of abortion as practiced in our society, its roots and
growth in the legal system. How will Christians in the
future see our efforts to right the wrongs of the past and

look back with shame because of our apathy and

In the early 1890's there is a feeling of euphoria

this is not to be. A conservative movement that
several Roman Pontiffs felt bound to support puts a
stop to the "Americanization" of the churches.

Across time, oceans and cultures, "Amazing Grace"
has endured as one of the most popular pieces of
music in the English language. Its universal appeal
inspired the acclaimed journalist Bill Moyers to tell

During World War II, racist laws in Italy forced
thousands of Jews to flee their cities in search of safe
haven. Although under German occupation, Assisi
became a special place of refuge where priests, nuns,
the town's mayor and many of Assisi's citizens
worked together to save all Jewish refugees who
came there. This inspirational story is told through
historical footage, interviews of some directly
involved, the leadership from Pope Pius XII to save
the Jews, and Pope John Paul II's message from
Assisi to walk the paths of peace.

It is possible for men to grow in holiness through the
gift of grace in response to the Lord's call to "be

For those who know nothing about the saint of

glances with the Mother of God. It also takes the
viewers on a guided tour of sacred places at Lourdes
and Nevers, all affiliated with Bernadette and her

her intercessions. It will uplift the spirit and unite
our spiritual joys with those of this special saint,
patroness of all who suffer. May this simple film
inspire the viewers to follow Bernadette's example -to find peace of heart and mind, even in the midst of
chaos. This documentary also includes interviews
with the Grand Nephew of St. Bernadette, Emile
Soubirous; the Mayor of Lourdes; the Rector of the

and family? 2) To Be Blessed: is having a lot of
material things a sign of God's blessing? 3) The Call:
In what ways does following Jesus change my life? 4)
To Be a Steward: Does stewardship mean careful
spending or taking risks? 5) Security/Idolatry: Where
do we find security? Do investments deny our security

we can afford? 7) Production/Consumption: How does
following Jesus affect our choices about what we eat,
what we wear, what we do for recreation? 8) Poverty:
What excuses do we use to protect ourselves from the
suffering in the world? 9) First Fruits/Giving: Why

Catholics/Americans is a documentary of the Catholic
Church in the United States from pre-colonial times to
the present. This is a story of saints and sinners,
courage and hope, suspense and sudden violence,
struggle and fulfillment, spiritual and secular strife, war
and peace, defeat and triumph. It is a story that has
never been told so completely, so graphically - how
Catholics came to America, how they changed America,
and how America changed them. This six DVD unit
documentary is told in a thousand pictures and fortyfour dramatic sequences portraying the people who
helped shape the story of Catholics in America. Every
Catholic who wants to understand the problems and
opportunities of today's American Church should see it,
enjoy it, and learn from it. The three DVD units are
divided into twenty-two 15-minute segments (See also
VC422.1-2).

liberty. After the war, the Church is granted wider scope
by both the United States government and Rome; a truly

though it can be difficult. While the video focuses on
the Bible, the Catholic religion teacher can add
references to the Sacraments and Holy Mass as sources
of strength.
You may call it "mission" or "calling," "vocation" or
"purpose," it all boils down to serving people
according to Gospel principles. Traditionally, we
picture priests or nuns doing "Mission" in foreign
lands, but that's not the only way it's done. In this
new program you will see foreign and domestic
missions beings done by lay people as well as
religious, including Catholic priests and Religious
women in Zambia, a group of lay people on a
mission trip to Zambia, Catholic priests doing
mission in Mexico, and lay people serving the
homeless in New Jersey. There are many needs, and
many ways to do mission; it's limited only by your
imagination. Watch this to begin Mission Sunday

In the mid 1800's, John Henry Newman, famous

prestigious Oxford for the small town of Littlemore.
There he lived a quiet, unhurried life, taking care of

prayer and study. In the midst of his rigorous studies
he made a discovery that led him to become Catholic
and eventually a Cardinal. This illuminating EWTN

Churchman, recently declared a saint.

