“Hot Rod” Magic Pen – the real pen that does real magic! A classic color-changing trick that’s easy to do, requires no setup, and works perfectly for Gospel object lessons.
The “Hot Rod” Magic Pen is a clever and easy-to-perform trick that has been a favorite of magicians for years. Both sides of the pen are shown to have multiple color dots. A spectator freely selects a color, and with just a wave of the pen, all the dots transform into the chosen color!
Easy to perform – no setup required
Classic effect, always gets a great reaction
Works for stage, classroom, or close-up settings
While the standard trick is not Gospel-themed, it can easily be adapted for ministry use. Here are a couple of powerful ways to connect the trick to Bible truth:
Teaching Ideas
Promises of God – Use the colors as a reminder of God’s promises. Have someone pick a color, then explain that God always keeps His promises. As you perform the trick, all the dots change to the chosen color—showing God’s faithfulness.
Wordless Book Colors – Use the colors to represent key Bible truths:
Black = Sin
Yellow/Gold = Heaven / Eternal Life
Red = Christ’s Blood
Blue = Baptism / Holy Spirit
Green = Christian Growth
Purple = Jesus as King
The “Hot Rod” Magic Pen is a fun, memorable way to mix amazement with meaning, making it perfect for children’s church, Sunday school, or outreach programs.
