BEHIND THE SUN
Review From: <Rick.C.Nolte@den.mmc.com> Open Doors has produced a video called "Behind the Sun". It is an excellent presentation of the problems that national believers in Muslim countries are facing. The video chronicles the adventures/trials of a man returning to his home (Muslim) country after converting to Christianity during his college days in the US. It is about 1 hour long, and is extremely well done (I've heard over 1 million was spent to make the video). Although the man's story is fictional (I think), the events/ situations that he encounters are not - according to those familiar with the middle-east. I highly recommend this video. It is both informative and exciting. Available from Open Doors, P.O. Box 27001, Santa Ana, CA 92799 714-531-6000 800-788-5574 [I just called Open Doors about this and discovered that this movie is available only as a film (i.e. not a video) which can be loaned to a church group, and must be accompanied by Open Doors' literature which follows up on the film.--NW]

BREAKING THE SILENCE-PERSECUTED CHURCH
I just saw a copy of this half-hour video produced by WEF for the Sept'96 Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church. It is NOT dated, so you can still order copies to develop awareness within your circle of influence. The video primarily consists of footage of well-known American Christian leaders giving brief calls to action on behalf of the persecuted church. The footage on persecution is minimal and not very intense. The video strongly encourages prayer and political activism as responses. One part seemed corny when Max Lucado, did a video interview with Michael Horowitz, and Josh McDowell, but overall the quality is high. Contact 708-668-0440 for a copy.

MAKE A DIFFERENCE: Mobilizing Your Church to New Mission Vision
From: William Stearns <73502.3126@compuserve.com> A bunch of us did a quick videotaping at the close of Chicago's ACMC conference. Larry Wright of Proclamedia is in his final editing phase, and I'll be finishing the accompanying manual next week. "Make a Difference " is basically a four-session training package for mobilizers. If a church can't attend a "What's After October?" Seminar, this package gives them about the same thing. It keys them into the basic, resource- matched steps of moving a fellowship into intelligent activism. I think Larry was saying the package price will be $39. Available September 15th, it's one of the new resources we're hoping good ol' Ern at William Carey Library will carry. That way, when anybody says, "How do I start encouraging my fellowship toward more outreach and missions?" we all can say, "Call 800-MISSION."

PERSPECTIVES
From: Amy Barstad <ABarstad@CProject.com> The new Perspectives promo video is here! It is upbeat and positive and only a little over 4 minutes long. This means you can show it in your church service, Sunday School classes, Home Groups, Bible Studies and to pastors and leaders. The purpose is to prick the interest of the average Christian who has never heard of Perspectives. It begins in a GenX style with people telling the typical reasons why they wouldn't be interested in Perspectives. The bulk of the video is filled with testimonies of pastors, GenXers, Moms, Retired folks of how God used Perspectives to revive their lives. It was produced in partnership with a local Colorado PSP coordinator, Bill Scott, our Caleb Project Media Dept. (that produced "To the Ends of the Earth" and Light the Window") and Bill Coffin at Joyco studio. We spent close to $2,000 so we would like to recover some of the costs, so order now! US$8 through Caleb Project. Send orders to "hbritton@cproject.com". Please include your mailing address.

SANTOSA'S STORY
I just watched this video last week. It's for YOUNG children, but is very well-produced. It tells about the life of the Quetchua Indians, clearly communicating concepts regarding Bible translation and literacy. It's about 15 minutes long and is sub-divided into several shorter segments. Although Mission To The World produced it, the video does not promote any particular missionary or agency. Write MTW for more information: P.O. Box 29765, Atlanta, GA 30359.

The video closes with a summary of the avenues available for Christian witness among Chinese and a powerful challenge to become personally involved...For more information and a form to use to order the Primer, send e-mail to Justin Long via gem@xc.org with the single line "info China Primer" in the subject line.

