About this listen

What if Jesus wasn’t mad at you? What if he was just...really, really nice?

In this gentle, funny, and surprisingly powerful children’s audiobook, Jesus Was Really, Really Nice reintroduces the world to a softer Savior—one who plays tag, shares snacks, hugs loud kids, and forgives fast.

Told in 20 tiny, tender chapters, this is a bedtime book for the heart. Written for kids 4+—but made to hit adults right in the soul—this audiobook disarms pain and replaces it with joy.

No sermons. No guilt. Just sandals, juice boxes, and the kind of kindness that can change the world.

Perfect for:

  • Kids raised inside or outside religion-progressive families who want to reframe Jesus
  • Sunday school teachers with a sense of humor
  • Anyone who’s ever felt excluded by faith
  • People who believe love should be louder than rules

Written by JJ, an author known for blending depth with heart, this book is a holy little miracle disguised as an audiobook.
