Hey Carpool Crew!
In today’s episode of Carpooling with Jesus, Pastor Justin shares a powerful truth from Proverbs 28:6: “Better the poor person who lives with integrity than the rich one who distorts right and wrong.”
This proverb flips what the world says about success. You’ll hear why who you are matters so much more than what you have — and how integrity is worth more than any phone, grade, trophy, or number of likes.
Even Jesus, who could have chosen fame and power, chose obedience and character instead. He invites us to do the same.
🚗 Key Takeaways for Kids:
-
Integrity means doing the right thing, even when no one is watching
-
Being popular or having stuff doesn’t define your value
-
God sees and celebrates every wise choice you make
-
You don’t have to fake it to impress others—choose what’s right
👟 Practical Application:
-
Don’t compare your life to others online or in real life
-
Do what’s right, not just what’s easy
-
Trust that your character matters more than your achievements
📖 Verse of the Day: Proverbs 28:6 – “Better the poor person who lives with integrity than the rich one who distorts right and wrong.”
👨👩👧👦 Parent Action Step: Talk with your kids about how integrity shows up at school, in friendships, and online. Share a time when choosing integrity was hard but worth it—and encourage them to do the same.
