven healthy ears of grain are seven years—they’re the same dream. The seven sick and ugly cows that followed them up are seven years and the seven scrawny ears of grain dried out by the east wind are the same—seven years of famine.
Genesis 41:25-27 (MSG)
