Children's Bible Club

     Mrs. Carolyn Hobbs, known and loved by children as "Aunt Carolyn," is director and storyteller for The Children's Bible Club, a weekly broadcast heard coast to coast and abroad.  Her unique ability makes Gospel stories come alive and appeal to young and old alike. As a speaker for Christian teacher's workshops, she helps and challenges God's people to reach boys and girls for the Lord Jesus Christ. At Grace Bible Church, "Aunt Carolyn" helps in the ministry in music, in the Christian School, and whatever way she can. Her heart's desire is to be true to the Lord Jesus Christ and to see boys and girls and grown-ups trust Christ and serve Him. Now that you’ve read the official introduction let "Aunt Carolyn" tell you about The Children's Bible Club and how that came to be!

     What a joyful place for kids! But where did it all come from? In 1954, when I was a little younger than I am now, The Children's Bible Club began as a half-hour "live" radio broadcast with "live" children from Sunday School and neighborhood Bible classes. My husband, Pastor Dayton Hobbs, helped round the children up in an old van to take them to the station, where he led the children's singing, and conducted Scripture memory and quiz time while "Aunt Carolyn" played the piano and then told the Bible story. The Lord blessed that simple outreach to boys and girls in the area, but after a time, the broadcast was changed to fifteen minutes, taped, duplicated, and sent to a growing number of radio stations to use in their children's programming schedules.  Interest and response has grown until The Children's Bible Club is now heard on forty-four stations in the United States, on several Atlantic and Pacific Islands, and world-wide on short wave, satellite, and the internet at FBNRadio.  People, who have heard "Aunt Carolyn's" delightful, Biblically-sound stories, have often asked for copies. Her Collection of Visualized Gospel storybooks and other children's books are an outgrowth of her storytelling ministry.
