5 Loaves + 2 Fish + Jesus = everyone fed!

5 Loaves + 2 Fish + Jesus = everyone fed!

Hello Max7 fans!

When Jesus thanked God for 5 small barley loaves and 2 fish, a beautiful miracle was happening. Here are 2 NEW videos for you to discover the care and compassion of Jesus! They are suitable for all ages.

From the Bible story narrated in Matthew’s Gospel, HERE IS Jesus feeds the 5000. If you want a translation, please send me an audio file of you reading Matthew 14:13-21 in your language. You will need to pause between each verse so we can locate the audio in the story -  we can add it to the video for you!

What is it like for children as they hear stories about Jesus and wonderwhat was it like to eat a miracle for lunch?” In this re-imagining, the video-makers have created the story from the perspective of the boy who had 5 loaves and 2 fish – he may have had a front-row-seat to A Miracle for Lunch! Use this wordless video to explore the wonder of meeting Jesus.

You might want to explore and wonder by asking questions like:

  • I wonder why the boy gave his food to Jesus? 
  • I wonder how the boy felt when he saw his small amount of food feed thousands of people?
  • Why is it important that there was leftover food?
  • What do we understand better about Jesus because of this story?
  • What questions would you like to ask Jesus?
