Now, sit back and relax as he shares with you and your family his passion for Biblical literature and his unique insights into these timeless stories of faith. "The Last Supper, Crucifixion, And Resurrection": This story of Jesus' death and resurrection is one of the most dramatic tales in world literature, and for Christmas, it is much, a ringing affirmation of God's love for mankind. Now the story of His final days has been brought to life through this beautifully animated film. The story begins in darkness as the religious leaders in Jerusalem gather in a shadowy room, trying to decide what to do about a trouble-maker known as Jesus. Knowing that his days are numbered, Jesus gathers his disciples together for the Last Supper, reassuring them that He will be with them in spirit. Jesus retires to a garden to pray, but is captured by soldiers before dawn, having been betrayed by Judas, one of His disciples. Within a short time He is crucified, but does not die - not in any meaningful sense. On the third day after His crucifixion, He is resurrected, eventually fulfilling His destiny by ascending to Heaven. "The Miracles Of Jesus": The Bible is filled with stories of God's miracles. But the miracles performed by Jesus have a special significance: they reveal his divinity and suggest that those who come to god through Christ will themselves be miraculously transformed. Now, with this beautifully animated film, you and your family can reveal in the wonder of these miracles. "The Story Of Moses": The Old Testament is filled with inspiring stories. But the story of Moses is, perhaps, the greatest of them all. Now the story of Moses has been brought to life in a beautifully animated film that will appeal to your entire family. As the story begins, we learn that the Israelites - God's chosen people - have been enslave by the ruler of Egypt. For many years, they labor without reward. But finally, God decides that He will put an end to their oppression. He calls on one man - Moses - to lead His people to freedom. Moses is initially reluctant. He does not consider himself to be a leader of men. But he has faith in God. And at last he obeys the Lord's command. With God's help, Moses leads the Israelites out of Egypt, across the Red Sea and into the wilderness. There, they experience hardships far greater than any they had known in Egypt. And many of them threaten to rebel. But Moses does not give up. And when he receives from God two stone tablets bearing the Ten Commandments, the people realize that Moses has indeed been acting in accordance with God's will.
