Overcoming Giants with Superbook
On a Saturday in May, a powerful celebration unfolded in Portugal in honor of International Children’s Day—one that went far beyond balloons and games. In a heartfelt outreach focused on child safety and empowerment, families gathered to learn, grow, and be inspired. The event addressed critical issues such as sexual abuse prevention, recognizing warning signs, and knowing the steps to take in the event of an incident. It was a time of deep learning and healing, especially for the children who attended.
At the heart of the event was a special screening of the CBN Animation’s Superbook episode “A Giant Adventure,” featuring the story of David and Goliath. In this animated retelling, children watched as young David, armed only with faith and a sling, defeated the mighty giant Goliath. The message was clear and powerful: even the smallest among us can be used by God to accomplish great things.
This story resonated deeply with the children, many of whom face their own giants—fear, trauma, and uncertainty. Through Superbook, they saw that courage doesn’t come from size or strength, but from trusting in God. The episode became more than entertainment; it became a source of hope.
The event was not only impactful for the children but also for the parents and caregivers who participated. By combining practical safety education with spiritual encouragement, the outreach created a safe space for families to talk openly and begin healing together.
This is the heart of CBN Animation’s Superbook—bringing the stories of the Bible to life in ways that speak to real-world challenges. Whether in a classroom in Thailand, a church in Africa, or a community gathering in Portugal like this one, Superbook is helping children connect with the Word of God, experience Jesus’s love, and discover their identity and purpose.
