| 1 | VideoFIRST LOVE - Andrae Crouch, A historic gathering of Jesus Music pioneers. | The late 60's and early '70's were a time of tremendous upheaval in American culture as the hippie generation abandoned the values of their parents, turned to drugs and away from materialism, and went on a search for love and peace. For these young people, "the establishment" which included the church, seemed irrelevant. At times it felt like the very fabric of our nation might tear apart. It was out of this tumultuous era that young, musical voices began to surface. These newly converted musicians began singing about the new hope they had found through Jesus Christ. First Love examines the life and music of the people who birthed the sounds of a revolution that swept American culture. It became know as the Jesus Movement. For three historic days, these artists gathered for the first time in a mountain retreat in Southern California and First Love Volumes I & II captures almost 4 hours of each of their incredible live performances and reveals a rare look a the heart and motives of each artist as they describe in intimate detail the drama of their personal transformation. With performances by: • Randy Matthews • Barry McGuire • Annie Herring • Chuck Girard • Matthew Ward • John Fischer • Andrae Crouch • Jamie Owens Collins • 2nd Chapter of Acts • Terry Clark • Keith Green tribute with Melody Green • Randy Stonehill • Love Song • Paul Clark • Darrell Mansfield • Honeytree "We didn't know very much.

| 7 | VideoRebellion Of Thought | "There are no absolutes...what's true for you is not necessarily true for me." -a post-modern thought "So what happens when the group of people who've been reared on this kind of post-modern thinking then become our surgeons, our bankers and accountants, police officers and judges?" -David Fletcher, Assoc. Professor of Philosophy/Wheaton College What is post-modernism? How has it affected our culture? How will it impact our future? What is the role of the Christian church in a post-modern world? Does man truly need God or is God merely a fairytale idea left-over from a past cultural experiment? These questions are the launching point for Rebellion of Thought, as filmmakers, The Brothers Williamson examine a new generation that refuse to accept authority, code and convention. They probe the impact and consequences of such thinking both for the church and society. So, in the midst of all this, how do believers in Christ express their faith in a compelling, relevant way? What does it mean to love your neighbor as yourself? Parents, educators, small group leaders and Christian churches ignore the questions raised in Rebellion of Thought at their own peril. Without this critical examination, the result of post-modernism will bankrupt future generations in the years to come. Featuring these experts who take a critical look at the role of authentic Christian faith in a post-modern culture: * Angus Menuge (Chair of Philosophy - Concordia University) * D.A. Carson (Prof. Of New Testament - Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) * Jim Spiegel (Professor of Philosophy - Taylor University) * Bruce Ellis Benson (Assoc. Prof. Of Philosophy - Wheaton College) * Gene Edward Veith, Jr. (Culture Editor - World Magazine) They don't just dance around the edges of this mind-splitting phenomenon. They ask the searing, heart-rendering questions and offer some thoughtful and tangible solutions. Raw, urgent music by a variety of Indie bands provides the musical context for this video journey. Abby Someone, Inner Surge, Joniqa, Mixtapes for Girlfriends, Stereovolt, West of Verona, Audrey Hatcher Woodams and others are featured, with the entire video's soundtrack available separately on the DVD extras. | 7/7/08 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 14 | VideoDave Dravecky | Why do bad things happen to good people? What is the reason for suffering? Is there a purpose for pain? Are we just victims of circumstance? Is there a God? And if God is real, does He care about us individually in our deepest despair? If you or a loved one are asking these questions, if you are in a valley of depression or despair, you desperately need hope. You need a hope that is real, a hope that is firm, a hope that lasts no matter how long or deep your valley. How did Dave Dravecky, the famous pitcher for the San Francisco Giants, find HOPE after his pitching arm snaps and he has to face life as an amputee?

Journey of Hope provides you with the hope you will need to overcome fear, pain, loneliness, doubt and despair - with a hope that is real, a hope you can build your life upon. | 6/24/08 | Free | View In iTunes |
