Nathan
Look, everyone! I made a really tall tower! It's so tall, I think it might reach the sky!
Ryder
Wow, Nathan! That’s really tall!
Nathan
Yeah, it’s the tallest tower ever! I think if it were tall enough, it could reach heaven!
George
(whispers to Ryder)
Remember what we learned today, Ryder. We don’t want to argue. Let’s listen first!
Ryder
(quietly)
Right, let’s listen to Nathan and then share something from the Bible.
George
Your tower is really big, Nathan! But did you know that heaven isn’t really a place we can reach by building something tall? Heaven is a special place where Jehovah is. And He will bring people back to life on the earth, not in heaven.
Ryder
Yeah! The Bible says that Jehovah will make the earth beautiful, and we can live on it forever, just like He planned for Adam and Eve in the beginning!
Nathan
Oh, really? I didn’t know that. I thought heaven was the place everyone went when they died.
Ryder
It’s okay, Nathan! The Bible tells us that Jehovah’s original plan was for people to live forever on earth, and He’s going to make it even better! We can learn more about it from the Bible!
George
Yeah, Jehovah loves us and wants us to live happily on the earth with Him forever!
Mom
Great job, George and Ryder! You remembered to listen to Nathan first, and then you shared a kind, Bible-based thought. That’s how Paul taught others—by being patient, listening, and sharing what he knew without arguing.
George
Yeah! We listened and didn’t argue, and then we shared what we learned from the Bible!
Ryder
I’m glad we listened first. I didn’t want to make Nathan feel bad, but I wanted to help him learn the truth.
Nathan
Thanks, George and Ryder! I like learning new things! I’ll think about that—living forever on the earth sounds nice!
