A show that speaks for itself |
Tested and approved by families everywhere.
Adventures in Odyssey
has proven to be a great tool for families around the world. With an audio
drama as popular as Adventures in Odyssey is, it isn't difficult to
put the show to use in a variety of ways.
Listen Before Bedtime
This is one of the most popular ways
Adventures in Odyssey fans have benefitted from the show since it began
in 1987. Encouraging children (and adults!) to listen to Adventures in
Odyssey shortly before bedtime can become a wonderful routine and fond
memory years later. Many radio stations air AIO in the evening to aid in
this practice. Plus, listening as a family before bedtime can create a good
jumpstart for family devotions. Odyssey can be a great tool for
discussions and dealing with life's issues. Since AIO is so relatable, it's
hard to go wrong. Also, opting to listen to Adventures in Odyssey
before bedtime is a great alternative to secular forms of entertainment.
Listen on Road Trips
Part of the adventure of a vacation is just
getting there. Adventures in Odyssey can be a great form of
entertainment to pass the time on long road trips and vacations. Christians
and non-Christians alike enjoy the show for its quality production standards
and good story. One big benefit is to load up an iPod or mp3 player with AIO
and enjoy countless hours of the show on the road without bringing any
physical copies of the albums with you. You may discover that many of AIO's
multi-part episodes and captivating mysteries will get you to your
destination in no time!
Teaching Tool in Sunday School
Sunday School teachers and ministry leaders
have used Adventures in Odyssey in the church setting because of its
faith-building entertainment. With hundreds of episodes to choose from,
Adventures in Odyssey covers a multitude of themes and topics great for
use as teaching tools and discussion-starters. Not only that, AIO uses many
Bible stories to teach listeners about the Bible and grow their faith. Using
Adventures in Odyssey in Sunday School can also be a great way to
re-emphasize Sunday School lessons and even "hook" new listeners to the
show. Why not get them interested in a show with an lasting and eternal
impact?
Teaching Tool in Education
Adventures in Odyssey can be a great
tool for teaching history in the academic setting, and it's not just limited
to use in Christian schools. Oftentimes, public school teachers will use
Adventures in Odyssey historical shows to teach history or to
re-emphasize things already learned. Christian schools, likewise, can use
AIO to teach history and even Biblical values, utilizing any Odyssey show to
do it.
Give the Gift of Odyssey
Many fans have grown up listening to
Adventures in Odyssey. Some of their best memories include the instances
in which they received AIO albums as gifts at Christmastime and birthdays.
This tradition is being carried on to a new generation of Odyssey listeners.
We believe this to be so memorable for grownup listeners because
Adventures in Odyssey is a show with lasting values with a
Christ-centered message. Why not pass on something redeeming to family
members and friends... or perhaps to introduce new listeners to the show?
Be Creative
Of course, you're not just limited to the
options we recommend above. Adventures in Odyssey can be used daily
in the home for personal entertainment (as opposed to negative, secular
entertainment). Be creative with your use of the show. Listen on the radio.
Listen online. Purchase albums. And you're not
limited to just the audio series. A large collection of Odyssey videos and
books also teach youngsters life lessons and positive messages. Most of all,
have fun!
