So you're watching a rerun of an old TV show you used to love as a kid, when suddenly the characters start saying "That reminds me of what the Bible tells us with [insert any Bible verse here]". Then you realize... it's been redubbed to preach the gospel. This was a brief fad amongst some distributors: If you want to keep an old kids' show that's not doing well in syndication on the air for a longer time, just redub it with religious context/content and sell it to any religious broadcaster that's interested. Subtrope of Religious Edutainment. Compare The Moral Substitute, in which a religious show plays Follow the Leader to a secular show. |

Inverted. Gerbert was a Religious Edutainment show in its original run, but was then turned into a secular Edutainment Show for its second airing. | |

A variant regarding the Arabic dub of The Simpsons, Al-Shamshoon — not only does it rename the characters (Homer Simpson becomes Omar Shamsoon) but it removes all elements incompatible with Islamic law: pork becomes beef, beer becomes soda, Moe's Tavern is removed, etc. The original show also parodied this in "The Monkey Suit". At Springfield Elementary, old educational films about evolution are redubbed — badly and obviously — to sell Creationism and "intelligent design". |

Sunday Funday is an edited version of Menace Beach, both of them made by Wisdom Tree, with the original version of the game involving the player character saving his girlfriend from Demon Dan with each cleared level showing his girlfriend with less and less clothing, while the edited version involves the player character just trying to make it to Sunday school and the girlfriend cutscenes being replaced with an Imagine Spot of how his Sunday school teacher might scold him if he arrives late. | |

The infamous religious version of Jay Jay the Jet Plane by Tommy Nelson. The stories are unchanged, but the dialogue is altered to make mentions of Christianity and the Bible throughout. This is to the point that the episode descriptions on the back of the VHS releases actually end the plot summaries with something like "Feels like Romans 8:25" (the religious summarization of "Tracy's Shooting Star"). | |

Meteor and the Mighty Monster Trucks has a religious version, "Monster Truck Adventures", with the race announcer bookending the show and using a Scripture reference to help summarize the plot. | |

A modified version Danger Rangers was released on some home videos aimed at Christian audiences. While the episodes are unedited with no religious references, each episode would end with a scripture lesson from The Bible that is relevant to an episode. | |

VeggieTales has a rare inversion. The show was originally very much intended to teach kids about the Bible and Christianity. However, when it was aired on NBC's qubo block, references to Christianity were initially removed. Protests from parent groups led to part of the content being restored in its second season. | |

In 2010, Cee Lo Green covered the famous song "Imagine" by John Lennon, replacing the (admittedly very pro-atheist) lyrics "and no religion too" with "all religions true", resulting in an immediate backlash from fans who believed that he had disrespected Lennon's legacy by changing the lyrics of his most iconic song. But this wasn't the only one — some interpretations also change that line for "and one religion too", to better appeal to Christian listeners. | |

"The Griffin Family History"'s opening flashback about the creation of Earth shows aquatic creatures evolving into land animals and then humans, but Peter's voiceover then announces that for viewers from Kansas (which has had issues with schools being pressured to teach Creationism/Intelligent Design rather than evolution) they're going to show an alternative flashback. In this version, the I Dream of Jeannie theme plays as the genie emerges from the ocean and then magics living things into existence (mostly animals, but also Jesus Christ) and they all dance around together. | |
