John Wycliffe first translated the Scriptures into English in the fourteenth century from Latin. But his hand-copied Bibles were burnt by the authorities. A hundred and fifty years later, William Tyndale set out to give the Bible to ordinary folk in the common tongue - this time, from the original Greek and Hebrew. But this was illegal and he fled to Europe pursued by agents of Henry VIII. Nevertheless, his translation was mass-produced on the newly invented printing presses and smuggled into England. Eventually, betrayed by a friend, he was arrested, tried and executed. His eloquent translation was a priceless gift to all English speaking peoples and a fitting memorial to his courage and genius. An award-winning dramatic film with a distinguished cast led by Roger Rees as William Tyndale, Keith Barron as Henry VIII, Oona Kirsch as Anne Boleyn, Willoughby Goddard as Cardinal Wolsey and Bernard Archard as Sir Thomas More. A Grenville production with Channel Four, directed by Tony Tew. 'A gripping tale, beautifully told'. (Daily Mail) 'Admirably convincing'. (Sunday Times) Running time: 93 minutes

Passion Founder and worldwide Christian communicator has returned with an amazing DVD series for 2011, Passion City Church Resources. In his previous Passion Talk Series, he teaches and encourages ways of the Bible and of the Lord, and continues to do so in the Passion City Church Resources. The whole of the series includes multi-part messages from the church in Atlanta where the DVD’s where recorded, and serves as a fantastic resource for ministries worldwide. Grace. Unexpected. Undeserved. Yet the core of the story is the gospel. Unique to the person and message of Jesus Christ, grace is simply God at work doing what we could never do. Nothing we can say or do can elicit more or less of the lavish grace of God. Grace is the essence of our Creator and the way to a personal connection with Him that lasts forever and the source of the strength that enables us to walk in truth. ‘For God made Jesus, who knew no sin, to become sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.’ 2 Corinthians 5:21. The Grace that is freely given cost the Son of God everything and ignites within all who receive it a desire to live for the One who sets us free.

For anyone moved by the song 'I can only imagine' This movie shows the life that poured into the lyrics This powerful film offers a unique look at the song that changed millions It's the song that brings ultimate hope to so many - often in the midst of life's most challenging moments. Amazingly, the song was written in mere minutes by MercyMe lead singer Bart Millard. In reality, those lyrics took a lifetime to craft. Although he found faith at a young age, life wasn't easy for Bart. He leaned into an active imagination and his love of music as escapes from a troubled home life. As he grew older, Bart turned to football in hopes of somehow connecting with his abusive father. But a career-ending injury - combined with the vision of a teacher who saw unlimited potential - set Bart on a musical pathway. Chasing a dream while running from broken relationships with his father and Shannon, his childhood sweetheart, Bart hits the road in an old, decrepit tour bus with his new band MercyMe - named for his grandmother's favourite expression. With the guidance of a grizzled music-industry insider, the band begins a journey none of them could ever have imagined. Directed by the Erwin Brothers (October Baby, Moms' Night Out, and Woodlawn), I CAN ONLY IMAGINE stars J. Michael Finley, Madeline Carroll, Trace Adkins, Priscilla Shirer, with Cloris Leachman and Dennis Quaid. A gripping reminder of the power of forgiveness, I CAN ONLY IMAGINE beautifully illustrates that no one is ever too far from God's love - or from an eternal home in Heaven.
