  I'm so glad you could join us today.
• 0:25
  Let's say our motto. Repeat after me.
• 0:27
  I will tell my friends. I will.
• 0:29
  Tell my. Friends, so they can know God.
• 0:33
  So they can know God. Here's something I know about
• 0:36
  God. God loves to give.
• 0:40
  Well, if that don't beat all, I've flown all over the city and
• 0:45
  I can't find a worm to eat anywhere.
• 0:48
  Worms. I guess birds like to eat worms,
• 0:52
  but not me. If I had a worm, I'd give it to
• 0:55
  you. Well, what am I going to do,
• 0:57
  Casey? I'm hungry.
• 1:00
  If I don't eat soon, I'm not going to have enough strength to
• 1:04
  fly. Well, let's pray, Polly.
• 1:06
  God doesn't want you to go hungry.
• 1:09
  How do you know? Maybe God doesn't like me flying
• 1:13
  so much. Don't be ridiculous.
• 1:16
  God made you a bird, and that's what birds do They fly.
• 1:20
  Fly and eat worms. Let's pray and ask God for some
• 1:24
  worms for you to eat. Do.
• 1:26
  You think God would give me some worms?
• 1:28
  Well, of course he would. God is a cheerful giver.
• 1:31
  A cheerful giver. What's that mean?
• 1:34
  Well, God loves to give to people, and he wants us to give
• 1:37
  to people too. The Bible says give and it will
• 1:40
  be given to you. Well, I can be a cheerful giver,
• 1:44
  I just need some worms. Well let's pray.
• 1:48
  Dear God I know you love Polly and you want to bless her.
• 1:52
  God she needs some worms to eat. Help her to find the worms you
• 1:56
  have for her in Jesus name, Amen.
• 2:00
  Amen. I just thought of a place to go
• 2:02
  look for some worms. When I find some, I'll bring
• 2:06
  some for you and the kids. No, don't.
• 2:12
  We don't eat worms. I don't eat worms.
• 2:16
  Do you? Hey kids, did you know that
• 2:21
  there are books about Chubby and Bree?
• 2:23
  They're available on Amazon and e-book and paperback formats.
• 2:36
  Up in a tree, hanging down from above a beehive, busily buzzing
• 2:41
  God's Love. Papa Bee, Mama Bee, Chubby and
• 2:45
  Bree buzzing God's way. Take a look and you'll see Bri
• 2:55
  was just busily buzzing about, buzzing up and down, buzzing in
• 2:59
  and out. She wanted to make some honey to
• 3:02
  eat. Honey that's sticky honey.
• 3:04
  That's sweet bees making honey. It's just what bees do.
• 3:09
  So Bree decided to make honey too.
• 3:12
  If I work all summer, from morning till night, I'd fill my
• 3:16
  honeycomb with honey delight. Bree started thinking bee
• 3:21
  thoughts of a treat. If I make more honey then I can
• 3:25
  eat, I can take honey to market to sell and make enough money to
• 3:31
  buy a bell. A bell, you might ask?
• 3:35
  Well, if you were a bee and you buzzed all day, buzz, buzz
• 3:40
  busily. A bell has a ring to it.
• 3:43
  Ring Ding a Ling to a bee a bell is a wonderful thing.
• 3:48
  She figured and planned and figured some more just how much
• 3:52
  honey she needed to store. She buzzed and she buzzed till
• 3:56
  her buzzer was sore to have enough honey.
• 3:59
  It was quite a chore. Mama, buzzed Bree, I'm.
• 4:03
  Done making honey. Will you help me sell it then
• 4:07
  with the money I'm going to buy a nice shiny bell.
• 4:12
  Well, Bree. Said Mama.
• 4:15
  I think that is swell. Now don't forget to give God
• 4:19
  your tithe, huh? Bumble, Bree.
• 4:22
  A tithe? What's a tithe?
• 4:25
  Mama explained it to Bree at the time.
• 4:28
  When you get a dollar, you give God a dime.
• 4:33
  A dime for each dollar. Bree's little wings froze.
• 4:38
  Her smile flipped right over. A frown there arose.
• 4:42
  Oh no, thought Bree as her little head fell.
• 4:47
  If I give to God, I can't buy a girl.
• 4:51
  Why aren't you happy? Asked Mama what's?
• 4:54
  Wrong. You seem so excited all summer
• 4:58
  long. And then Bree buzzed out an
• 5:01
  answer. So odd.
