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.

Weapon Of Mass Destruction (DVD)
$22.99The liberal bias toward the war in Iraq was one thing. Then came a propaganda piece that did more to line the pockets of a radical filmmaker than to tell the truth. That’s when Brad Maaske, a conservative businessman from the agricultural heart of California decided enough was enough. It was time for a documentary that told the truth about the human toll and terror under the personally guided regime of Saddam Hussein.
This movie offers a balanced view of the real Iraq–before, during, and following the military involvement of the United States and its allies. It provides an objective report for Americans to consider prior to going to the polls in November. Jano Rosebiani, co-producer of WMD, is an Iraq film director know most recently for the documentaries Mass Graves of Saddam Hussein and Chemical Ali.Never-before-seen footage of the atrocities perpetrated in Iraq, chemical attacks, and interviews with survivors provide a riveting testimony for the justification of war and military support during reconstruction. Exclusive interviews and expert analysis of the current geopolitical situation are provided, including an in-depth interview by Victor David Hanson, author of eleven books, including The Western Way of War, An Autumn of War, and Between War and Peace.

For Jerry, though, the thought of winning and defeating the long-time club champion Gallant brothers is as unlikely as finding true love again, until a new co-worker enters his life and gives him a renewed hope.Read moreOut of stock
