Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about something amazing: being thankful for Jesus’ example and learning how to live like Him every day. We all have people we look up to — maybe a teacher, coach, or parent — but Jesus gave us the ultimate example of how to love, serve, and live with kindness.

In Ephesians 2:8–9, the Bible says, “For you are saved by grace through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God’s gift — not from work...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about one of the best reasons to be thankful every day: God’s forgiveness. We all mess up sometimes. Maybe you’ve said something you wish you could take back, disobeyed your parents, or hurt a friend’s feelings. That heavy feeling of guilt can whisper, “I blew it.” But here’s the amazing truth — when we mess up, God doesn’t cancel us. He forgives us.

In 1 John 1:9...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about something that’s a huge part of your life: school! Some mornings it’s exciting, and other mornings… well, you’d rather stay in bed. But here’s the truth: school isn’t just about grades or homework — it’s one of the ways God helps you grow.

In Luke 2:52, the Bible says, “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and with people.” That means e...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about something exciting: being thankful for adventures! Whether it’s a road trip, a vacation, or just exploring a new park, every trip is a chance to see God’s goodness in new places and with new people.

In Psalm 121:8, the Bible says, “The Lord will protect your coming and going both now and forever.” This verse comes from a special group of Psalms called the Songs of...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about something that might sound small but can make a big difference: quiet moments. Life can feel loud — alarms, chatter, school, sports, and busy schedules — but some of the most powerful moments with God happen when we slow down, breathe, and listen.

In Psalm 46:10, God says, “Stop fighting, and know that I am God.” In Hebrew, that phrase means “let go.” It’s God’s w...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about two small words that can make a huge difference: Thank you. All month long, we’ve been learning about being thankful — not just during November, but every single day of the year. Saying thank you isn’t just good manners; it’s a way to remind people that God’s goodness is real.

In Psalm 107:1, it says, “Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His faithful l...

Hey Carpool Crew! 👋 This is something brand new — welcome to the very first episode of Carpooling with Heroes of the Bible!

I’m Pastor Justin, and in this new series, we’re going to take a deeper look at the amazing people God used all throughout Scripture — the heroes who followed Him, failed big, learned, grew, and changed the world.

Each month, we’ll spend five episodes getting to know one Bible hero — not just their sto...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about something we sometimes forget to thank God for: ourselves. That might sound a little funny, but think about it — God made you! He gave you your laugh, your voice, your mind, your talents, and the unique way you see the world.

In Ephesians 2:10, it says, “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time for us to ...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about something really special: being thankful for our church family. Whether your church meets in a big building, a small school, or even your living room, God designed the church to be more than a place — it’s a family. A place where you belong, where people love you, pray for you, and help you grow closer to Jesus.

In Hebrews 10:24–25, it says, “Let us con...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about one of the best gifts God gives us: our friends! Friends make life brighter, funnier, and a whole lot more meaningful. They help us when we’re sad, forgive us when we mess up, and remind us of what God’s love really looks like in action.

In Proverbs 17:17, it says, “A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a difficult time.” True friendship isn’t jus...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today we’re talking about something that isn’t always easy: being thankful even when life feels hard. It’s simple to thank God when everything’s going great, but what about the days when things fall apart, people are unkind, or plans don’t go the way you hoped?

In 1 Thessalonians 5:18, the Bible says, “Give thanks in everything, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” That doesn’t...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin — and today’s a big one. It’s October 31st, and depending on your family, today might look totally different. Maybe you’re dressing up and going trick-or-treating, maybe you’re at a church festival, or maybe your family skips Halloween altogether — and that’s completely okay! But here’s the question we’re asking today: What does God say about Halloween, and should we be afraid of it?

In Ephesian...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin, and today we’re talking about something that makes a lot of kids — and even adults — nervous: What if I’m scared to pray out loud? Maybe you freeze when someone asks, “Who wants to pray?” Or you worry you’ll say the wrong thing, forget your words, or sound weird. Praying silently feels easier — but praying out loud? That can feel scary.

In Romans 8:26, the Bible says, “The Spirit Himself interc...

Hey Carpool Crew!

In tonight’s Goodnight Psalms, we rest in the promise from Psalm 16:8 — “I always let the Lord guide me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.”

No matter what kind of day you had, God is right beside you — steady, strong, and unshakable. You don’t have to be afraid of what’s ahead or worry about what’s behind. The same God who guided you today will hold you through the night.

Take a deep breath, le...

Hey Carpool Crew, it’s Pastor Justin, and today we’re talking about something that hits deep — What if I’m scared of losing people’s trust? Maybe you told a lie, forgot something important, or made a mistake that hurt someone you care about. Now you’re worried your parents, teachers, or friends won’t see you the same way. That fear can feel heavy, but here’s the good news: trust can be rebuilt — and Jesus walks with you as you do i...
