3''My Time with Jesus'' is a Christian animated series aired by EWTN.
4
5The show centers on four children, Christine, Eva, Enrique, and Joseph, who learn about their Catholic faith with the help of Father Luis. A staple of every episode is that the children imagine they are traveling to UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}}' time to witness an event from Literature/TheBible, which is always related to whatever the topic of the episode is.

8!!This show provides examples of:
9* AdventuresInTheBible: The characters have {{Imagine Spot}}s where they are in the past during some event that took place in the Bible.
10* EveryEpisodeEnding: Every episode ends with the children reviewing what they learned in the episode.
11* FireAndBrimstoneHell: The show depicts Hell as a red cave filled with flames. The souls of those condemned to Hell are seen wearing ripped-up, [[RedGreenContrast green-colored]] clothes.
12* FluffyCloudHeaven: The show depicts Heaven like this, with Jesus and the souls of the departed standing on clouds in a sunny sky. Their depiction of Purgatory is similar, but it's a grayer sky with far more clouds.
13* GenderEqualEnsemble: Two boys (Joseph and Enrique) and two girls (Christine and Eva) make up the four main characters.
14* HistoricalDomainCharacter: Sister Faustina is based on a RealLife Catholic saint, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faustina_Kowalska St. Faustina Kowalska]].
15* HongKongDub: Seems to be a side-effect of either the show's budget-limited animation or the fact that it appears to be made in Spain. The characters' mouth movements rarely match up to what they are saying.
16* ImagineSpot: Every episode has the children imagining they are in Jesus' time during a Bible event relevant to the subject of the episode.
17* LimitedAnimation: It's pretty obvious that not much of a budget was put into the animation.
18* ReligiousEdutainment: If the show's title mentioning Jesus wasn't enough to clue you in.
19* TalkingAnimal: Enrique owns a talking parrot named Tasio ("talking" as in he can speak completely freely, rather than just mimic sounds heard earlier).
20* TitleThemeTune: ''Almost''. The theme song has the lyrics "In this time, ''my time with you, Jesus''", and that's the closest they get to saying the show's title verbatim in this song's lyrics.
21* ThemeTuneRollCall: The theme song introduces the four main characters and has them describe their personalities.
22* TokenMinority: Joseph is the only black character out of the four main characters. According to [[https://www.ewtn.com/ewtnkids/faithfactory/theChapletOfDivineMercyForKids.html Word of God]], however, Enrique is Ecuadorian and Eva is Korean. Averting StarbucksSkinScale, Kristin is Irish, instead of treating white as default. Sister Faustina is Polish...due to being Polish in RealLife.
23* ToothStrip: Every character has tooth strips.
24%% * YouthfulFreckles: Christine has these. %% How do they show her youthfulness?
