Envisioning Faith: Lessons from the Bible and its lands (vol. 1)

Bible events occurred in distinct times and places, all of which helped to shape the accounts we find in both the Old and New Testaments. The Envisioning Faith series takes the viewer to the land of the Bible to explore significant events in their historical setting. Shot on location in Israel and surrounding area, these documentary lessons bring biblical events to life. (Click the images to watch the videos.)

Passage 5 Treasures of Qumran: The Dead Sea Scrolls is a documentary offering the viewer a tour of the home of an ancient Jewish sect thought responsible for producing the Dead Sea Scrolls. We examine three magnificent treasures: the devotion of Qumran’s inhabitants, the place they called home, and the oldest copies of the Hebrew Bible ever discovered.

​Passage 4 In the Shadow of Gilboa: Reaping & Sowing profiles the achievements of Gideon and the demise of King Saul during the period of the judges and early Israelite monarchy. Filmed on location at Mt. Gilboa and Beit Shan, and the Jezreel and Harod valleys, this video reveals the consequences of personal choice as highlighted by the lives of these two Israelite leaders.

Passage 3 Dan: City of Unfaithfulness examines this northern Israelite community that played such a prominent role in Old Testament history. The archaeology and history of this site substantiate the biblical accounts, which reveal the idolatry of the Israelites and the disastrous consequences they endured as a result of their estrangement from God.

Picture
Passage 2 The Ministry of Jesus in Northern Israel takes the viewer to three famous sites involved in Jesus' public ministry: Cana, the Mount of Beatitudes, and Caesarea Philippi. In these locations, we learn of Jesus' personal identity, his preaching, and his power over nature, and then we explore the significance of these events for 21st-century living.

Passage 1 Jerusalem: An Unforgettable City documents the significance and grandeur of Jerusalem and its relationship to biblical history and thought. This film examines the unique location, topography, history, and archaeological environs of what many consider to be the most important city in all of human history.
