John the Baptist

When Chris is faced with a challenge between choosing to act truthfully or to take the easy and more “fun” pathway, Superbook whisks the kids back to meet John the Baptizer. During an exciting journey that takes the kids from witnessing John preach and baptize on the Jordan River, all the way through to his incarceration and ultimate death at the hands of Herodias and King Herod, Chris comes to understand what it means to live truthfully and point others toward in the direction of being more like Jesus. When Chris returns home, he applies what he’s learned. Although it doesn’t change the boy he is trying to help, Chris himself is that much stronger, for the effort he’s putting in and for the experience of meeting John the Baptizer firsthand.