Msgr. Stuart Swetland of the University of Illinois
Newman Center places a very human face on Catholic
Social Teaching as he describes concrete, practical ways
in which Catholics today may live out principles of
Social Teaching. Examples are cited from the personal
experiences of Pope John Paul II, Blessed Mother
Teresa, and St. Maximilian Kolbe, among others. The
overarching theme is to make the law of charity the law
by which we live, for "As you did these things unto the
least of these my brethren, you did it to me" (Mt 25:40).
Everyday we are faced with pressure from friends
and others to make choices. In this program two
teens are discussing their particular dilemma when
they encounter a businessman with a similar but
deadly decision to make. A thought provoking
drama is followed by a discussion among teens.

Catholic Church, reforming customs and secular
traditions, both on a liturgical and a canonical level.
Over the past 2000 years, the Catholic Church has
been led by no fewer than 265 Popes. What has
made this unbroken chain of successions possible?
How is a Pope elected? This film gives the answers
and introduces us to the extraordinary atmosphere of
the Conclave. Beginning with the surprise
announcement of Pope Benedict's resignation, it
travels the origins and history of the papacy up
through the election of Pope Francis.

Catholic Belief
If Christ has not been raised, said the Apostle Paul,
Christian faith is in vain. The Resurrection of Jesus
of Nazareth is not an incidental or minor aspect of
Christianity. If Jesus did not rise from the dead,
Christianity is certainly false. Skeptics have long
tried to show that there was no Resurrection. Today,
there has been a resurgence of attacks on this central
truth of Christianity. Some people claim that the
followers of Jesus fabricated the Resurrection.
Others argue that the disciples hallucinated or had a
"vision" of their dead master, which they confused
with a truly risen Jesus. Others still suggest that the
Resurrection was a myth or that the apostles may
have seen a "spirit" or witnessed a "spiritual
resurrection" that had nothing to do with an empty
tomb and the transformation of Jesus' dead body.
This presentation scrutinizes the historical evidence.
Rather than blindly accept Christian doctrine, top
scholars and biblical historians critically examine
alternative explanations. In the end, they show why
it is a matter of sound reason as well as faith to
affirm what the early Church proclaimed: Jesus is
risen.

The Roman Empire persecuted the Christians but was

manage to survive against paganism and barbarianism?
How did the first Christians live? Who were their most
terrible enemies: idols, lions, Jews...or heretics? How
did they defend their faith? How did they propagate it?
The blood of the martyrs was the seed for new
Christians. And heresies provided the opportunity to
define the essential truths of Christian faith,
consolidating the roots of a millennial Church. This
series explores the amazing story of the witness of the
early Christians and the spread of Christianity.

Conscience
This story of an ordinary man who performed an
extraordinary act reminds us that with faith we can all
do extraordinary things. In 1938, Hitler's army
occupied Austria. All men were ordered to enlist in the
military. Franz Jagerstatter, a farmer and father of four,
went into military training but refused to fight in
Hitler's army, even though he knew that he would face
execution. His neighbors, pastor and even the bishop
tried to convince Franz to enlist for the sake of his
family. But Franz felt his faith and conscience
compelled him to follow the teachings of God and not
the decrees of the Third Reich. He was imprisoned,
then executed on August 9, 1943 at the age of 36. In
2007, the Vatican declared Franz a true martyr,
officially placing him in the process of sainthood. The
deep faith and courage of this humble farmer is an
inspiration to all, and leads many to say no to war and
to work for peace.
This new documentary from the Knights of
Columbus unveils the personality, passion and
extraordinary faith of the new Pope. Filmed on

Being equal doesn't mean that we are the same. To
build good relationships, young people need to know
how the "other half" thinks. In this video, real life
stories, comedy, lively images, straight talk all promote
appreciation of the gifts God has given each of us.
Study guide included.
This CD contains meditations on four key Biblical
images of God as mother, potter, compassion, and
love. Meditating on these images can widen our
experience of the one God whose wonder surpasses
any one image. These meditations can be used in a
variety of settings, such as retreats, prayer days,
planning days, liturgies, classes, and meetings.

