A VISUAL FEAST FROM BEGINNING TO END

A film of cultural entertainment.

Explore the Roman Empire in Asia and trace the journeys of St. Paul. Although the Apostle PAUL made three journeys through Asiatic Turkey (Anatolia), the first journey has always been regarded as the "toughest" journey. This feature documentary captures fascinating details of PAUL’S first journey along riverside trails, breathtaking city sites and Roman highways.

St. John and the Seven Churches of the Apocalypse

This new film takes the audience on a journey that will be familiar from their school days and especially their Sunday school education.
St. John and the Virgin Mary lived in Anatolia until the end of their lives. An abundance of historical and biblical accounts are told throughout this program.

Biblical Treasures of Turkey Part Two delights the audience with its exhilarating scenery and historical events that everybody has heard about, but has no idea where these sites were located or what they looked like.

We step inside a beautiful Roman villa among bubbling springs and decorative waterfalls in the most lush and verdant sylvan setting! The Greek musicians arrive to provide music and natives from the East perform Bacchic dances for the guests. The Mater Familias hosts this social gathering in her beautiful gown of gold. Cymbals, flutes and thirses. Bacchantes, sing delirious verses.

Christ’s choosing of His Apostles and crucifixion and resurrection is portrayed as PAUL speaks to the people of Antioch in Pisidia. The synagogue where he spoke still exists today and is the backdrop for this dramatization. You are there!

Scored to hauntingly beautiful music. A complete range of the natural sounds of nature throughout the film.
