In today’s episode of the Tiny Theologians Easter series, Farmer Caroline joins us from the orchard to explore the meaning behind the fig tree. As she checks on her trees, she shares a surprising story about Jesus and a fig tree that looked healthy on the outside but had no fruit. Through this moment, we learn that Jesus cares not just about how things look on the outside, but about what is happening in our hearts. Today’s symbol is the fig leaf, which reminds us that God desires lives that bear real fruit—love, joy, peace, and more—through the work of His Spirit in us. This story shows us that we cannot produce that kind of fruit on our own, but that Jesus gives us new hearts that grow good fruit from the inside out.
Scripture Passage: Mark 11:12–14 (NIV)
