Hey Carpool Crew! In today’s episode of Carpooling with Heroes of the Bible, we begin our journey with Ruth, one of Scripture’s most surprising and inspiring heroes. Her story doesn’t start with victory or celebration… it starts with loss, loneliness, and a life-changing choice.

As we explore Ruth Chapter 1, we dive into the history, the culture, and the brave decision Ruth made to stay with Naomi — a decision that will eventually shape the entire story of God’s people.

Kids will learn:

• What a famine really meant in ancient Israel

• Why Moab and Israel didn’t get along

• What it meant to be a widow in Bible times

• Why Ruth’s promise to Naomi is one of the boldest declarations of faith in Scripture

• How God works quietly even when life feels bitter

This is Episode 1 in our five-part Ruth series, filled with rich context, amazing details, and encouragement for kids to stay faithful even when life gets difficult.

🚗💨 Thanks for listening to Carpooling with Heroes of the Bible—where every ride helps you know the Bible’s greatest heroes in deeper, richer ways.

Hey Carpool Crew! 👋 Welcome to the very first episode of Carpooling with Heroes of the Bible!

Today, we’re kicking off our deep dive into the life of Peter — before he ever walked on water or became one of the leaders of the early church. We’ll travel back to the Sea of Galilee to see how an ordinary fisherman, tired from a long night of no catches, met Jesus and had his entire life turned upside down.

You’ll learn what fishing was really like in Peter’s world, how Jewish boys trained to become rabbis, and why Peter’s “yes” to Jesus was so much bigger than a single moment — it was a total life change.

Because following Jesus doesn’t start with being perfect. It starts with saying yes.
