$19.99
Two trailblazing 19th-century British businessmen whose work was built on faith: Thomas Cook and William Hartley.
Thomas Cook – There is no name in the world more instantly recognizable in connection with travel than Thomas Cook. A devout Christian, his great passion was to bring people closer together and nearer to their Creator by making “God’s earth with all its fullness and beauty” accessible and affordable to all. Renowned British Prime Minister William Gladstone ranked him among the nation’s great public benefactors. This documentary tells the remarkable story of how Thomas Cook progressed from his early years of pain and struggle to becoming a household name across the globe. 40 minutes
William Hartley – Today William Hartley would be applauded for establishing a brand of jam that made him immensely wealthy, yet his aim was not material success but to “serve the Lord every day to the best of my ability.” His business practice reflected his faith, earning him an outstanding reputation for integrity, quality and customer care. Even during the horror years of World War I he maintained the highest standards. A man of great compassion, he used his immense wealth to enrich the lives of others. This documentary tells his inspiring story. 35 minutes

Encounter With The Messiah (DVD)
$9.99A modern day telling of the Biblical stories of Barabbas, Blind Bartimaeus and the Women with the issue of blood.
The Woman with the Issue of Blood, or as we call her in our film, Maria. She was arguably the most well-known, nameless figure in the bible. A woman who suffered for 12 years with an incurable disease. 12 years of doctors telling her that they can do nothing for her. 12 years of exile from her family and friends. She literally lost everything that she had. Except her faith. Maria had every reason to become bitter but she kept her faith and it was because of that faith her life was forever changed.
Blind Bartimeaus was a homeless, blind beggar. Through no fault of his own he was handed a very rough life. He spent years on the streets until one day he had an encounter that changed his life. He was at the right place at the right time.
Barabbas was one of the most mysterious figures mentioned in The Four Gospels. He was a man who made every bad decision you can think of. He lived the life of a common street thug. He was ultimately sentenced to death for his crimes, and though an execution may be a fitting end to such a person, something else happened. Someone else took his place and was put to death instead.
