The Shortest Sermon

[Song] “Sing them over again to me, wonderful words of life.  Let me more of their beauty see, wonderful words of life.”

Hello, my name is Miss Barb!  Welcome to Lifeline English, the podcast that helps you know God and know English.

You can read the written script for today’s lesson online at lifelineenglish.com.

Today I want to teach you two words.

The first word is destroy.  To destroy means to hurt or damage something so much that it ends or dies.  The ocean waves destroyed my sand castle.  The washing machine destroyed his cell phone.  

The other word is believe. To believe means to trust or agree that something or someone is true.  I believe it will rain tomorrow.   I believe the weather forecast on TV.  Do you believe in space aliens who travel in UFO’s?  Does he believe Barack Obama was a good president? 

I also want to teach you about cardinal and ordinal numbers.  I’m sure you already know the cardinal numbers in English.  Cardinal numbers are used for counting things.  They begin with one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.  Ordinal numbers are used for putting things in order.  The ordinal numbers begin like this: first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth.

Story 10: God Judges the Man

[Song] “Sing them over again to me, wonderful words of life.  Let me more of their beauty see, wonderful words of life.”

Hello, I’m Mrs. B!  Welcome to Lifeline English, the podcast that helps you know God and know English.

Today I want to teach you three words.

The first word is weed.  Weed rhymes with “need”.  Repeat the word “weed”.  Weed.  A weed is a plant that we don’t want. Carrots and beans will grow if you plant carrot and bean seeds. You don't have to plant weed seeds! Weeds grow on their own.  If your garden has weeds, you need to pull them out of the ground.  Then the good plants will have room to grow.
