Saint Street (DVD)
$14.95Saint Street is a classic American Christmas tale for the entire family. The story follows Percy who is a good man, but has found himself caught up in the riches of the world and is neglecting his most prized possession — his family.
Christmas Eve has arrived and Percy is still hard at work late into the night, once again breaking his promises to his wife and kids that he would leave early so that they could drive to their traditional family Christmas party. After being warned time and again to change his ways from a heavenly being from beyond, Percy is about to experience some grave consequences for his actions.
In a series of tragic events, Percy faces humble circumstances after losing everything in a car accident — his family, job and home. Paralyzed from the waist down and confined to a wheelchair, he is forced to be homeless and live in the gritty world of misfits on Saint Street.
It is on Saint Street where Percy sees the light and changes his ways trough the examples of the most unlikely of souls. We soon discover that things aren’t always what they seem and second chances and redemption just might be closer that we think.

Christmas Star
$16.99Robert Reed gave his life for his country in the early days of World War II. His sacrifice was honored when his widow and son were presented with the Congressional Medal of Honor. Each Christmas, the final decoration Madge Reed hangs on the family’s tree is that medal. Sadly, rather than being a symbol of honor for young Jimmy Reed, the shining star represents loss, pain, and suffering.
However, a letter delivered by one of Robert’s fellow soldiers poses a mystery that puts a father’s sacrifice and faith into perspective. Not only does the letter bring new meaning to the star hanging on the Christmas tree, but it also illuminates the events of the very first Christmas.
Then, when least expected, a Christmas miracle turns a bit of holiday sadness into a joy that the boy has never known.

Marys First Christmas
$13.73We have all seen the story of the birth of Jesus portrayed at Christmas. It is a beautiful story, and we never tire of watching each scene unfold. “Mary’s First Christmas” is the story of the birth of our Savior as described through the eyes of Joseph and Mary. We may gain insight from them as they picture for us the adversity as well as the joy and excitement they experienced from the time of the angel’s appearance to the wondrous birth of God’s Son.
We catch a glimpse of the awe that Mary felt upon Gabriel’s announcement, of the joy she shared with Elizabeth and Zechariah as they awaited the miraculous birth of their own son. We see Joseph’s apprehension at Mary’s announcement, and how then after seeing the angel in a dream commits his life to God as Jesus’ earthly father. We can feel the excitement of the taxing journey to Bethlehem for the census, the fear and hope they felt, even to Joseph’s naming of the little donkey who carried the King of the Ages on his back…”Rocky”, in memory of the sometimes rocky and dangerous path they followed.
We see some of the sensations they felt with their description of the camp fires, the sheep for sacrifice, the beautiful stars in the night sky, and then the discouragement of finding no room upon reaching their destination. But God was always with them, and because of His grace, we know today what they did not yet understand…that this wonderful child, born in a stable, the very Son of God, would bring salvation to a sinful and lost world.
