The Case for A Creator DVD
by:
Illustra Media with Lee Strobel
An explosive DVD that brings to life powerful evidence from the natural world for the existence of God - in a stunning cutting edge production from Illustra Media.
At high school Lee Strobel became convinced that God did not exist. Only the hard, empirical evidence of science could be trusted - and it appeared to point to a universe created by purely materialistic processes. Time, chance, and Darwinian evolution. The cosmos is all there is. This atheistic worldview deeply influenced Strobel’s academic years and early career as an award-winning journalist for the Chicago Tribune. Then, in 1980, his wife’s conversion to Christ led him on an intensive search for the truth about God. Not surprisingly, he began with science. What do the discoveries of modern biology, physics, cosmology, and astronomy really tell us about the origin of life and the universe? When objectively considered, does contemporary scientific evidence point toward or away from a supernatural Creator?
Strobel interviewed scientists and scholars from a wide range of disciplines for the answers. Based upon a New York Times best-seller, The Case for a Creator, this is a truly remarkable film about Lee Strobel’s journey from spiritual scepticism to a profound faith in the God who has etched His indelible signature upon every galaxy and each living cell; the same Creator now revealed more clearly than ever before by 21st century science.
Bonus Features: Questions and answers with scientists - Internet reference library - The Machinery of life - How did life begin?
Running time: 60 minutes with a further 40 minutes of bonus material. |

Privileged Planet DVD
by:
Illustra Media
The factors necessary for a planet to be suitable for life cannot be brought about by chance. That's the basic message of this stunning DVD, The Privileged Planet. A whole host of rare and finely-tuned characteristics must be in place for life to exist on earth and the scientists featured on this DVD conclude that the earth, the solar system and the universe can only therefore have been designed intelligently by a creator. Contrary to the atheistic views of Carl Sagan and others, earth is not an ordinary planet in an ordinary spiral galaxy. It is without doubt the most extraordinary planet in the entire universe.
This DVD is narrated by John Rhys-Davies.
Running time: 60 minutes. Contains over 40 min of bonus material. |

Does God Exist? DVD Debate
by:
William Lane Craig vs. Peter Atkins
Does God exist? No question comes bigger than this.
So, what if the sharpest, most quick-witted atheist in the world could be pitted against the most knowledgeable and learned Christian debater of our times - who would win? Such an event was staged in The Carter Presidential Center in Atlanta, Georgia, USA on April 3, 1998. It was a memorable two and a half hour debate in which the weaknesses and fallacies of atheism were thoroughly and convincingly exposed. Atheistic Oxford Professor, Peter Atkins (friend of Richard Dawkins, author of the God Delusion) finished up contradicting his own writings before the night was over.
Running time: 155 minutes. |

Lucy - She's No Lady
by:
Dr. David Menton
Confused about 'Lucy', the australopithecine (southern Ape) that is claimed to be an early ancestor of man? Ph.D. biologist and anatomist Dr. David Menton exposes Lucy as a fraud and leaves no doubt that the famous Lucy fossils belong to a knuckle-walking, ape-like creature who was not a lady! The importance of this case cannot be overstressed since Lucy forms the centre-piece of London's Natural History Museum's exhibit on so-called 'human evolution'.

Does God Exist? DVD Debate
by:
Christopher Hitchens vs. William Lane Craig
On April 4, 2009, William Lane Craig and Christopher Hitchens met at Biola University to debate the question of God's existence. Craig is one of the world's foremost Christian apologists. Hitchens is a leading spokesman for the "new atheism" movement. In front of an overflow crowd and a global internet audience, they debated the origin and design of the universe, the implications of human morality, the deity of Jesus, and the validity of Christ's resurrection. It was a compelling clash of worldviews and an examination of the major arguments for and against Christianity and atheism. This two-DVD set captures every moment of the debate (documented by 10 cameras). Bonus features include the pre-debate press conference, a question-and-answer session, and interviews with Hitchens and Craig. Does God Exist? is a vital resource for anyone who doubts the Christian faith-or seeks convincing evidence to defend it.

Dynamic Life: Changes in Living Things DVD
by:
Dr. Carl Weiland
Is evolution happening all around us? Do the small changes we see within families of animals imply that one family has evolved into another over millions of years? Can natural selection and mutation fit into a Biblical framework? Did God place all the animals and plants as they exist today in the garden of Eden? Does present day variation within an animal family allow us to believe that birds can evolve into dinosaurs?
Dr. Carl Weiland discusses these questions and give some much needed focus to a lot of woolly thinking in this area, enabling the viewer to better understand the changes evolution claims to be able to make, and why such changes are impossible, even given millions of years.
Running time: 47 minutes. |

The Hearing Ear and the Seeing Eye
by:
Dr. David Menton
A fascinating presentation from Dr. David Menton revealing the wonderful intricacies of the human ear and eye. This DVD emphasizes the inability of the gradual Darwinian model to build these amazing systems. A unique and powerful DVD that exposes the false theories of Richard Dawkins's in his Blind Watchmaker wherein he postulates the idea that a complex eye can gradually evolve from simple beginnings.
Running time: 65 minutes.

Expelled - No Intelligence Allowed DVD
by:
Ben Stein
In this DVD Richard Dawkins states that the molecular structure of life could have been designed...by aliens (but not God, of course). 'Expelled' is a film produced by Ben Stein which contends that academics who criticize evolution are very often expelled from academia. 'Expelled' opened in 1,052 theaters, more than any other documentary before it, and grossed over $2,900,000 in its first weekend, the third biggest opening for a documentary. The New York Times described it as "a conspiracy-theory rant masquerading as investigative inquiry" and "an unprincipled propaganda piece that insults believers and nonbelievers alike." That's how good it really is.

Can Atheism Save Europe? DVD Debate
by:
Christopher Hitchens vs. John Lennox
At the Edinburgh International Festival in 2009, Prof. John Lennox debated Christopher Hitchens on the subject, "Can Atheistm Save Europe?" A New Europe is emerging from the old order and with it, a modern version of an old philosophy. Dubbed the "New Atheism", its advocates are calling for the adandonment of Europe's religious heritage and the adoption of an aggressive secularism. Religion is detrimental to society, they argue. Indeed, in the words of Christopher Hitchens, it "poisons everything". Some, such as Professor John Lennox, strongly disagree. They maintain that, far from undermining society, the preservation of religious thought, and Christianity in particular, is vital to the survival of Western civilization. All this leads to the inevitable questions: Should atheism replace Christianity in Europe? Does atheism have a better record than Christianity? And finally: Where would the New Atheism lead the New Europe? The audience voted by a show of hands that John Lennox won this debate.

Evolution - The Grand Experiment DVD (Part 1)
by:
Carl Werner
Filmed on 3 continents and in seven countries over a 12-year period, this DVD features highlights from 12 dig sites, 60 museums, and many universities. Narrated by Andres Williams of London, this episode documents many misleading Darwinian museum displays, science magazine articles, and television documentaries including 'dinosaurs with feathers' and 'walking whales'. Watch committed evolutionists admit to lack of evidence, speculation promoted as fact and missing links of huge proportions. A shocking and eye-opening presentation.
Dr Carl Werner received his undergraduate degree in biology, with distinction, at the University of Missouri, graduating summa cum laude. He received his doctoral degree in medicine at the age of 23. He was the recipient of the Norman D. Jones Science Award and was the executive producer of Evolution: The Grand Experiment video series.