Church History
Against the fiery backdrop of the French Revolution,
Charles Joseph Eugene de Mazenod, a young French
nobleman, grew to see physical suffering and spiritual
distress all around. In a France torn apart by political
turmoil, de Mazenod heard the call to become a priest,
to found a religious community which became in 1826
the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate. On
December 3, 1995, over 12,000 pilgrims crowded into
St. Peter's Basilica in Rome to witness the spectacular
ritual wherein Pope John Paul II proclaimed the
Canonization of Bishop Eugene de Mazenod, O.M.I.
Over 130 years after his death, thousands of de
Mazenod's fellow Missionary Oblate priests and
brothers continue to spread the Gospel on five
continents in over 100 languages (See also VC1709).

Creation
Has science discovered God? - a famous atheist says
yes! This DVD chronicles the impact of his thinking
and story. In 1955, Professor Anthony Flew set the
agenda for modern atheism with his Theology and
Falsification, a paper presented in a debate with C.S.
Lewis. This work became the most widely reprinted
philosophical publication of the last 50 years. Over the
decades, he published more than 30 books attacking
belief in God and debated a wide range of religious
believers. But in a 2004 Summit at New York
University, Professor Flew announced that the
discoveries of modern science have led him to the
conclusion that the universe is indeed the creation of an
Infinite Intelligence. Second DVD presents three
lectures on The Existence of God, The Message of
Modern Science, and the Roots of Atheism.

by its refusal to accept the Bishop of Rome as the head
of the Church, as well as its refusal to accept the
"filioque" in the Nicene Creed which states that the
Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son.
Accompanied by beautiful art and prayerful images, the

individual men and women, like Francis of Assisi
and Hildegard of Bingen, who experienced Christ in
their own ways.
Beginning before the Nativity and extending through
the Crucifixion and Resurrection, this film brings to life
all the majesty and sweeping drama of the life of Jesus
as told in the Gospels. An international cast, featuring
Michael York, Sir Laurence Olivier, James Earl Jones,
Ann Bancroft, Olivia Hussey, Rod Steiger and Anthony

saints, sinners and ordinary people who walked in the
footsteps of the Lord. This DVD provides the setting

Jesus, whose lineage from the royal house of Israel, the
People of God, was foreshadowed in the Old
Testament, fulfilled and surpassed Mosaic law in the
institution of the New and Eternal Covenant. Bob
Fishman, a convert from Judaism, traces the tenets and
liturgy of Judaism to their end in the Holy Catholic
Church. This intriguing series on our heritage and
indebtedness to our "elder brothers in the faith"
includes Judaism 101: a primer of the Jewish faith;
Hebrew terms explained; Chanukah - epic story of the
Maccabean revolt against the Syrians; High Holy Days
- Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and more.
Salvation History
The infinite God took on human flesh. Who was
this first-century carpenter who changed the whole
course of history and of eternity? As he trudged the
rough paths of Israel, he was worshiped as God; as
he performed signs that revealed his divinity, he was
executed as a traitor. Join Steve Ray as he catches
fish on the Sea of Galilee, camps along the Jordan
River, and explores the places where Jesus lived and
taught. Gain a deeper appreciation for our Savior
and the price he paid for our salvation. Study guide
included (See also VC1340.4).

This is the first feature film ever on the story of St.
Joseph - carpenter, husband of Mary and the chosen
father of Jesus Christ. Scripture tells us that St.
Joseph was a "just man", and that God gave him the

husband of the woman who would give birth to the
Messiah and the father and protector of this Holy
Family, the man closest to Christ. DVD also

Gregory Peck received a 1945 Best Actor Oscar
nomination for his portrayal of a dedicated priest in this
excellent film version of A.J. Cronin's best-selling
book. When the movie begins, Father Francis
Chisholm (Peck) is an aging cleric who is about to be
forced into retirement. Through he has apparently
accomplished little during his career, flashbacks reveal
his enormous impact on those who knew him. As a
young man, Chisholm accepts the daunting challenge of
running a mission in rural China. Indeed, when he
arrives he finds he has no church and no congregation.
But over the years his honesty, generosity and courage
win the villagers' respect, and slowly his mission
prospers. It is the inspiring, moving story of one man's
effort to serve God without any thought of personal gain
or earthly reward.

