Nimrod, or “Nim,” is a chihuahua who usually speaks before he thinks, often resulting in hilarious opinions.
↓ TranscriptNim: Professor Amos, my master and I are fighting lately.
Amos: Sounds like the two of you need a good obedience class.
Nim: I don't think so. We tried that last year and he was no more obedient coming out as he was going in.
Many of us need an "obedience to God" class!
↓ TranscriptNim: What's up, Amos? Why aren't you dressed for exploring? We said we were going to look for hidden treasure.
Amos: I know. But I gave it a lot of thought and I realized something. I've already found my treasure!
Have you found your treasure in Christ?
Gen 5:32-10:1
↓ TranscriptNim: Was Noah's wife Joan of Ark?
Abby: No! Who in the world would ever think that?
Nim: Apparently we haven't me, my name is Nim.
No one knows the name of Noah's wife because it's never mentioned in the Bible.
↓ TranscriptCon: I hear you told Nim food has no calories if eaten in church.
Amos: That's right!
Con: No, that's wrong. Food always has calories.
Amos: Really? Oh, well. No harm, no foul.
Con: Then I guess you haven't seen him.
Amos: Seen who?
Nim: Hi guys, what's shaking?
Don't believe everything you hear.
↓ TranscriptAmos: I can't wait for the church dinner this week! I'm going to have 2 hamburgers, a giant plate of fries, some of those big pickles, a couple of chocolate milks and two...no...three desserts!
Nim: Hold on, Amos...I thought you were on a diet. That's a lot of calories.
Amos: I am. But food you eat in church doesn't have any calories.
Nim: Hot dog!
If only that were true.
↓ TranscriptAmos: The vet made my master put me on a diet.
Nim: How's that going?
Amos: I realized that being on a diet is a lot like our journey as Christians. Every morning, we have to wake up and make a decision to be faithful or not.
Nim: Yeah, but at least with a diet, you don't have the devil whispering in your ear to be bad.
Amos: I don't know. I've always thought the devil might come dressed as a cupcake.
Just like in dieting, we must remain resolute in our Christian walk.
↓ TranscriptNim: Have you talked to your pastor about your fear of thunder?
Con: I don't think he would understand. He's not afraid of anything. Not rolled-up papers, loud noises, shiny floors, not even thunder.
Nim: Wow. He's not just a Pastor. He's more like a superhero.
Con: Seriously.
Your church leaders can help you reduce your fears.
↓ TranscriptNim: So you say Jesus has prepared a thing for me in Heaven?
Con: No, a place.
Nim: The thing is a place?
Con: No, Jesus has prepared a place.
Nim: To put the thing in?
Con: No, to put YOU in.
Nim: I'll be put in some...THING?
Con: You're not listening to me. Jesus is preparing a place for you. End of story.
Nim: Okay, I get it. Now tell me more about the thing.
Jesus has prepared a place for you in Heaven.
↓ TranscriptAmos: So your quest for world domination has come to a close, huh?
Nim: Yeah, I finally understood that I was putting my faith in money instead of in God. And that God is the only one who can have dominion over the world.
Amos: That's a very mature attitude.
Nim: I know. And now I can focus on what I REALLY want.
Amos: What's that?
Nim: Pure, raw power!
Do you do things to bring glory to God or to bring glory to yourself?
↓ TranscriptCon: What's wrong?
Nim: Abby pointed out something bad I've been doing. I was trying to get rich quick so I could have power over my own destiny, instead of trusting God to care for me.
Con: Cheer up, little guy. At least you see the error of your ways.
Nim: I know. But now I don't get to dominate the world!
Only a fool relies on himself over God.
