Officials from NEST Family Learning, a leading producer and distributor of family educational products, announced its partnership with Trinity Broadcasting Network. As part of the deal, 13 episodes from NEST's animated Bible series will begin airing on Saturday, Nov. 18, on Trinity Broadcasting Network. Geared toward children 3-12, the series uses animation to teach biblical principles and essential Christian values.

"THE ANIMATED STORIES FROM THE BIBLE series is the type of high-quality children's programming that TBN strives for," said Brenda Rossman, a programming exec for TBN. "TBN is delighted to be adding this wonderful animated series to our broadcast lineup."

In addition, TBN reports that NEST has taken an extra step and had each story reviewed and approved by an independent advisory board of theologians.

"TBN provides what scores of American households are eager to engage in -- high-quality entertainment matched with contemporary content that nurtures family values and spiritual beliefs," said Paul Crouch, Jr., vp of TBN. "THE ANIMATED STORIES FROM THE BIBLE is just the kind of wholesome children's programming that parents have come to expect from TBN."
