Searching for Christmas thumbnail

This is a longer (22:30) video that is worth the time, especially if you’re in the mood for Christmas. You’ll follow Pastor Andy Cook as he uncovers the Christmas story from the eyes of those who first experienced it. This made-for-TV special (22:30) will take you from Bethlehem to Petra, to Nazareth and beyond … before finally finding the story that changed the world.

 

Written in the Dust

Ever wonder what Jesus wrote in the dirt when he was defending a woman caught in adultery? Most of us have. But of course, we are 2,000 years removed from the event and most of us don’t come from a Jewish culture radically committed to the Text. This video (6:30) will take you from Jerusalem to the desert … and leave you pondering another way of reading this story!

 

Peter Grace

Ever felt “disqualified” from ministry? No one ever felt more disqualified than Simon Peter. After the resurrection, he and the other disciples didn’t stick around Jerusalem. They knew they’d all wasted the most incredible opportunity of their lives. And yet they all found the grace to follow again, right their on the familiar shores of home. Watch it now (4:47).

 


Gates of Hades thumbnail

When Jesus pronounced that the “Gates of Hades” would not prevail against his church, he set off a race to interpret exactly what he meant. Was he making Peter the first pope? Was he looking for a confession of faith? Or was he asking us to do something so radical, that it would change the darkest corners of our world? Check out this visit (6:16) to the “Gates of Hades,” and you’ll see why Pastor Andy Cook thinks we finally know what Jesus really said there.

 

Exploring Hezekiah Tunnel

There’s a reason this is the most popular video (8:50) we’ve ever had on YouTube. The story of Hezekiah’s Tunnel is about as good as it gets when it comes to combining biblical history with archeological findings. Recorded in 2005, underneath the streets of Jerusalem.
