Annie's MiniBFF Podcast
In March 2020 when the world started closing doors, Annie F. Downs opened one for her youngest group of friends. She started reading a picture book each week on her Instagram account, and SO MANY friends tuned in. To continue with her love for reading to her miniBFFs, Annie is now sharing stories from her favorite book ever – The Bible. The miniBFF podcast will allow kids (and their grownups) a chance to grow in their faith as she brings the stories of the Bible to life.

We wrap up our season of the gospels with this beautiful story from the Jesus Storybook Bible. We know that Jesus came back to the disciples to show them that he is alive. But the disciples always knew that he would have to go back to heaven to be with God. Jesus had told the disciples that he was getting a place ready for them and they knew the way to get there.

But there was one person they could not hide from. And that would be Jesus himself! In fact they thought he was a ghost when they first saw him! But he was not a ghost. He was very much alive and ready to help them tell the world all about him.

We know about Easter Sunday but did you know that there is a very important day that comes before Easter? Well, it is called Good Friday. On this day the people who didn’t know Jesus and all the wonderful ways he loved the world, decided that Jesus wasn't allowed to live anymore. Our story today talks about what happened on that day. It can feel really hard to read because it is so hard to think about Jesus being treated so badly. ...

Jesus spent a lot of time telling us parables while He was on earth. This episode is the parable about a son who told his father he was ready to go off and explore the world and take all his money with him. But the son didn’t handle his adventure very well. He made a lot of mistakes along the way. So many that he was afraid to go home to his dad and admit what he had done. Now we know from the title that the son does go back home. ...

Because Jesus isn’t just talking about the person who lives next door to you when he says to love your neighbor. Oh no, it is so much more than that miniBFFs. An...
