Adventures in Odyssey: The Fruit of the Spirit CD
Our kids loved listening to Adventures in Odyssey! With this collection, your family can enjoy over 4 hours (12 episodes) of character-building audio entertainment. The Odyssey characters learn that following God through the twists and turns of life produces fruit that makes every story that much sweeter. These are perfect for traveling, quiet time, or to listen to during work time. ~Amber
This thrilling Adventures in Odyssey compilation album is about the fruits of the Spirit. All nine biblical values from Galatians 5 are included. Love, the first and most multifaceted fruit of the Spirit, has four episodes dedicated to it. Then each of the remaining fruits of the Spirit each have their own episode. These are well-loved episodes and great for teaching children life-giving principles in an entertaining way.
Episode List:
This well known series from Focus on the Family consists of CDs from the popular radio program. Animated videos are available as well. For those of you who aren't familiar with the series, it is centered in a small "main-street" type of town called Odyssey. An older, wiser gentleman (and inventor) by the name of John Avery Whitaker, "Whit" for short, owns an establishment that is part ice cream parlor and part science & history museum of sorts. Whit has several employees, friends and frequent customers who make up the main characters of the stories.
Many episodes consist of one or more characters facing a challenge or dilemma whereby they come to Whit for advice. Whit typically points them to a Bible passage or story to help them learn how to handle the situation. Whit is usually not preachy, but helps guide the situation along so that the character needing help really "gets" the lesson.
Other episodes have one or more children going through the Imagination Station, a kind of time machine, which transports them into a period from the Bible or American History.
There is a lot of humor in this series for kids and adults. While I have fast-forwarded a little through a few episodes that have some brother-sister squabbles which present less than ideal family examples, my family has greatly enjoyed listening to Odysseys together. They definitely make "car time" go by faster. Each episode is about ½ hour long. - Jerry