the Nazis and his sense of guilt, Jan visits the
Franciscan monastery where Father Maximillian
Kolbe had been founder and superior. Why would
Kolbe decide to die for another prisoner, a complete
stranger? This film reflects on what heroic faith and
love can do, declaring with Pope John Paul II that
Kolbe is truly the patron saint of the difficult 20th
century.

how compulsion is not a sickness or disease, but rather

"God is Dead" philosophy, violence and secularism.
Using the illustration of Cain who killed his brother
Abel, Bishop Sheen shows how hope can spring forth
out of the worst moments because Christ died for us
and rose again. We can find hope in His resurrection
and life. In the second part of this DVD series, Bishop
Sheen explains the two types of compassion. He begins
by relating the parable of the Good Samaritan to
illustrate the correct type of compassion, and then
discusses compassion that is false, where the
perpetrator instead of the victim is pitied. Bishop
Sheen shows how as this false compassion has risen, so
has the crime rate increased.

Christianity, his friendship with J.R.R. Tolkien, his love
for his wife Joy, all of which influenced his writings.
Included are interviews with Lewis scholars and with

Matrimony
Bishop Fulton J. Sheen is eloquence at its very best.
These timeless messages offer inspiring guidance,
encouragement, peace of mind and spiritual comfort
that will touch the heart. In this delightful episode,
Bishop Fulton Sheen compares these stages of love
and marriage to a flower garden. He speaks of
courtship as being a seed catalog, the proposal as
choosing the flower, the marriage as planting and the
trials as the seasons that pass over this mature
garden. Through metaphors and poetry, Bishop
Sheen paints with words a charming portrait of love.
In the second part Bishop Sheen handles the difficult
issue of neurosis with his usual grace and humor. As
a result of today's philosophy, the youth of this
nation suffer from this condition in greater numbers,
using more intense experience as the basis for what
they do rather than using a standard of what is right.

seen through the eyes of an indigenous woman and a

works as a servant. As the two individuals reflect on
the conquest of "New Spain," we see a great
difference between the perceptions of the conquerors
and the conquered. The miraculous appearance of
the brown-skinned "Mestiza Virgin" to the simple
peasant Juan Diego, and the subsequent construction
of a basilica in her honor, marked the beginning of a
period of reconciliation between the indigenous

least fortunate. Her phenomenal labors on behalf of the
poor, unwanted and needy earned her the name "the

to her receipt of the Nobel Peace Prize, this is the
definitive profile of one of the spiritual icons of the

frescoes to dusty sacred texts and beautiful mosaics in
early churches throughout the ancient and medieval
world. By retracing the steps of the Wise Men, we
piece together a fascinating puzzle to reveal how their

a hot morning of August 5th, when Romans awoke to
find snow covering the Esquiline Hill. The Pope built
a Church, Santa Maria ad Nives, Our Lady of the

Today, the magnificent church is called Santa Maria

Follow the footsteps of the apostle who rocked the

gospel of grace lit the fire of the faith that would
sweep across Europe and beyond. This exploration
takes you to the actual places Paul visited, now in
modern day Greece, Turkey, Israel and Italy. Join
pastor and teacher Ron Kelly as he guides you in
exploring Paul's message of grace in Jesus Christ and
the ancient cities of the Roman Empire where it took
root. The Bible will come alive when you see what it
was like when and where these earthshaking events
occurred.
The early first-century followers of Jesus were a small,
struggling group within Judaism that seemingly posed
no threat to anyone, certainly not the mighty Roman
empire. But there was one man determined to see this
fledgling faith exterminated. His name was Saul, and
he became the greatest persecutor of the early Church.
But within a few years, the Christians' fiercest
opponent became their most effective advocate. Struck
down by a powerful conversion experience on the road
to Damascus, Saul, his name changed to Paul, went on
to become the greatest missionary in the history of
Christianity (See also DVD89).

The twentieth century was a tumultuous one, seeing

from the rule of monarchy to the fascist and
communist dictatorships that sprang up in the wake
of World War I; from the violent persecution of
innocents under repressive regimes to the antiestablishment violence of terrorism and guerilla
warfare. And as the storm of ideology, hatred, and
confusion reached its peak, a gentle and wise leader
took the helm to steer the Catholic Church through
the tempest. From 1963 to 1978 the papacy of Pope
Paul VI helped shape how the Catholic Church
would confront the complexities of the modern
world. In this beautifully produced film, journey into
the past of both Italy and the world, and the spiritual
response of Pope Paul VI.

