Series

The series is non-sectarian and features twelve stories from the Hebrew Bible. The episodes have been reviewed by an Advisory Board including Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein (founder of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews), Nathan Hatch (president of Wake Forest University), Reg Grant (professor of pastoral ministries of the Dallas Theological Seminary) and Christian apologist Ed Decker.

Unlike other animated series based on Bible stories, these programs are not based on modern characters interacting with Biblical figures, but rather provide dramatic retelling of the Biblical stories themselves.

Over the years supplementary learning materials have been added to the series. They are used in Christian and LDS churches across denominations, Jewish Community Centers, and by home educators and families. In addition, public schools and libraries use them in comparative religion curricula.