• 5:03
  I wasn't planning on giving to God.
• 5:06
  Mama just smiled as she held Bree close.
• 5:10
  A tithe isn't much. God's given the most.
• 5:14
  He gave us his Son to die for our sins.
• 5:18
  A tithe is the least that we can give him, but he's God.
• 5:24
  Bree argued. What does he need with my money?
• 5:28
  Asked Bree and Mama agreed. God doesn't need your money,
• 5:33
  that's true. God wants your heart so He can
• 5:36
  bless you. Bree started thinking about what
• 5:40
  Mama said. A smile reappeared where the
• 5:43
  frown was instead. She knew in her heart.
• 5:46
  Bees do things God's way, so I'll give my tithe in a bee
• 5:53
  happy way. With what was leftover, she
• 5:56
  buzzed to the mall. I hope I find something to buy
• 6:00
  after all. And when she arrived, she
• 6:04
  noticed on sale. Today is half price on every
• 6:10
  hour. Next time you're outside, listen
• 6:13
  close. If you hear buzz buzz, ring,
• 6:16
  Ding a Ling, then Bree is near. Hey Casey, want to go fishing
• 6:29
  with me? I can't right now, Stacy.
• 6:31
  The kids are here for the club meeting.
• 6:33
  What you got in the bucket? Oh, I've been collecting worms
• 6:36
  to put on the hook. Fish like worms, you know.
• 6:39
  Yeah, so do birds. Hey, I wonder if she's the
• 6:43
  reason Polly couldn't find any worms around here.
• 6:47
  Casey, can I ask you you a question?
• 6:49
  Well, sure, Stacy. What is it?
• 6:50
  Well. I've been thinking about giving
• 6:52
  away some of my toys. I have more than I can play with
• 6:56
  and there's a girl down the street that doesn't have any
• 6:58
  toys at all. I thought I could see if she
• 7:01
  wanted them. Stacy, that's a great idea.
• 7:04
  You know God loves a cheerful giver.
• 7:07
  Well, that settles it then. I'm going to do it right after I
• 7:11
  finish fishing. Oh no.
• 7:14
  What's the matter? My worms, they're all gone.
• 7:18
  They were just here a few minutes ago.
• 7:20
  Now how am I going to go fishing?
• 7:23
  You could use cheese. Cheese is a good fish bait.
• 7:27
  Cheese. Mom.
• 7:30
  Can you cut the cheese? Have you ever seen the seed
• 7:38
  before? Do you know what you're supposed
• 7:41
  to do with these? You dig a hole, you stick it in
• 7:44
  the ground, cover it back up, you water it, let the sunlight
• 7:48
  hit it, and eventually a plant grows that produces fruit.
• 7:54
  And inside all these fruits are more seeds.
• 7:58
  Then you can plant those seeds, and then you can have a lot more
• 8:01
  fruit that you can share and give to other people, which
• 8:05
  reminds me of our memory verse. Our memory verse today is Second
• 8:10
  Corinthians 97. God loves a cheerful giver.
• 8:16
  Can you say that with me? Say God loves.
• 8:18
  God loves. A cheerful giver.
• 8:20
  A cheerful giver. That reminds me, God himself is
• 8:26
  a cheerful giver. It's true.
• 8:29
  He loved us so much that he gave Jesus to die on the cross so
• 8:35
  that you and I could live a good life with God.
• 8:40
  When we pray and ask Jesus to come live in our hearts, we
• 8:44
  become sons and daughters of God.
• 8:47
  And God loves his children and wants to do good things for his
• 8:51
  children. And one of the things that he
• 8:54
  likes that we do is give to other people.
• 8:58
  Just like our memory verse, God loves a cheerful giver, and God
• 9:03
  also is a cheerful giver. Let's say our memory verse one
• 9:08
  more time. Say God loves.
• 9:11
  God loves a cheerful giver, a. Cheerful giver.
• 9:14
  Great. Job.
• 9:21
  Boys and girls, I haven't seen my friend Farmerdale in a while,
• 9:24
  so I thought we'd pay him a little visit.
• 9:26
  There's Farmerdale now. Farmerdale.
• 9:29
  Oh, hey there, Casey. You're just in time.
• 9:33
  I just finished planting my seed.
• 9:35
  What are you trying to grow? Corn.
