The One O'Clock Miracle: A True Story About Trusting the Words of Jesus (slightly imperfect)

A beautifully told true story that shows children the power of Jesus’ words — and why they can trust Him completely.

Based on the true story from John 4:46–54, The One O’Clock Miracle tells how an official hurried home after Jesus promised, “Your son will live.” Without seeing any proof, he believed Jesus’ words — and discovered that they were true.

This faith-filled story helps children see that Jesus’ words are always powerful and trustworthy, even when we can’t see what’s happening. Written by Alison Mitchell and illustrated by Catalina Echeverri, this book captures the wonder and excitement of the Gospel story through expressive artwork and simple yet profound storytelling.
