Description

I Believe in Easter — Easter - It is a word with origins in pagan tradition and yet it has come to embody the oldest and most important festival in Christianity. Discover the origins of Easter in this thoroughly researched and emotionally charged docu-drama. Trace the history of Easter to ancient Egypt where the story finds its roots in the deliverance of the Israelites from slavery and learn how Passover symbolism in intricately woven into the events surrounding the crucifixion of Jesus Christ - The Lamb of God. Learn how the church adapted and transformed pagan tradition into the celebration of the Resurrection. See how culture, emperors, apostles and popes have influenced how we celebrate Easter today.

Road to Emmaus — It is a story that's captivated the imagination of many generations. Mourning the death of Jesus, two first-century travelers were joined by a mysterious stranger. Over the next few hours, the stranger revealed many mysteries that lay hidden in the ancient Scriptures. Soon, the purpose of Jesus’ life became clear...and the travelers’ sadness turned to great joy. Now you can learn what they learned. Discover the key to life...on the Road to Emmaus. Starring Bruce Marchiano.

Come Follow Me — Come Follow Me explores what it means to be a disciple, a follower of Jesus by depicting scenes from the life of the Apostle Peter as he journeys with Jesus. Peter's story is full of misunderstanding, false pride, misplaced zeal, doubts, fears, and even denial. This short film traces Peter's rocky journey from the day he heard Jesus call his name to the post-resurrection conversation in which Jesus charges Peter to “feed my sheep.” Over time Peter was transformed from fearful denier to the bold leader of the early church. The answer for Peter, as it is for followers of Christ today, was found in the power and promise of Jesus' words. The film is also designed to be an effective evangelism tool. Those without much biblical knowledge will be given a excellent introduction to the gospel message and invited to Come and follow Him. From the award-winning producers of The Road to Emmaus, Come Follow Me stars Bruce Marchiano (Visual Bible Series, The Encounter) as Jesus and Emilio Doorasingh (Apostle Peter and the Last Supper, Kingdom of Heaven) as the Apostle Peter. Includes English and Spanish audio and English captioning.

The Last Supper — Filmed and dramatized entirely on authentic locations of the Holy Land and the Middle East, this is the most elaborate and extensive film ever made on the Last Supper. Jesus met with his twelve disciples in the "upper room" in Jerusalem, where they shared that historic meal. It was the traditional Jewish Passover "Seder" meal, which to this day symbolizes the deliverance from slavery to freedom and is commemorated for the last supper the ancient Hebrews shared before leaving Egypt, on their long journey to the Promised Land. The Last Supper emphasizes both its Christian tradition and Jewish roots. In addition to the authoritative historical and cultural background, the program explores the recipes of the exotic Biblical courses served at the supper: bread, salads, herbs, olive dish, lamb, wine, fruit, and all other magnificent courses. A recipe booklet with authentic Biblical recipes for the meal is included in PDF format.

Third Day — On the third day after Jesus' crucifixion, eyewitnesses reported that they found an empty tomb and had an encounter with a living, breathing Jesus of Nazareth. What proof do we have that the resurrection really happened? This intriguing documentary digs deep into the biblical and historical accounts and explores these questions: Did the disciples steal the body? Did they hallucinate and only imagine they had met the risen Jesus or did they create a myth in order to keep the movement going? Scholars take a hard look and offer honest, thought-provoking answers. The Third Day is an excellent resource for both skeptics and believers alike. Includes both a 30 minute and a 55 minute version.
