Fall Of Jericho (DVD)
$19.99The fall of Jericho is a well-known story, fascinating children and adults alike. But what really happened there thousands of years ago? Did God work a miracle to bring down the walls of Jericho as the Bible says? Or can natural causes sufficiently explain the city’s demise? The answers, previously buried under rubble and dirt for three and a half millennia, are now being uncovered. But are there enough pieces of the puzzle remaining to solve the mystery?
The Fall of Jericho explores what really happened as Joshua and the Israelites experienced one of the Bible’s greatest military victories. Interviews with Dr. Bryant Wood, an archaeologist who led an excavation of the Jericho site, and Bible scholar Dr. Frederick Baltz, shed new light on the truths found in Scripture about this miraculous event.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Herods Temple : The Temple Jesus Knew (DVD)
$19.99Jerusalem, rich in historical and Biblical heritage, is the home of the Temple Mount, one of the world’s most recognizable and visited sacred sites. Now, travel back in time to see it the way Jesus and his disciples did over 2,000 years ago. They knew it as Herod’s Temple. We remember it as the Temple Jesus knew. Imagine the scene as Jesus expelled the moneychangers from its outer court and as the veil of the temple leading to its holiest chamber was torn at the time of Christ’s crucifixion.
Through the use of beautiful animation, the temple is reconstructed and we are brought within its precincts to identify with the experience of those living in Jesus’ day. We also are confronted with the horror of the fiery destruction of the Temple by the Romans in A.D. 70. Through it all, we come to appreciate the central role of the Temple in the life of first century Jews and Christians.

Apostle Paul And The Earliest Churches (DVD)
$14.99Apostle Paul and the Earliest Churches is a brilliant and illuminating production. Beginning with his conversion, it reenacts Paul’s missionary journeys on Anatolian soil (modern Turkey). This brief, 48-minute Christian DVD contains an archaeological treasury: mosaics, frescoes, statues, amphitheaters, agoras, temples and more. The historical, religious, and archaeological background of each Anatolian region in which Paul preached the gospel is explained.
Yet this film is more than an archaeological or historical survey; this production’s reenactment of the miracles Paul performed, the difficulties he encountered, and the persecution he faced beckons the viewer to experience with the Apostle himself the birth of the Christian church.
The film’s archaeological emphasis is enhanced by 3D animated maps and footage of Antioch on the Orontes, Pisidian Antioch, Ephesus, Tarsus, and other cities important to Paul.
