Kids with religious education enjoyed it best. "I liked it because it has a lesson and it's based on a true story." They felt that their Christian friends would enjoy it. "It's a good cartoony version of a Bible story that kids would understand because understanding the Bible is more difficult." Favorite parts: When Jesus outsmarted the bakers, when Jesus was walking on the watcher and saved all the people." "The animation was okay. It wasn't high tech like Disney but it wasn't too bad." "I think the costumes were the types of clothing that they actually wore in those days."
Well produced 2-D animation and music. Offers a different perspective on the story of Jesus feeding the multitudes. Because the story begins with a book on the street looking for food, it intensifies the impact when the food is actually provided for the people and shows how people's lives were changed by Jesus. At the beginning, the thieves are fighting over the bread. By the end, they are sharing it. The message is strong that Jesus cares about others and wants humans to do so as well. Useful tool for religious education.
Jonas, a street urchin, is desperate for bread. When he finds some, knife-wielding thugs steal it. One day Jonas hears that Jesus is nearby, and he discovers that the bread Jesus offers will satisfy one's hunger forever.
