What if God's love wasn't earned by following rules, but freely given? Join us in John 4 as we explore the shocking encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman, where not even things that were most frowned upon could stop the compassion and love of Jesus. We will hear how Jesus offers "living water," to all who believe. This transformative conversation showcases Jesus' focus on those who feel undeserving of love and redemption — inviting people from all walks of life to be a part of God's family. From the cultural tensions between Jews and Samaritans to the invitation to accept Jesus’ living water, this story highlights the transformative nature of Jesus' love — a love that is offered to all.  After you listen, head over to ⁠readkaleidoscope.com⁠ and check out the podcast tab to submit your answers for a chance to win fantastic prizes!

Hey friends. Today’s story is a tough one—but don’t worry, it’s part of the greatest rescue plan ever. We’re heading into John chapter 19, where Jesus shows just how much He loves us—even when everything gets really, really hard. In today’s story Jesus, the true King, is treated like a criminal. The crowd yells “Crucify Him!” and Pilate, the Roman ruler, gives in. Jesus is hurt, mocked, and made to carry His own cross. But even when things seem scary or unfair, Jesus isn’t out of control. He’s still King. He’s still good. And He’s still carrying out God’s perfect rescue plan. This part of the story reminds us just how deep God’s love really goes—so deep that He gave everything to bring us back to Him.Podcast Questions:After they hurt Jesus, what did they put on him?When Pilate told the people that he found no guilt in Jesus, how did they respond?What happened to Jesus that night after all the mistreatment he received?Remember, you can submit your answers here, for a chance to win a prize!Recommended ResourcesPre-Order Now!

Today’s story takes us into a garden at night, where something really important—and really hard—happens.Jesus had just finished praying with His disciples when Judas showed up… but not to pray. Judas brought a group of soldiers and leaders with torches and weapons. They came looking for Jesus, but guess what? Jesus didn’t run or hide—He stepped forward and said, “I am He.” Even in danger, Jesus cared for His friends. He told the soldiers, “Let my disciples go,” because Jesus is the Good Shepherd who protects His sheep.But Peter… well, he got scared. First, he tried to fight back with a sword (and even cut off someone’s ear—yikes!). But Jesus said, “Put it away. This is part of God’s plan.” Then, after Jesus was arrested, Peter followed from a distance—but when people asked if he knew Jesus, he found himself scared again.Meanwhile, Jesus was being questioned, but He stood strong. Even though this night was full of fear and sadness, we see how brave and loving Jesus is. And we also see how people, like Peter, can mess up—but Jesus still loves them and has a plan to make things right.Podcast Questions:Where did Jesus and his disciples go after He finished praying?Who approached Jesus in the Garden?Who did the people want to free, instead of Jesus?Remember, you can submit your answers here, for a chance to win a prize!Recommended ResourcesPre-Order Now!
