Summary

Luke 18:1-8 Have you ever prayed for something over and over, and it felt like no one was listening? In today’s episode, we hear Jesus tell a parable — a special story with a deeper meaning — about a woman who didn’t give up. She kept going to a judge who didn’t care about God or people. She begged for justice until he finally gave in. Jesus used this story to teach us something powerful: God is not like that unfair judge. God is good, just, and always listening to our prayers. In this episode, kids will learn: What a parable is. What justice means in words they can understand What it means to be persistent Why Jesus wants us to keep praying and not lose heart. Together we’ll see how God hears us when we pray and promises to make all things right in His perfect timing. ------------------------------- 🎁 Join the team:Visit https://www.kbspodcast.com/ and click Support & Bonus Content You can: 💛 Give a one-time gift 🙌 Join Patreon for just $5/month and receive weekly bonus content 📅 Or choose a discounted onetime payment annual plan I also have Kids Bible Stories Bedtime & Kids Bible Stories Espanol now available, FREE, wherever you get your podcasts!
