September 6th: Why Honoring Your Parents Leads to Wisdom | Kids Devotional Carpooling with Jesus
Manage episode 504855256 series 3624186
Hey Carpool Crew! 🚗 Happy Saturday! Whether you’re hanging out at the breakfast table or just waking up slow, I’m Pastor Justin—and I’m so glad you’re here.
We’re continuing our Proverbs for Your School Life series—daily wisdom from the same book Jesus studied as a kid. And today’s truth? It’s all about something every kid needs to hear (even Pastor Justin did when he was growing up):
📖 Proverbs 6:20 (CSB)
👉 “My son, keep your father’s command, and don’t reject your mother’s teaching.”
💡 What does this mean?
Your parents aren’t perfect (none of us are), but they love you and want to lead you toward wisdom.
They’ve lived more life, made more mistakes, and have more experience than you.
Honoring them isn’t just about following rules—it’s about learning to receive wisdom.
✅ In this episode, kids will learn:
Why the Bible connects obedience to wisdom
How Jesus Himself honored His earthly parents (Luke 2:51)
Why boundaries from your parents are often gifts, not punishments
📱 Example:
When your mom says, “Put your phone away,” it may feel frustrating—but she might be protecting your mental health, sleep, or time with God. What sounds like nagging may actually be wisdom wrapped in love.
📘 Real-life application:
Take one step to honor your parents today—maybe that’s listening the first time
Ask God for a good heart when receiving correction or boundaries
Trust that obedience today leads to strength and wisdom tomorrow
👨👩👧 Parent Tip:
Ask your kids:
“What’s one way you can show respect or obedience to your parents today—even if you don’t feel like it?”
If this episode spoke to your family, post about it in a Facebook group or share it with your kids’ pastor at church. Let’s help more families join the Carpool Crew!