• 9:39
  You hear that seed? I want you to grow up into a
• 9:42
  corn stalk full of ears of corn. You hear me?
• 9:46
  I'm just messing with you. I planted corn seeds so
• 9:50
  naturally they'll grow up to be corn.
• 9:52
  That's the way God made them. You reap what you sow, Casey.
• 9:56
  You. Really like farming, don't you,
• 9:58
  Farmerdale? You got that right, Casey.
• 10:01
  I like to call myself a cheerful farmer.
• 10:05
  Garmin reminds me of God. When I give my little bit of
• 10:08
  seed to God, he multiplies it back to me.
• 10:11
  That reminds me of a cheerful giver.
• 10:14
  When we give to God, He multiplies what we give to bless
• 10:18
  others. Have you ever heard the story of
• 10:20
  the little boy who gave Jesus his lunch?
• 10:23
  Jesus had been teaching thousands of people all day
• 10:26
  long, and they were getting hungry.
• 10:28
  So Jesus told his disciples to feed the people.
• 10:31
  But the disciples didn't have any food.
• 10:34
  That's when that little boy offered to give them his lunch.
• 10:37
  And Jesus took the boy's lunch. That lunch looked like a seed
• 10:41
  compared to all the thousands of hungry people.
• 10:44
  There was no way the little lunch had enough food to feed
• 10:47
  all those people. But Jesus gave thanks to God for
• 10:51
  it and then told his disciples to pass it around to the people.
• 10:55
  Everyone ate as much as they wanted and there were 12 baskets
• 10:59
  full of food leftover. That little boy was a cheerful
• 11:03
  giver. And so was Jesus.
• 11:06
  God loves a cheerful giver. Second Corinthians 97.
• 11:10
  That's good to know. Thanks, Farmer Dale.
• 11:14
  Anytime, Casey. Let's get our.
• 11:21
  Hearts and minds ready for the Bible verse.
• 11:25
  You're still here. Of course I'm still here.
• 11:29
  Where did you think I would be? Stacy said she was going to go
• 11:33
  fishing with you. I can't go right now, I have the
• 11:36
  clubhouse to do. OK, see ya.
• 11:39
  Hey, where do you think you're going fishing with Stacy?
• 11:42
  You have a Bible verse to learn. And a Bible story to listen to
• 11:47
  1st. X Nay, on the itching.
• 11:51
  Faye, what was that? That was pig Latin.
• 11:56
  Next on the fishing. Today's Bible verse is Second
• 11:59
  Corinthians 97. God loves a cheerful giver.
• 12:03
  Let's say it together, boys and girls.
• 12:05
  God loves a cheerful giver. God loves a cheerful giver.
• 12:10
  Oh, I got this one. God shoves a cheap old river
• 12:17
  Xnay on the Earth Bay. I got it wrong.
• 12:21
  Yeah, but isn't that why I can't go fishing?
• 12:25
  The river is cheap and old, no? Let's say it again, kids, God
• 12:31
  loves a cheerful giver. God loves a cheerful giver.
• 12:36
  So the river isn't cheap and old, No.
• 12:40
  OK. Second Corinthians 97 God loves
• 12:45
  a cheerful giver. Second Corinthians 97 God loves
• 12:50
  a cheerful giver. Now can I go fishing after the
• 12:54
  Bible story? You can.
• 12:56
  Now it's time for today's It's Bible Story brain.
• 13:02
  Oh, I can't wait to hear it and I can't wait to do it.
• 13:07
  It's the hearer and the doer. Of God's Word.
• 13:11
  Who's? Blessed.
• 13:25
  Great crowd of people followed Jesus because they saw him
• 13:28
  healing the sick, but they were hungry and there was nothing for
• 13:33
  them to eat. The disciples didn't know what
• 13:36
  to do. Look at all these people, where
• 13:39
  can we buy some food to feed them all?
• 13:41
  Lord, there's not a market around here for miles.
• 13:44
  There's over 5000 men, not counting the women and children.
• 13:49
  I'll go count the women and children.
• 13:51
  Lord, no one has any food except the little boy.
• 13:56
  He gave us his lunch, but it's not enough to do any good, not
• 14:01
  with all these people. What's in the lunch?
• 14:05
  Five bread rolls, 2 fish. Maybe we should just send
• 14:09
  everyone home. Have everyone sit down.
• 14:14
  Everyone sit down. I could have done that, Father.
• 14:19
  Thank you for this little boy's lunch.
