in honor to the Roman gods. With
this simple act of devotion and
loyalty to the Roman Empire she can regain her freedom and return to her infant son and a life of
comfort. As her father pleads for Perpetua to consider the welfare of her child and the reputation of
their family, she slowly makes her way to face the
Roman proconsul and declare her final decision.

The Story of William and
Catherine Booth, Founders
of The Salvation Army
Our People
This is the story of how one couple
took God’s love to the poor.
Walking the poverty-stricken
streets of Whitechapel late one
night in the summer of 1865,
William Booth observed neglected,
ragged children, drunken women,
unemployed men, prostitutes plying their trade. That night he decided, ‘These will
be our people.’
What followed makes an enthralling story of
spiritual passion, courage and faith leading to the
birth of The Salvation Army. Young people, often as
young as 18, opened the Army’s evangelistic work
in mining towns and even new nations and the
Army expanded globally. And compelled by love, it
reached out to prisoners and the downtrodden, and
the Army’s social work was born, compelled by
love, reaching out to prisoners and downtrodden.
Teaming up with journalist WT Stead, the Army
also tackled the sexual trafficking business which
enslaved hundreds of young girls.
This DVD features 11 historians and storytellers, voice artists, period music, over 500 images,
rare archival footage, and recordings of two Booth
grandchildren. 74 minutes (EST).

Franz Jägerstätter:
A Man of Conscience
In 1938, Hitler’s army occupied
Austria. All men were ordered to
enlist in the military. Franz
Jägerstätter, a farmer and father of
four, consented to military training
but refused to fight in Hitler’s
army, even though his refusal would ensure his
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. Featuring Martin Sheen as the voice of
Franz Jägerstätter. 24 minutes.

St. Teresa of Avila
A powerful epic mini-series shot
on location in Spain that tells the
story of one of the most amazing
women in history, St. Teresa of
Avila. Teresa of Avila was called by
God to reform and renew the
Carmelite order, a daunting task.
She was joined in this work by her
great fellow Carmelite and spiritual director, St. John
of the Cross. This film reveals the conversion that
Teresa herself had to go through to deepen her own
union with Christ as she endeavored to bring about
that same deeper spiritual reform of her Carmelite
order. It shows the tremendous opposition that she
and John both faced within (and without) their order
to bring about this much needed spiritual renewal.
She and John of the Cross were both great mystics
who combined the essential dimensions of a profound spiritual life with the very practical aspects of
being completely dedicated to the human tasks necessary for such a reform. 450 minutes.

The Passion of Christ
The Cross of Christ
with Ron Rolheiser, OMI
with Ron Rolheiser, OMI
Through Scripture and examples
from life, Fr. Rolheiser gives new
understanding and encouragement in how we can give our
lives to the world and also give
our death to the world. When we
think of passion, we think of
Christ’s physical suffering and
death, but in the Agony in the Garden, the Gospels
do not emphasize Jesus’ physical sufferings. The
Gospel writers want us to understand Jesus the
lover, who undergoes moral and emotional sufferings without resentment or bitterness. Fr. Rolheiser
explains that God’s strength comes when we are
exhausted and open to being transformed. Taped
before a live audience. Two 50-minute parts.
DOC DVD - #14254D, $19.99
The Cross has become the ultimate symbol of love in the
world. It is central to Christianity
in that we are to forgive our enemies. As such, it is the single
most revolutionary moral event
that has happened on this planet.
And, like all deep things in life,
the Cross is largely a mystery. The Cross reveals
God’s unconditional love and vulnerability and is
an invitation to discipleship. The Cross calls us
beyond ourselves, our own agenda, and our own
life. You will be challenged and inspired by this
meditation taped before a live audience. Two
50-minute parts.

