True Tale Trail Episode 7: Thanksgiving Episode

Listen now to the new episode on Apple PodcastsSpotify or Amazon Music.

Happy Thanksgiving! To help you prepare your kids for Thanksgiving week we have a fun episode of the True Tale Trail podcast that’s all about turkeys! What do turkeys have to do with the Bible?

Well, as it turns out turkeys have incredible eyesight. They can see almost all the way around themselves (a 270 degree field of vision!) and can see ultraviolet light undetected by the human eye! In other words, turkeys can spot things people miss.

Unfortunately, that’s not all we humans miss. Sometimes we miss out on God’s activity and blessings in our lives too! All too often our eyes are focused on ourselves instead of on God and His goodness.

In today’s episode we’ll be talking about developing thankful hearts and thankful eyes that see how good God has been to us! When we train ourselves to look for God’s blessings — big and small — we start to see them everywhere. We call that having thankful eyes, and it changes everything.

Download the “Thankful Eyes Worksheet” to send your kids on a thankfulness scavenger hunt looking for good things God has placed in their lives.

True Tale Trail Episode 4: Walking with God

Have you ever gone on a walk with someone you really enjoy spending time with—maybe a family member, a friend, or even your dog? Walking together means sticking close, talking, laughing, and sharing the adventure.

In this week’s brand-new episode of The True Tale Trail, we’re asking a big question: What does it mean to walk with God?

We’ll head back to the very beginning of the Bible to meet a man named Enoch, who lived in a world where most people were walking the wrong way. But Enoch was different—he chose to walk faithfully with God. And the amazing part? You and I can do that too!

Through this episode, kids will discover that walking with God isn’t about taking a hike or climbing a mountain. It’s about staying close to God every day—trusting Him, talking with Him, and following His lead, no matter where life’s trail takes us.
