Larsen & Sonny Talk Summer Excitement and Jesus' Lessons

What's your favorite part about summer? Is it the vacations, the warm weather, or maybe just the extra time with friends and family? Join us as we chat with our young pals Larson and Sonny about their exciting summer plan. Let their enthusiasm for the season inspire you to make the most of your own summer adventures!

But summer isn't just about fun and games, it's also a great time to reflect on our faith and our connection with Jesus. In this episode, Larson and Sonny discuss their favorite stories about Jesus and how they learn from them on Sundays and Wednesdays. Sonny especially loves the Easter story, which reminds us of Jesus' sacrifice and resurrection. So, as we enjoy the sun and the warmth this season, let's also remember to choose joy, love others, and follow the example set by Jesus in our daily lives.
