September 15th: How to Stay Calm When You’re Angry | Kids Devotional Carpooling with Jesus


Listen Later

Hey Carpool Crew! 🚗 Whether you're annoyed at your sibling from breakfast or thinking about that one kid at school who pushes your buttons, I’m Pastor Justin—and I’m so glad you're here.

All month long, we're in our series:

Proverbs for Your School Life — daily wisdom from the Bible to help kids make real-life choices with friends, classmates, siblings, and more.

📖 Proverbs 15:1 (CSB)

👉 “A gentle answer turns away anger, but a harsh word stirs up wrath.”

💡 What does that mean?

Solomon is teaching a simple but powerful truth:

  • When someone’s angry and you yell back, you multiply the emotion

  • When you stay calm, kind, or even silent, you cool things down

  • You don’t have to match someone else’s anger—you can break the cycle

    ✅ In this episode, kids will learn:

    • Why gentle words are stronger than loud arguments

    • How Jesus modeled calm and truth—even when people shouted at Him

    • Real ways to turn down anger instead of turning it up

    • What it looks like to be a peacemaker, not a reactor

      🧱 Real-life example:

      Imagine someone knocks over your Lego set on purpose. You want to explode—but instead you take a breath, say, “That wasn’t cool, but I’m not going to fight about it.”
      👉 That’s choosing wisdom over wrath.

      📘 Application for Today:

      1. Pause before you respond—especially when you're mad

      2. Use words that cool things down, not stir things up

      3. Remember: Sometimes silence or walking away is the wisest thing you can do

        👨‍👩‍👧 Parent Tip:

        Ask your child:
        “Think of a time you got angry. What would a gentle answer have looked like in that moment?”
        If this episode helped your family, share it with another parent or your kids’ pastor. Carpooling with Jesus is here to help families everywhere grow in wisdom—one car ride at a time.
