3 | ''My Time with Jesus'' is a Christian animated series aired by EWTN. |
4 | |
5 | The 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? |
