I wanted to pass along these clips from Doug Wolter posted on his blog. They are series of animated shorts designed for children’s church or Sunday school. They tell the story of Jesus death and resurrection. Despite the subject, the cartoon style animations here present the story in a child appropriate way. These clips were produced by this ministry based on the CEV translation of the book of Mark.

There were two guys names James, one was the half-brother of Jesus (aka one of Mary’s children after Jesus).
