🚗 Father’s Day Special — Carpooling with Jesus

Hey Carpool Crew! Whether you're in the car, eating cereal at the kitchen table, or riding your scooter down the sidewalk—this Father’s Day episode is just for you.

🦸 It’s time to play: REAL DAD or SUPERHERO?
Spoiler alert: While dads don’t wear capes or shoot webs, they love, protect, and lead in powerful ways that reflect the heart of God.

Today, we’re looking at Jesus’ earthly dad, Joseph, and what made him the kind of father God chose for His Son. Joseph didn’t have fame or superpowers—but he had courage, obedience, and grit. Through him, and through His Heavenly Father, Jesus learned what it means to love with strength and serve with heart.

📖 Key Verses:

• Matthew 1:20–24 — Joseph listens to God’s voice

• Matthew 2:13–15 — Joseph protects his family

• John 5:19 — Jesus follows the Father’s example

• Psalm 68:5 — God is a Father to the fatherless

💡 Big Lesson: Great dads show us a glimpse of what God is like—loving, present, and kind. And even if your dad isn’t around or doesn't get it right, your Heavenly Father always does.

👟 Action Steps for Kids:

• Say thank you to your dad or a dad-like person

• Pray for them to have strength and wisdom

• Forgive when they mess up

• Spend time with them—it’s the best gift

🎙️ Story Moment:
Imagine Jesus as a kid, hammer in hand, missing the nail—and Joseph saying, “Good job, son. Keep trying. I’m proud of you.” That’s the kind of love every kid needs. And that’s how God sees you.

💬 Discussion Question:
What’s something your dad—or a dad-like person—has done that made you feel really loved or special?
