What God is Saying

Sing to the LORD; praise his name. Each day proclaim the good news that he saves. Publish his glorious deeds among the nations. Tell everyone about the amazing things he does. — Psalm 96:2-3

Wonderful children's DVDs about Christian heroes


I wanted to let you know about some awesome DVDs available for your children. They are DVDs based on the lives of Jim Elliot (missionary to Auca Indians), Perpetua (one of first Christian martyrs who heroically gave her life in the Coliseum), Eric Liddell (runner made famous in movie Chariots of Fire), John Bunyan (wrote Pilgrims Progress...most influential Christian book outside of Bible), Gladys Aylward (missionary to China who led over 100 orphans to safety during WWII), Richard Wurmbrand (imprisoned for his faith for 21 years in Romania and founder of Voice of the Martyrs), and William Tyndale (translated the Bible into English and killed by English government for that).

Each of them are TRUE Christian heroes and people our children should know about and admire. The DVDs are very well done and for those who were martyred (Elliot, Perpetua and Tyndale) that fact is done in such a way as to give honor to God and to show that their lives were not in vain. 

Plus, each DVD comes with about 30 pages of printable activities for your children. Nathan, who is 4, enjoys these and so does Grace so I would say they are geared toward Elementary age. All 7 would regularly be $105 but Vision Video (the production company) is selling them all for $60.  This is an awesome price for all 7 of them!  To order them go to Torchlighters

I wanted to let you know because, in my experience, it is often hard to find videos which are about heroic Christians and are done in such a way as to keep your children's attention. But these do both and I can't say enough great things about them! 

The following email explains more:

Vision Video is celebrating!

We started with a vision to give youth ages 8-12 alternatives to typical sports and entertainment heroes. Torchlighters is a series of animated programs, presenting the lives of true-life heroes from Christian history. When kids see what God can do through a "Torchlighter" who is devoted to carrying out His will and purposes, they too may want to carry a torch of faith by serving Him.

We are thrilled that, seven years later, we've shipped over 100,000 Torchlighter DVDs in the U.S. and many more internationally. In celebration of this tremendous milestone, we're offering the set of 7 for the special CELEBRATION PRICE of only $59.99 for a limited time. That is a $105 value at an over 40% savings!

For this super-low price, you will get much more than just a movie. Each DVD also comes with terrific extras such as a student workbook full of great activities, a teacher's guide with four lesson plans and discussion questions, and a full-length documentary on the hero featured!

Join the celebration! Now is a great time to introduce your children to these dynamic, faith-building stories at a price you can afford! Use promo code "TORCHDEAL" at step 4 of checkout for this special offer which expires July 10, 2010.