• 14:22
  Use it to meet the need here today.
• 14:24
  Amen Andrew. Go get the other disciples to
• 14:27
  help you pass out the food. Food.
• 14:29
  What food? The lunch.
• 14:31
  Yes, pass it around. You're the boss.
• 14:37
  I give up on counting the kids. They won't sit still.
• 14:41
  They're running everywhere. These kids are sitting very
• 14:44
  still. They're not running around.
• 14:45
  Oh yeah, for you they behave. Go help Andrew pass out the food
• 14:49
  to the people we've. Got food from where?
• 14:58
  I, I don't believe it. I mean, I, I do believe it.
• 15:02
  What I mean is everyone ate until they were full, and now we
• 15:08
  have 12 baskets of leftovers, all from a little boy's lunch.
• 15:13
  Oh, and I saved you a plate of food.
• 15:20
  Where did we get all this food, Jesus?
• 15:25
  Where'd Jesus go? I'm back with the worms, Casey,
• 15:33
  just like I promised. Where'd you find the worms,
• 15:37
  Polly? They were all gathered together
• 15:39
  in a nice little bucket. It was a feast fit for a king.
• 15:43
  Anyway, I saved these for you. You guys can share, see ya.
• 15:51
  Well, that's nice of Polly, but I don't like worms and you don't
• 15:56
  need to eat worms either. But I do know what you need, and
• 15:59
  so does God. God wants to give you all of
• 16:02
  your needs. That's why he sent Jesus to die
• 16:05
  for our sins. God knew we needed Jesus in our
• 16:08
  hearts to help us live the way God wants us to.
• 16:12
  So if you've never asked Jesus into your heart, then let's pray
• 16:15
  together right now. Dear God, dear God, thanks for
• 16:19
  sending Jesus. Thanks for sending.
• 16:21
  Jesus. To die for my sins.
• 16:25
  To die for my sins. Jesus come into my be the boss
• 16:28
  of my life, be the boss of my life.
• 16:35
  In Jesus name. In Jesus name, Amen.
• 16:38
  Amen. Time for spiritual exercises.
• 16:43
  Everyone stand up on your feet. Here we go.
• 16:46
  You ready? Repeat after me.
• 16:48
  Stretch it up real high. I love the Lord.
• 16:52
  I love the Lord. With all my heart.
• 16:55
  With all my heart. Now show me your muscles.
• 16:59
  God is good. God is good.
• 17:02
  All the time. All the time.
• 17:05
  I'm not afraid. I'm not afraid.
• 17:08
  God is with me. God.
• 17:10
  Is with. Me good.
• 17:12
  Now show me your Superman pose by Jesus stripes.
• 17:17
  By Jesus stripes. I am healed.
• 17:20
  I am healed. Nice, let's work now.
• 17:23
  These are my favorite kinky push ups up down up.
• 17:28
  Down. I love others I.
• 17:31
  Love. Others like Jesus loves me.
• 17:33
  Like Jesus loves me. That was a good workout.
• 17:38
  All right, let's cool it down. Let's stretch it out.
• 17:42
  I obey my parents. I obey my.
• 17:45
  Parents, for this pleases God. For it pleases God.
• 17:50
  Oh, good job kids, Now just shake it out.
• 17:52
  Shake it out. Turn around if you want.
• 17:56
  Good job, kids. I'm proud of you.
• 18:01
  So one time Jesus was teaching a bunch of peoples and the
• 18:04
  disciples said to Jesus, Hey Jesus, probably everyone is
• 18:07
  getting hungry right now, maybe we should send them home for
• 18:09
  some tamales. Tamales.
• 18:12
  You know. Food, OH.
• 18:14
  Yeah, so Jesus says to disciples, he says don't send
• 18:17
  them home, you give them some comida.
• 18:20
  Comida. You know, food.
• 18:22
  But yeah, so the disciples says to Jesus, they say what stelloco
• 18:26
  that means, are you crazy? So they say to Jesus.
• 18:28
  They say we don't even have any burritos or nothing, man.
• 18:31
  Burritos. You know.
• 18:34
  Food. So Jesus tells them, he says go
• 18:37
  look around, somebody's got to have a torta or something.
• 18:39
  Torta. You know.
• 18:41
  Food, right? So they spread out and they find
• 18:44
  a little boy with some tortillas and pascals.
• 18:47
  No offense. Let me guess, some food?
