Naomi’s Change of Heart with Superbook

Share This article

In a bustling town in Indonesia, 11-year-old Naomi’s life was far from easy. Her parents, both working as cleaning service staff at a private company, were away from home from morning until evening. This frequently left Naomi and her two younger siblings to fend for themselves. Without guidance, Naomi often found herself being harsh with her siblings and neglecting household chores, creating a tense and chaotic home environment.

One Sunday, everything changed for Naomi. During Sunday school, the Superbook episode "He Is Risen!" was shown. This episode, depicting the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross to redeem humanity’s sins, struck a deep chord within her. As she watched, tears welled up in her eyes. Naomi was profoundly moved by the story of Jesus’ love and sacrifice.

Reflecting on her own behavior, Naomi felt a wave of remorse for her disobedience towards her parents and her harshness towards her siblings. Compelled by this newfound understanding to make amends, she decided to write a heartfelt letter of apology to her parents. With tears streaming down her face, Naomi handed the letter to her parents and sincerely apologized. 

Since that day, Naomi has transformed into a new person. The love and sacrifice she learned about through Superbook had a profound impact on her behavior and her relationships. Naomi has become obedient and responsible, taking care of her household chores without being asked. More importantly, she now treats her younger siblings with kindness and gentleness, creating a harmonious and loving atmosphere at home. 

Naomi’s story is a powerful example of how Superbook can bring hope and transformation to children’s lives. By making biblical stories accessible and engaging, Superbook helps children connect with the Word of God and experience Jesus’ love in a meaningful way. Naomi’s journey from disobedience to compassion highlights the incredible power of faith and the importance of sharing these stories with young hearts.

Superbook has the potential to reach even more children, offering them the same hope and transformation experienced by Naomi. We invite you to join this mission.
