Hey Carpool Crew, today we’re learning what it means to actually make peace—not just enjoy it. In Matthew 5:9, Jesus says, “Blessed are the peacemakers,” reminding us that kids who choose kindness instead of arguing, calm instead of drama, and gentleness instead of snapping back are showing the world what God is like.

This episode teaches kids that being a peacemaker doesn’t mean ignoring problems or pretending everything is fine. It means handling tough moments the way Jesus would—by pausing before reacting, using kind words even when frustrated, and helping others cool down or make things right. Peacemakers aren’t weak… they’re strong, thoughtful, and brave enough to bring calm wherever they go.

Hey Carpool Crew. Christmas is full of excitement and sometimes big feelings too. In today’s special What Would You Do If… subscriber episode, Pastor Justin talks about what to do when you do not get the gift you were hoping for.

Kids will learn how to handle disappointment with gratitude, joy, and kindness, and why how we respond matters just as much as what we receive. This episode points kids back to Jesus, reminds them to honor the giver, and helps them choose a thankful heart.

Bottom Line: You may not love every gift, but you can always love the giver.

Hey Carpool Crew, today we’re learning why the angels announced “peace on earth” the night Jesus was born. Luke 2:14 tells us that the angels didn’t bring this message to kings or famous people—they shared it with ordinary shepherds, showing that God’s peace is for everybody. Kids who feel confident and kids who feel shy. Kids with big friend groups and kids who sit alone sometimes. Families that seem put together and families that feel a little messy. Jesus came for all of us.

This episode encourages kids to look around and notice who might be left out, standing alone, or hoping someone would include them. When children invite others in—into a game, a seat at lunch, or a conversation—they help show the world what God’s peace really looks like. God’s peace isn’t small or limited. It’s big enough for everyone they’ll ever meet.
