Jim Elliot Story (DVD)
$14.99
Geared for children ages 8-12, this stunning, half-hour, action-packed program uses top quality animation to bring to life the story of missionary martyr Jim Elliot.
The year was 1956. From the steamy jungles of Ecuador, news spread around the world that five young American men were mercilessly killed by members of the Auca tribe (now known as the Waodani)–a people those young men had gone to serve and befriend. That seemingly senseless tragedy a half century ago has become an inspirational marvel as that same tribe is now friends with the families of those they killed! This is the story of one of those brave torchlighters–Jim Elliot.
Jim Elliot spent his youth preparing to share the Gospel with those who’d never heard it. But nothing could have prepared him for the dangers and challenges he’d face in the jungles of Ecuador. The remote Auca tribe was suspicious and antagonistic toward even the most friendly of gestures from outsiders. Would Jim and his fellow missionaries ever be able to break down the hostile barriers and carry a torch of faith to this savage people determined to attack all outsiders?
In this inaugural Torchlighters episode we follow Jim’s adventures from his college years to his work in the jungles, showing young people his faith in action as he answers God’s call to do the seemingly impossible.

$16.99In the summer of 2001, eight aid workers in Kabul, Afghanistan, were arrested by the Taliban and accused of spreading Christianity.

Were they, in fact, getting what they deserved?
As events would prove, the truth behind their arrest was far more sinister than the world before September 11, 2001, could ever have imagined.
Six years in the making, Kabul 24 takes you around the globe to reveal the personal stories behind the eight Western prisoners and their sixteen Afghan coworkers who were thrust into the international spotlight.
