Good News Brief: Greg Laurie Releases Evangelism Cartoon
In a day and time where indoctrination of satanic and secular values permeates media at every level, Pastor Greg Laurie is taking things in a different direction by releasing a cartoon fit for all ages.
On X, Laurie announced his new animation series “The Adventures of Ben Born Again and Yellow Dog.”
“I am excited to announce that my cartoon character, Ben Born Again and his buddy, Yellow Dog are now animated and our first cartoon is coming very soon!” Laurie wrote.
“The first one is titled, ‘The Bridge is Out.'” The Harvest Christian Fellowship pastor continued.
For Laurie, the focus of these cartoons is to serve two primary purposes of entertainment and evangelism. In the post, Laurie included a 52 second clip that introduces Ben and Yellow Dog.

are now animated and our first cartoon is coming very soon!
The first one is titled, “The Bridge Is Out”.
These cartoons will be both entertaining and evangelistic.

This sweet cartoon seeking to emanate the light of Jesus to the world couldn’t come at a better time than right now as we see entertainment giants like Disney are tearing down the innocence of children with storylines filled with the demonic, LGBTQ ideologies and other ideological factors that couldn’t be further away from the type of messaging that they actually need. We’ve seen this most recently with Amazon’s new show “Hazbin Hotel,” which glorifies Satan as the good guy in the creation story, completely ignoring the fact that it is because of Satan’s deception that sin entered the world.
While we do and will continue to see corruption in our fallen world, we can protect ourselves by sticking close to the foundation of Christ and filling our spirits with godly, enriching entertainment that will edify us to be more like Jesus. {eoa}