Did Jesus Really Rise
from the Dead?
Did Jesus Really Rise from the Dead?
carefully scrutinizes the historical
evidence of Christ’s Resurrection.
Rather than accept Christian belief
blindly, 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.
A fascinating, fast-paced exploration of Jesus’
fate, Did Jesus Really Rise from the Dead? shows how
Jesus’ Resurrection has consequences for every one
of us. Features Jesuit Father Mitch Pacwa, Johnnette
Benkovic, Craig Blomberg, Ph.D., Craig Evans,

One woman caught in the scandalous act of adultery; another,
rejected and ignored because of her
promiscuous lifestyle; another,
shunned for 12 years because of a
shameful condition; a widow, cast
out from society, mourning the loss
of her only son. An ugly thread of
shame, sorrow and hopelessness painfully weaves
its way through the lives of each of these women.
After following Jesus for three years, Mary
Magdalene observed all these things and more. She
also witnessed changed lives, miracles, and the
results of restored hope. Watching in amazement,
Mary learned from Jesus a new way to look at people. He also radically transformed her life by
healing her from demon possession — releasing
her from shame. 82 minutes (S, F, M, K, A, Pt, Ru).

With pure energy, slapstick, side-splitting punch lines,

risks of premarital sex. He also presents the rich
rewards we receive when we adhere to God’s plan of

Tales from the Madhouse
This series brings the Gospels to life in a new way that sends viewers eagerly back to
the Scriptural text. Set inside the crumbling walls of a dilapidated Victorian sanatorium, eight mysterious characters reveal their secret stories to the visiting camera. The
eight are linked by one crucial, unifying event in their lives: each of them has had an
encounter with Jesus of Nazareth but turned away—an experience that has left an
indelible mark. Here we meet contemporary versions of familiar characters found in
the Gospels: Barabbas, a fellow prisoner of Jesus who was spared crucifixion; Judas
Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus; a servant girl, who meets Jesus the night before his death;
the duty-bound centurion, and others. The characters brushed with Jesus in some way but missed their
moment. Now they are haunted by the memory of what was and what might have been. Though we
never see Jesus, the characters reveal much about his personality, mission, and ministry. Many people are
responding to this video who have long turned a deaf ear to the more traditional methods of proclaiming
Christian truth. These programs come from an intriguing perspective and evoke a powerful response.

One woman caught in the scandalous act of adultery; another,

thread of shame, sorrow and hopelessness
painfully weaves its way through the lives of each

years, Mary Magdalene observed all these things
and more. She also witnessed changed lives, miracles, and the results of restored hope. Watching in

look at people. He also radically transformed her
life by healing her from demon possession —
releasing her from shame. 82 minutes (S, F, M, K,

Christianity and Islam
Here is a subject where we dare not remain uninformed. Today, there are approximately seven million Muslims and more than 13,000 mosques in North America.
Now that Muslims are our neighbors, how do we talk to them about Christ? Which

Jesus the God of Muhammad? Noted theologian Dr. Timothy George teams with
award-winning producer-director T. N. Mohan to answer these and other basic questions in this visually rich four-part collection. The series avoids the angry
condemnation of all Muslims on the one hand, and compromising Christian truthclaims on the other. Muslim views are stated fairly and objectively by Muslim

God, Christ, and the meaning of salvation. Includes a study guide. (EST).

Somebody’s Daughter
More than half the men in the United States admit they have used pornography. What
was once considered obscene is now a multi-billion dollar industry, increasingly
accepted within mainstream culture. The internet with its accessibility, anonymity, and
affordability, has raised pornography addiction to epidemic levels, exploiting men,
women, and children along the way and destroying intimacy, marriages and families,
while also distorting our understanding of sex and sexuality.
In Somebody’s Daughter, you meet four men who could be your neighbors. They were
looked up to by wives, children, church folk. But porn was secretly eating each of them
alive, just like it’s eating millions in the world today. You will also meet a woman devastated by her husband’s use of porn. The groundbreaking DVD/CD, Somebody’s Daughter, confronts the darkness and lies of
this alluring vice with compelling honesty. Interviews, personal stories, songs, music videos, poetry, and
readings combine to create a documentary designed to help those struggling with pornography to break
free and journey back to light and dignity. 62 minutes (EST).

During that time he changed the image of the
papacy forever, with a mass appeal never before
seen in the history of the Church. Here is his life
story. 60 minutes.
