Bringing the Bible to Life in Your Family
Jason and Brittany Taylor sold their home, minimized their lifestyle, and became full time RV residents to save money to go on the mission field. While homeschooling their two sons, Brittany introduced them to her favorite animated series from childhood, Superbook.
Brittany recalls, “I think the first time I showed Superbook I was like, "How is this going to land?" Because I loved it as a kid and I just watched their faces.”
Jason adds, “They were surprising me in many ways, Bryson’s reading scripture, you know they’re tying it in with their reading and learning.
Brittany continues, “When I would start Bible in the morning it would be like, "We're going to watch Superbook. I want to watch two episodes today. I want to watch three." I'm like, "No, we're going to do one." And that really told me that, "Okay, Bible's going to be exciting."
Their son Bryson describes an episode, “Either Chris Troy or Gizmo get in a problem, and then Superbook comes and teaches them something about a story of the Bible. And then at the end of the story they fix the problem with what they learned in the Superbook.”
“When I'm at work I know that they're really learning,” says Jason. “Because when I get home it's, "Hey, what Superbook did you guys watch today tell me about it. And finally I started watching them a little bit and I was like, "Wow!" I was like, "These are very well done."
Their youngest, Noah chimes in, “Superbook is my favorite God show. And I learn about Jesus every time I watch it every day.”
Brittany adds, “Then we found the app that is Superbook and it has games and it has videos and it has the Bible.”
“We get out the Bible, we do scriptures,” says Bryson. “We even do Bible background, and it tells us what they used in the Superbook and where it was in biblical times. And then there's signposts where it tells them about how that relates to Jesus.”
Jason states, “It's almost like you have the actual Bible and then the Superbook and then real life and it seems like they're starting to kind of make connections on all that.”
Bryson responds, “Someone does really something bad to you and you have to think like, "Man, I can forgive them right now and show mercy to them.”
“Honestly the signposts when it talks about Christ are teaching me, and I have a master's in divinity and I'm like, "I didn't know that." So it has this way of relating to all ages,” says Brittany.
All over the world families like the Taylors can enjoy Superbook episodes and the app for free, thanks to generous donors like you.
Brittany warmly states, “Superbook has been the, and I'm really not exaggerating, the greatest gift to our family. And it was a gift to me as a little girl and it’s a gift that’s being given to my children. And I think that’s so special because there’s nothing more precious than giving your kids Jesus.”
