Moments With Jesus: Immersive Bible Stories for Kids

When we meet Jesus, we can either choose to be offended, or galvanized into action! We see that truth demonstrated clearly in Luke 5:1-11, where Peter is called to follow Jesus. In this Midweek Discussion, Christian and Eugene talk about Peter's call, and the incredible adventure of discipleship – a journey into what Eugene calls, "The Other Country." How do we as believers set off on this adventure, and how do we as parents help our children encounter the person of Jesus without losing them in the mire of "religion"? We cover all of this, and more, in this exciting Midweek Discussion.

Encounter Jesus on the shores of the Sea of Galilee!

from Luke 5:1-11

Imagine you're sitting on the edge of a boat, with the morning sun on your face, breathing in cool fresh air as you stretch your arms high over your head, yawning. You've only just beached your boat, dragging its bow up the sandy-gravelly shore; now you're sitting and resting from your long night's work. Yes, you've been out there on the deep blue waters of the Sea of Galilee all night, fishing…

Encounter Jesus when He performs His first miracle!

from John 2:1-11

Imagine being a guest at a beautiful wedding party. You spent the whole afternoon buying a present, getting ready, getting dressed: you are looking your absolute best as you watch the ceremony. The bride and groom are people you know and love very much; they are as happy as any two people could ever be; your whole town is here to celebrate with them. And now that beautiful bride and handsome groom kiss – they are married now! – and now everyone is ready to head to the party and let loose…

Encounter Jesus at His Baptism!

from Matthew 3:1-17, Mark 1:1-11, Luke 3:1-22

Imagine standing in the waters of a gently flowing river, up to your knees, feeling the coolness of the current passing you by. On both sides of the river, golden-brown hills rise and then fall; the edge of the riverbank is shaded by branches and leaves swirling in the wind. It is very nearly sunset time, now. You have been standing at the edge of the waters almost all day long; finally, just a moment ago, you kicked off your sandals and waded into the river. The red and orange colors of dusk are beginning to rise; the waters look almost green now; you close your eyes and enjoy the peaceful sound of their flowing…

Encounter Jesus on the Night of His Birth!

from Luke 2:8-20

Encounter Jesus on the night of his birth. Imagine lying on your back in the freshest, greenest grass. Overhead, the night sky spreads from edge to edge of your view: millions of twinkling, sparkling stars dot the darkness of a moonless night. You take a deep breath in, smelling all the smells of the grass and the wildflowers and the earth and the herd of sheep asleep nearby. You are very nearly asleep now yourself, hearing only the conversation of your friends, the fire crackling, the gust of a breeze blowing by…
