Annie"s MiniBFF Podcast

That Sounds Fun Network

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.

Annie"s MiniBFF Podcast ·

2024/03/18

So miniBFFs, let me ask you a question. Do you know how to walk on water? Because I sure don’t! But in today’s story we are going to read about one person who had no problem walking on water, Jesus. Not only did he walk on water he walked on water in the middle of a huge storm! I mean trying to balance on water has to be hard enough already, add crazy waves all around you and it just seems even more impossible! But one thing we are for sure learning around here is that nothing is impossible with

2024/03/11

In our story today we learn about a time when Jesus spent the whole day teaching a whole lot of people. A group of 5,000 people to be exact. And they had loved hearing him teach so much that they forgot about dinner! Suddenly there were a lot of hungry people that Jesus needed to feed. Guess what miniBFFs. Jesus did feed 5000 people. And I can’t wait for you to hear how he did it! This story, The Hungry Crowd, comes from the I Wonder book and can be found on page 162. You can also read more about

Did you know that one time there was this really big storm? It was so big that it even scared the disciples!! And you know who was with them when they were afraid. Jesus. Yes! Jesus was with them and he was even asleep the whole time this big storm was brewing! But when the disciples woke him up, Jesus wasn’t at all worried. I can’t wait for you to listen to today's episode to find out why this storm didn’t bother Jesus one bit! This story, Jesus Calms the Storm, comes from The Tiny Truths

Episode 52: The Farmer

Annie"s MiniBFF Podcast ·

2024/02/26

One way Jesus liked to tell about God is through stories called parables. We get to hear about one today in our story about The Farmer and where he plants his seeds. Jesus uses this parable to teach us not only about planting your seeds in the right soil, but also having your heart in the right place. That's the thing about parables, there is always a connection at the end of the story to the real message Jesus is trying to teach us.This story, The Farmer, comes from the book I Wonder and can be

Episode 51: What Jesus Said

Annie"s MiniBFF Podcast ·

2024/02/19

What Jesus Said miniBFFs, have you ever heard about the Sermon on the Mount? I know, it’s kind of a funny name right? But the Sermon on the Mount is a very important message that Jesus gave to a crowd of people about being a follower of God. Today’s story is an example of one of the many reasons why I am so thankful to have the Bible because it tells us about all the very important things that Jesus taught while He was on earth. This story, What Jesus Said, comes from the book I Wonder and can be

Episode 50: Jesus Helps and Heals

Annie"s MiniBFF Podcast ·

2024/02/12

There is nothing I love more than reading about Jesus healing those who need healing! Right, miniBFFS?? In our story today, Jesus shows us that He loves everyone by taking care of the people who were not welcomed by others. He helps someone who is blind, someone who couldn’t walk, and someone who had horrible sickness that no one wanted to be around. Jesus not only wanted to be around them, He wanted to heal them. This story, Jesus Helps and Heals, comes from The Tiny Truths Illustrated Bible and

Episode 49: A Little Girl and a Poor, Frail Lady

Annie"s MiniBFF Podcast ·

2024/02/05

miniBFFs, we really love the story for this episode because we get to witness Jesus perform not one, but two, miracles. This is the story about a father who wanted his little girl to get better and about a woman who had been sick for a very long time and also wanted to get better. Spoiler alert - Jesus heals them both! But the way that these miracles happened is very different. This story, A Little Girl and a Poor Frail Lady, comes from the Jesus Storybook Bible and can be found on page 214. You

Annie"s MiniBFF Podcast ·

2024/01/29

Did you know that Jesus cares for you so much that no matter what, He will never stop loving you? It’s true, miniBFFs! And that is a topic we are learning about in this episode with the story of the woman at the well. This woman felt a lot of shame and sadness about the things she had done and thought no one loved her. But Jesus was about to tell her how much He loved her and how He had come to save her. This story, The Woman at the Well, comes from the I Wonder Bible and can be found on page 132

Annie"s MiniBFF Podcast ·

2024/01/22

So we know Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist from our episode last week. But what happened after that? Well, Jesus spent a lot of time in the desert of all places! That’s probably not where I would go right after being baptized, but it is where Jesus went and for a good reason. We also learn about Jesus calling his disciples and how important it was for Jesus to have close friends too. This story, Let’s Go, comes from the Jesus Storybook Bible and can be found on page 208.

Episode 46: John the Baptist

Annie"s MiniBFF Podcast ·

2024/01/15

This episode today is all about John the Baptist. It is so important that we take time to learn about him because he is a very good example of wanting to tell everyone about Jesus. Even before John the Baptist had even met Jesus face to face, he knew that Jesus was someone that everyone needed to know about. This story, John the Baptist, comes from the I Wonder book and can be found on page 114. We have teamed up with Zonder Kids this season to learn all about the gospels by reading stories from

This episode tells the story of Zacchaeus and how climbing the tree made a big change in his heart and the hearts of those around him.
