"Jonathan Park" Audiostories for kids?
Anyone ever heard of "Jonathan Park" a story on CD Christian series? My kids love Adventures in Oddysey, wondering if this is similar?

Re: "Jonathan Park" Audiostories for kids?
We have several editions that we bought primarily for Bible and science based learning that fits with our family's views. My kids like JP (so do I, as do many of our homeschooling friend/families). JP can sometimes come across as sounding canned when it comes to Bible/world view statements where as Odyssey doesn't go as deep (IMO) but feels more natural/organic in it's storytelling approach.

I've mostly enjoyed them but would absolutely pre-screen them. One left a really bad taste in my mouth when they were talking about roles of men and women.

Re: "Jonathan Park" Audiostories for kids?
I've previewed a few. I couldn't figure out what made them sound off, maybe it's just we're not used to listening to overacted radio drama or the canned worldview tinge mentioned above, but I did not end up buying in to the series.

Re: "Jonathan Park" Audiostories for kids?
Was it anti-feminist or anti-traditional roles?