Can you recall the names of all the previous Popes that

opportunity to learn about all the great popes that have

as Pius 10th, Pius 11th, and Pius 12th, Paul 6th and
Pope John Paul II. Because of old historical footage,
the video jumps at some points and cuts off part of the
section on Pope John Paul II, but the content is still
valuable.
Who is the real Pius XII? In our time the media has
painted a less than flattering portrait of the former
pontiff, claiming that he failed to sufficiently
denounce and combat the evils of Nazism. Sister
Margherita Marchione, a leading Pius XII scholar,
and historian Ronald Rychlak set the record straight
in this engaging EWTN Home Video on Pope Pius
XII. Exploring the life, work, and teachings of the
260th Pope, they present a man of astounding
courage who, prior to the recent campaign of

Pope Pius XII
This film depicts the powerful true story of Blessed
Jerzy Popieluszko, the courageous young priest-martyr
who was the chaplain of the large Polish trade union,
Solidarity. His dynamic personality, deep prayer life,
and strong empathy for the persecution and sufferings
of the workers made him a beacon of hope to the
oppressed Polish people. He was brutally murdered by
Communist agents for his outspoken defense of his
people and for proclaiming the teachings of the Church
on human rights and the dignity of the human person.
He was beatified in 2010. In Polish, with English and
Spanish subtitles.

Holocaust
Pope Pius XII guided the Catholic Church through
two tumultuous decades, firmly establishing himself
as a champion of peace, and the moral voice of the
world torn apart by war. However, shortly after his
death in 1958, his heroic legacy was called into
question by some historians who claim that his
alleged "silence" during the Nazi holocaust allowed
Hitler to carry out his "final solution" against the
Jews. Pope Pius XII protested vehemently the
persecution of Jews. His was a prophecy in action,
which saved the lives of countless victims of the
neo-pagan Nazi reign of terror, rather than making
potentially counter-productive public statements.
This documentary explores the difficult choices Pius
XII faced during the Second World War, and
provides convincing proof that his bold, yet discreet,
prophetic actions saved tens of thousands and paved
the way for a new era of Catholic-Jewish relations
that have deepened over the past 50 years.

Resurrection
This film is based on a short story by renowned
author Max Lucado. The setting is Jerusalem at the
time of Christ. Claudius, a Roman guard, finds
himself in the midst of a cover-up regarding the
tumultuous events after Christ's execution. As his
inquiries progress, he discovers that the religious
leaders, Roman government and his closest allies are
collectively attempting to hide something, perhaps
the truth. His relentless pursuit for the answers
threatens his reputation, even his life. Resurrection
is the story of one man's quest for truth and the
discovery that leads to his own personal resurrection.

With all that has been written and sensationalized in
recent novels and films, Revelation has become the
most talked about (and most misunderstood) book in
Sacred Scripture. But what exactly does our Church
teach about this seemingly "cryptic" book of the Bible
and how in the world do we begin to break open
something so complex with our Catholic teenagers? In
T3: Revelation-The Lion and the Lamb, Mark Hart
calms the concerns and unpacks the myths about
Revelation, the end times, the mark of the beast, and so
much more. T3: Revelation gives your teens an
invaluable foundation for understanding the Book of
Revelation, while pointing out its modern significance,
practical application, and daily relevance to a teenager's
life. In each of the four lessons, Mark skillfully
unpacks the book's main points and key chapters, while
continually referring to the wisdom offered by our
Catholic faith.

One of the most popular televison and radio
personalities of his time, Fulton J. Sheen was also a
prolific author, penning over 70 books. Fr. Charles
Connor, PhD. explores the writings of the renowned
Bishop. He focuses his attention on five main aspects
of Sheen's writings: the Eternal Father, the Incarnate
Son, temptation and sin, confession, and the nature of
conversion. And along the way he also builds a
revealing portrait of the iconic television bishop, as he
relates memorable details from his life. This is a great
introduction to the life and thought of one of the truly
prophetic voices of the modern period.
This six-part series shows nonviolence as a force
more powerful than violence in effecting real change.
Apartheid in South Africa created an atmosphere of
frustration and violence against state repression. But
an alternate approach is offered by young Black
activists, opposing racial discrimination through
boycotts of white businesses. Within ten years,
Nelson Mandela becomes president in South Africa's
first democratic election.

