Review of: Great Bible Discovery Series
Overall rating: Thumbs up!
Here's a fav video series of mine. It's called "Great Bible Discovery Series." One description reads as follows:
Designed as a documentary for children, adults also will enjoy the 9 Part Series as a wonderful learning tool for the home and classroom. Each episode features a lively interactive approach with live action mixed with storybook style animation, the simple and direct explanation of Scripture and a final quiz that serves as a learning summary. Recommended for children ages 6-12
The "host", David Mead, reads the story as storybook animation is shown. He stops often, it cuts to him in some kind of related wacky costume and location, and he explains what's just been read -- always bringing it back to Jesus! He's rather corny, but just enough so it's humorous. The video can be run straight through without stopping for discussion, as he is the teacher throughout, including a Q&A at the end.
