  • Download and view a short video clip showing some parts of the program.
  • Download just the Talents Stewardship Game - open to all. This "talents.swf" file is a "flash" game that plays in your browser when you give it permission. You may ignore the distribution warning and freely share or upload the file.

In each interactive lesson, the story is retold through animation, narration, and interactive options. Each also includes questions for discussion, background notes, and learning activities. Story of Creation includes a unique and fun reflection activity. Jacob and Esau has a "Jacob and God Wrestling Game Quiz." Esther includes a quiz and a "Boo Haman!" button. Zaccheus has a life application game and "measuring your faith" activity. And Talents and Pounds (burying your gifts) ends with a fun "onscreen board game" about stewardship for young people.

Each story is drawn in a cartoon style with fun character voices and a sense of humor. Longer stories are condensed and each story is told with kid-friendly language that is true to the scripture and its meaning. The treatment of the Creation and Adam and Eve stories is modern and mainline - emphasizing the meaning and life application for us today.

Age Range: Each story and most activities are suitable for Ages 5 to 12. Some content is especially for older kids and can be skipped.

System: Windows XP, 7, 8, 10, and 11.
