Episode Synopsis (Source Amazon):
1 - "Birds of a Feather, Fish Together" - The wedding celebration of Freddie and Fiona Finch is headed for disaster! Iesodo steps in to calm everyone's ruffled feathers and make the event a success.
2 - "Love Your Enemies" - Zack the tax collector doesn't play by the rules. Iesodo shows the flock that treating those who are mean to us with kindness really does make a big difference.
My thoughts:
IESODO or 'The Way Of Jesus' in Japanese is the latest video series based on the most influential figure of our times: Jesus and as you guessed, the most enduring best seller of the last 2000 years: The Bible.
IESODO is a kind and wise white Dove who lives in the Holy Land in a beautiful Cypress tree located on the shores of a vast lake (known to us as the Sea of Galilee).
As leader of his flock, he spreads a message of love and kindness wherever he goes. His lovable bird friends are very different from one another but there is a common point amongst them: Since they have met the Teacher, their lives have changed forever.
Folks, this is a splendid opportunity for any family to teach positive values to little ones of course and you will not want to miss it!
Director Jared Hankins stated:
"People of faith will be reminded and appreciate the reflection of Jesus. People who are not of Faith will appreciate the values, good teaching and entertainment. There truly is something for everyone and for all ages."
Each episode is based on well known parables, as noted in the special features and displays a keen understanding on how to witness in His name even for the littlest one amongst us!
Included with bibles references, are sing a longs certain to have everyone singing and clapping in tune and fun and games to involve the whole family!

Oh, I want to see this now, Noelle. I am such a bird lover. You're never too old to see an animated movie. I still watch Beauty and the Beast whenever I get the chance hehehe.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice Sunday.

Sheri, it's a wonderful way to introduce little ones to Parables but it is also so upbeat, I found myself singing (and yes, dancing!) to the music! I only wish we had these when our children were little (instead of Tom and Jerry or such!).
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday,
