and what's better than a train ride featuring a presentation of the Gospel?

Trains, Kids, & the Gospel

"Then little children were brought to Him that He might put His hands on them and pray, but the disciples rebuked them. But Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.' And He laid His hands on them and departed from there."

(Matthew 19:13-15)

Last Christmas, we had a couple thousand people come to our campus at Great Hills Baptist Church. We had a blast sharing the Gospel of Jesus and providing fun entertainment for all ages. The big attraction at our Christmas @ Great Hills event was the trains. We rented two trains and kept them running for three nights. Each train ride included a narrated tour about the birth, life, death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus.

Almost everyone loves a good train ride, especially children. Train rides for kids are appealing because they allow the children time to take in the sights and sounds while moving slowly. The next time you are at the zoo, park, or mall and you see children on a train, notice the smiles on their faces.

Our church decided that we would buy our own trains. In about six weeks, these two trains pictured below will make their permanent home at our church:
Jesus loves children. In Matthew 18, you can just picture Him leaning down, looking them in the eyes, blessing them, and praying over them. Have you ever noticed that children love Jesus and are naturally drawn to Him? When you teach a child about Jesus Christ, they enjoy learning about Him. A child must be taught not to love Jesus. Jesus said the kingdom of heaven can be compared to a child. I believe that is so because citizens of the kingdom of heaven and children are humble and love the King of the Kingdom. They also enjoy being in His presence. Heaven will consist of people who want to be there.

If you are in the Austin, TX area December 9-11, 2022, be sure and go online and book your free train ride, and come enjoy the ride! You will love it, but your kids and grandkids will especially enjoy riding the train and seeing the live scenes portraying Jesus' wonderful life.

Choo Choo! All aboard! I love a good train ride!