• 18:50
  Yeah, some food. It's just a little boy's lunch,
• 18:54
  nothing special. No offense.
• 18:56
  Why would I be offended? Anyways, all they have is a
• 19:00
  lunch and there's like a million people there.
• 19:03
  A million. Not a million, like a million.
• 19:06
  About 5000 men, not counting the women or children.
• 19:09
  Man. That's like a million.
• 19:11
  I know right? Jesus takes a boys lunch and
• 19:14
  prays over it and then they pass the food to everybody and
• 19:18
  everybody eats until they are full.
• 19:20
  Everybody. Like a million peoples. 5000
• 19:24
  men, not counting women and children.
• 19:27
  I know, right? And they had 12 baskets full of
• 19:30
  leftovers. Leftovers.
• 19:32
  You know. Food.
• 19:33
  I know what leftovers are. I'll bet that little boy was
• 19:37
  happy that he gave Jesus his lunch.
• 19:39
  What? Happy is our word for today.
• 19:42
  Second Corinthians 97 says God loves a cheerful giver or a
• 19:47
  happy giver. We can be happy giving to God
• 19:50
  when we know that God is going to do something miraculous when
• 19:53
  we give to Him. We can.
• 19:55
  Think about it, that little boy could have shared has lunch with
• 19:58
  maybe one or two other people and there would be like a
• 20:01
  million other people still hungry.
• 20:04
  But when he gave it to Jesus, Jesus shared it with everybody.
• 20:08
  You know what would make me happy right now?
• 20:10
  What? Some tostadas, Frijoles, Chiles,
• 20:13
  rellenos, tacos, enchiladas. What am I saying?
• 20:19
  You want some fishy flakes. Fishy flakes.
• 20:22
  You know, food. What's the matter, fish?
• 20:27
  Aren't you hungry? I hope you're happy.
• 20:30
  Be glad you're not some little boy's lunch.
• 20:34
  Lunch with. You can hear and see more of
• 20:40
  Paco and the Fish telling stories about Jesus on your
• 20:44
  favorite podcast or video platform.
• 20:47
  Just search for Paco and the Fish.
• 20:56
  KC do you know what my favorite part of the clubhouse was today?
• 21:02
  Let me guess, you liked it when Polly gave me worms to eat?
• 21:06
  You ate worms. No, Polly gave me some worms for
• 21:11
  the kids and me to eat, but we don't like worms.
• 21:14
  I like worms. Gummy worms.
• 21:20
  So what was your favorite part of the clubhouse?
• 21:23
  I liked it when that girl was doing pinky push ups.
• 21:27
  She makes them look. Really easy fuzzy.
• 21:30
  She does pinky push ups at every clubhouse meeting.
• 21:34
  She does. Yes, that's part of our
• 21:37
  spiritual exercise. We do spiritual exercise.
• 21:42
  Oh brother, So what did you learn today?
• 21:46
  I learned that a gummy bear is a bear with no.
• 21:50
  Teeth. Get it gummy, no teeth.
• 21:54
  That's not what we learned today, Fuzzy.
• 21:57
  We learned that God loves a happy giver.
• 22:01
  I've been putting my offering money in the candy machine.
• 22:06
  Fuzzy when you given the offering, you were giving to
• 22:09
  God. Jesus said it is more blessed to
• 22:13
  give than receive, so be happy when you give.
• 22:17
  I'm happy when I buy candy. I'm happy when I buy candy too,
• 22:23
  but I'm happier when I give because I'm acting like God and
• 22:28
  God loves to give to us. Like the time that little boy
• 22:32
  gave his lunch to Jesus. Jesus ate a little boy's lunch.
• 22:37
  No, he prayed over it and passed it out to his disciples to give
• 22:42
  to the crowd of people. They fed over 5000 people that
• 22:47
  day from one little boy giving his lunch to Jesus.
• 22:52
  Oh, so when we give to God other.
• 22:55
  People get. Blessed, and you do too.
• 23:00
  God loves a cheerful giver. Second Corinthians 97.
• 23:04
  Can you say that Fuzzy? God loves a cheerful giver.
• 23:09
  Second Corinthians 97. Very good.
• 23:13
  Say goodbye, Fuzzy. Goodbye, Fuzzy.
• 23:18
  Goodbye kids, see you next time at the Jesus and Me Clubhouse.
• 23:25
  See you back again
