''Animated Stories from the New Testament'' is a video series produced by Nest Family Entertainment and Rich Animation Studios, providing dramatic retelling of the Bible stories themselves. The series was created to be a nondenominational Christian educational tool for parents, caregivers, and educators. The series features twenty-four stories from the New Testament, including many of the Parables of Jesus, the story of his birth, death and resurrection. The series concludes with two episodes about Paul the Apostle and his missionary journeys. The series aims to be nonsectarian, and has 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 and previously provost of the University of Notre Dame), Reg Grant (professor of pastoral ministries of the Dallas Theological Seminary) and Christian apologist, Ed Decker. Originally released directly to video, the movies are now available on DVD. Nest Learning distributes the programs and several of the episodes are now on a limited broadcast run on Trinity Broadcasting Network and BYUtv. Over the years supplementary learning materials have been added to the series designed to help develop core curriculum knowledge and skills, and aiming to build what the series' creator regard as positive character traits. They are used in over 100,000 churches, as well as by home educators and families. In addition public schools and libraries in comparative religion curricula use them. The series was directed by Richard Rich, the former Disney director who also directed ''The Swan Princess'' trilogy, and other animated educational series for churches, schools, libraries, home educators and families with Nest Family Entertainment, the ''Animated Hero Classics'' and ''Animated Stories from the Bible'' and the ''K10C: Kids' Ten Commandments'' with TLC Entertainment (who also produced The Adventures of McGee and Me. ==Awards and recognition== The individual programs within the series have earned awards and endorsements including the "family approved" seal from the Dove Foundation, The Parent's Choice Foundation award, the "Award of Excellence" from the Film Advisory Board, the Director's Choice Award from Early Childhood News, KIDS FIRST!, and received the highest rating from the Practical Homeschooling Magazine. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Animated Stories from the New Testament」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