STEPHEN'S TEST OF FAITH
Twelve-year-old Stephen is mocked and ridiculed for his faith. He shares this humiliation with his parents at home. That night Stephen takes a faith-building journey during a dream. He travels through history meeting Jesus, Stephen the martyr, families about to enter the Roman coliseum, Willima Tyndale, Christian children in today's Middle east, and others who dare to share their faith... This walk with faithful heroes encourages us with their historical call to continue following Jesus Christ when we are put to "the test." 22 minutes. US$15 + $3 S&H from Voice of the Martyrs, P.O.Box 443, Bartlesville, OK 74005 For credit card orders, call 800-747-0085.

TEN-4-0
Many of you will remember the premier of this powerful video at the GCOWE consultation in Seoul, Korea, in May this year. TEN-4-0 combines the excellence of contemporary music, uncompromising news footage from across the Ten Forty window and the enduring challenge of Jesus' command. It includes a lively interview with George Verwer and details of how to get involved in the Ten Forty window. If you would like to purchase a copy of the video, or if you would like further details on how you could secure a master edition, customised for your organisation write Marie Gwilliam ICT, PO Box 660, Forest Hill, London SE23 3ST (NTSC format @ $10 PAL format @ ?7--Make cheques payable to Operation Mobilisation)

THE CALL/COUNTDOWN
Submitted by: Jerry Crosby <JWCrosby@aol.com> InterAct Ministries has produced two videos as part of an integrated missions presentation, that also includes brochures and a script for the presenter. The idea is to capitalize on the strengths of each of these presentation tools for moving boomers (primarily) to missionary service. <The Call> is a 5 minute dramatic spoof about what happens to one man who tries to escape the call on his life. <Countdown> is 16 minutes in length and very offbeat--definitely not your usual missions video! Utilizing interviews, old movie clips, animation and effects it challenges viewers to consider the brevity of life and how they can make their lives count for eternity through missionary service. Although the brochures are specific to InterAct's work, the video and script are generic enough (the name InterAct is never mentioned, although the fields are represented) that practically any organization can use them to mobilize people towards missionary service. The integrated presentation which includes both videos is available for $10 (postage included) through InterAct Ministries, 31000 SE Kelso Road, Boring, OR 97009; or email: countdown@ interactministries.org; or phone: 1.800.258.3464.

THE HARVEST: A MODERN-DAY PARABLE
17 minutes. A powerful true-life story about a farmer in N. Dakota and how his experience parallels the church as we look to the harvest in world missions.

THE QUEST
"The Quest," a top-quality one hour video of three PRC scholars in the US sharing their journeys to faith in Christ, has been edited, deleting brief scenes and comments that could have been construed as specifically political. Feedback on the rest of the Quest has been extremely enthusiastic, from PRCs and PRC ministries both inside and outside China. These new editions of "the Quest" are available from CBN (e-mail to gregory.bryl@cbn.org or call 757-579-2743) or from China Harvest (e-mail to chrystal.wynne@cbn.org or call 800-715-3292). PAL copies for use inside China are available free, and non-commercial duplication for ministry/evangelism there, in whatever quantities, is welcomed. NTSC or PAL copies for use outside the PRC, for example with PRC student ministry, are available for a suggested donation of US$9.95. The video is entirely in Mandarin, but a written English/Chinese summary is available with it.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO BE?
(GenX peice by TEAM) TEAM has a brand-new 15-minute video that I saw a couple of weeks ago, and I highly recommend it! It is designed to challenge college students to consider missions as a career. (It'll work well with groups a little older or younger than the college crowd, too.) The quality of the video is excellent--the kind of video work that young people are accustomed to seeing on T.V., and it gives a very appropriate challenge that is inspiring rather than guilt-inducing. What makes this even better is that, although TEAM produced it, they don't mention TEAM until the tag at the end; making this video usable for a mission mobilizer in any organization! To get a copy, email Glen Felty <GFelty@TEAMworld.org>--TEAM is giving this video out for free, but I think it only appropriate that we pay TEAM for this tool if we use it to recruit for another mission agency.