Suffering
The term "caregiver" has been used for those who offer
physical, emotional, spiritual care for suffering or dying
family members. This video, through a very moving
story, witness and teaching, explores the role of
caregivers in the light of faith in Christ who shepherds
and cares for all of us. Includes some Spanish segments
with English subtitles. This video is part of the "Teach
Us to Pray" Catholic Update Video series. Study guide
included (See also DVD394).
The world bombards men with its counterfeit
messags that women are to be used, marriage and
fatherhood are a burden to avoid, and pronography is
just normal "guy stuff." The Church affirms chastity
as the virtue that expresses, trains, and frees men to
love in a noble way, to love like Christ. The study
guide combines about 30 minutes of short videoclips with discussion and prayer, totaling an hourlong session.

the 10th commandment, on how materialism can
cause weariness and despair, while looking beyond
the temporary will give contentment and hope. The
9th commandment exposes three areas of lying:
gossip, slander, and flattery. Honesty, however,
brings respect and mutual caring. The British
accents and Protestant numbering of the
commandments will need adaptation for Catholic

This third video in the series on the Ten
Commandments begins with the 6th commandment (5th
in the Catholic Bible), explaining how irritation and
anger can become murderous. The 5th commandment
(4th in the Catholic Bible) explains how to really honor
your parents by respecting, appreciating and affirming
them. Parents are also challenged to set an example
modeled on our Heavenly Father. The British accents

The powerful conversion testimony of renowned

Theology of the Body for Teens is a curriculum
drawing from the principal teachings of Pope John
Paul II's Theology of the Body. Students will learn
what it means to be created in the image and likeness
of God, a dignity designed for a supernatural end
provided by God who gives us His supernatural aid His only son Jesus Christ. Pope Benedict XVI in his
recent encyclical Spe Salvi beautifully teaches us this
truth about human love by illustrating the unfolding
nature of our being and the profound
internconnections between the deepest questions of
human existence.
A beautiful portrayal of the faith-meaning behind the
objects and symbols in a Catholic church: the altar, the
lectern, the baptismal font, the paschal candle, the
stained glass windows, all centering around the
sacrament of the Eucharist. Suitable for RCIA, with
study guide included (See also DVD398).

Sufferers were abandoned by the outside world and

transferred to the island and began ministering almost

lives during that era to deliver the sacraments.
Ordained a priest against all odds, he spent the rest of

Dr. Marcellino D'Ambrosio offers a spirited 8-part
meditation in this new EWTN Home Video on the
four moral virtues - fortitude, prudence, justice and
temperance - as well as the three theological virtues
of faith, hope and charity. Seven Habits of
Champions lays out how God's inspiration for
Christian living, contained in the Scriptures and
made known through the Catechism and Church
documents, is accessible to everyone and
demonstrated for us through the lives of the saints.
We are all called to holiness. And through the
practice of these seven "habits," heroic virtue can be
attained!

The Pope is recognized by the world's over one

this sign of unity should ever be a cause of division.

In episode 11, teens and priest-teachers explore the
Catholic answer to the question where is heaven. Both
Sacred Scripture and the Catechism teaches that heaven
is a living, personal relationship with the Holy Trinity,
understood here only in images, but experienced faceto-face for those who die in God's grace. Included are
teachings on the four last things of death, judgement,
purgatory and eternal life. Episode twelve explores the
Catholic answers to the questions on our human identity
as made in the image of God. Of all visible creatures
only man is able to know and love his creator, the basis
for the dignity and sacredness of all human life.
In episode thirteen, teens and priest-teachers explore
the Catholic answer to the question not just of who
we are but of why we are, our mission as human
beings. We strive to show forth in our lives the
divine image imprinted in our very being: "You
shall be holy for I am holy." Disc also includes a
