Description

Planet Earth: Tilt-A-Whirl. Think a minute and you'll begin to see the connection. If fact, thinking will be what you do with every minute watched of this DVD. Combining captivating cinematography – visual impact images - with articulate "thinking out loud," this DVD addresses the "hard" questions of philosophy and Christianity – evil, death, existence, etc. We are challenged to "confront our unbelief and petty fears so that the goodness and greatness of God might astound us and fill our hearts with gratitude and joy." (Scott Anderson, Executive Director, Desiring God). This sort of visual/thinking exercise (a bookumentary) is a great addition to a worldview or high school Bible course and would work well both in a family discussion setting or a small group/co-op. ~ Janice
