Video Illustration

Produced by Church Fuel

How will you use your time? This is an important question to ask, and this video reminds us to use our time wisely. We have to use our time to serve the LORD and others, rather than ourselves, and to make a difference during our short time on this earth.

The Thanksgiving Question

Video Illustration

Produced by Freebridge Media

So what are you thankful for? You’d think that would be an easy question to answer. Yet how often does the speed of life blind us? How often are the blessings we experience blurred by the chaos we walk in? While we’re busy trying to keep up, do we fail to recognize all we have to be grateful for? Life has a way of chiseling away at a heart of gratitude. But what if we could stop, pause in the moment, and recognize the incredible work of God which surrounds us? What if the intensity of the day to day could be stilled by the peace of thanksgiving? What if we could practice the words of Scripture and give thanks in everything? Perhaps these are the questions we need to ask ourselves so we can begin to see the beauty of a life spent giving thanks.

Two By Two – Noah And The Ark: Mini-Movie

Video Illustration

Produced by Church Visuals

God's creation was perfect. After sin entered the world it left a wake of destruction behind. God told a man named Noah to build a big boat. This boat would rescue Noah and his family. One day God would send a better rescue plan. Rather than a boat, it was a man named Jesus. He would not just wash away sin for a time, instead, His blood washed it away forever. This movie is great as a lesson opener or series promo video for Kid's Ministry.
