Romans 5:1-6. In today’s episode, we dive into the topic of suffering since some of you have been requesting this. Now, there is A LOT to teach kids about suffering  and we are only covering 1 sliver of this so make sure to address any questions they have since we can’t cover it all in 1 episode.   We’ll talk about what suffering is, what the Bible says about it, and how even difficult times can help us grow in our faith. We'll also hear from Paul, who faced many challenges like shipwrecks and imprisonment, and yet, told us why we are to rejoice in our sufferings. Kids will hear how suffering can produce endurance, character, and hope, and hear an encouraging example from nature about wildfires and new growth.   To enjoy the library of bonus content (coloring pages, sheets, memory verse, etc) for the episodes go here and click bonus content.
