| Seeds |
A man's garden is not growing while
his neighbor's garden is flourishing; he forgot to use seeds. |
Is there something missing in your
life? Jesus can give your life lasting meaning and purpose, if you
give him the chance.
|
 |
| Dr. Shami - Read My Book |
A seeker challenges Dr. Shami's authority. |
Jesus performed incredible miracles
that no one in history has ever done-we have reason to trust him.
|
|
| I Want to Serve God
*TRIVIA*
|
A man wants to serve God, but only
wants to do things that don't require effort and asks, "Got anything
like that?"
|
Not if you want to serve God. |
|
| The First Commandment |
Every Sunday, a couple comes up with
a new reason to not go to church.
|
Is God first in your life? |
|
| Rewind Those Words |
An illustration of how life would
be if we could take back all the words we wish we should not have
said.
|
How are your words affecting those
around you? |

| A
Question for God |
A man, who is given the chance to
ask God anything, wants to know why shoe strings break. A friend thinks
he should ask a deeper question.
|
With all the answers the Bible has,
reading it is like having God right there in your living room. The
thing I didn't see addressed was shoestrings. |
|
| A Seat with Satan |
At Judgement, a man is assigned the
same waiting group as Satan and complains, "But, I believed in God!"
|
So did Satan, Mr. Johnson. He didn't
put his faith in God either. |
|
| The Third Commandment |
After a father hits his thumb with
a hammer, he is reminded by his son to not take the Lord's name in
vain. |
Remember, the Third Commandment,
"You shall not use the Lord's name in vain." When we do,
we show disrespect. |
|
| W.O.O.F.L.D.O.W. |
The "We're out of fuel and the
landing gear don't work" light goes on and the instruction manual
gives the Gospel message. |
According to the Bible, that's what
you need to do to go to Heaven. |
|
| Won't Order That Again
*TRIVIA*
|
A man says, "Once I get burned, I
never order the same thing again" and has trouble finding something
to eat at a restaurant.
|
Don't let a single experience keep
you from a relationship with Jesus. |

| I'm All Ears |
A woman gives advice before listening
to her friend's problem. |
The Bible says, "He who answers
before listening--that is his folly and his shame."
|
|
| Change Course
*TRIVIA*
|
A captain insists that the other
ship change course to avoid collision, only to find out the other
"ship" is a lighthouse. |
When we are told to change course,
we have a choice to make: do we change, or continue on the same path?
When it comes to Jesus, what choice will you make?
|
|
| House on Fire
*TRIVIA*
|
A man is more concerned with lunch
than saving people in a burning building.
|
People around us need Jesus. Do you
care? |
|
| Professor Pettibone - Good Deeds |
Professor Pettibone does a good deed
in secret, but then makes sure his good deed is noticed. |
When we do things to impress others
then that is our only reward. But, when we do good deeds secretly
then our Father in Heaven will reward us.
|
|
| Priorities |
A man buys every electronic gadget
available, but can't afford to send his son to a Christian school.
|
Priorities... where are yours? |

| The Road Map |
While the directions on a map are
clear, a couple ends up lost because they think the directions are
inconvenient.
|
If the Bible seems irrelevant or
outdated to you, you may have drifted further from God than you think. |
|
| Cocoon |
A father tries to teach his son patience
by having him watch a butterfly emerge from its cocoon.
|
Even if it appears like He isn't,
God IS at work in your life. |
|
| Decisions |
The effects of various decisions
are reviewed, but the most important decision has eternal consequences.
|
Jesus said if you're not for me,
you're against me. Where do you stand with him? |
|
| You Have to be Hired |
Man complains he has never received
a paycheck, but refuses to officially apply for the job. |
Are you trying to get to Heaven on
your own terms? Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life:
no one comes to the Father except through me." Do you know Jesus?
|
|
| Good Deeds
*TRIVIA*
|
A man smashes his friend's 57 Chevy
and tries to make up for it by doing good deeds. |
A hundred good deeds can never erase
one sin. Only Jesus can remove our sins, if we ask him to. Are you
trying to cover your sins with good deeds?

|
| A Flaw in the Manual |
A man calls Heaven to complain about
having to do unto others as he would have them do unto him, especially
when it involves his brother-in-law.
|
We can not apply God's standard only
when it is convenient |
|
| The Will |
A man attends the funerals of strangers
to see if he is in their will because of the good things he has done. |
God offers Heaven to anyone willing
to become one of His children. Have you asked God for forgiveness
through Jesus and become part of His family?
|
|
| Background Music
*TRIVIA*
|
The background music reveals what
will happen next in a series of situations. |
We don't know what will happen to
us next, but Jesus does, and He wants us to trust Him with our future.
|
|
| The Disclaimer |
A man wants to add disclaimers to
the Gospel message, such as saying really nice people don't need the
Gospel. |
But, you aren't the judge, God is,
and He's offered Heaven to ANYone who puts their faith in His son
Jesus.
|
|
| Listening
*TRIVIA*
|
Harold is afraid to talk to his friend,
who is going through a divorce, because he doesn't know what to say.
|
Listening, it says a lot. |

| We'd Love To |
A couple gives false excuses to not
have dinner at a friend's house.
|
While we may be able to fool others,
we can't fool God. |
|
| Express Judgement |
At Judgement, a man is unable to
pick a date in which he did not sin and asks to be given a break.
|
You were given a break. Jesus died
to pay the penalty of your sins for you. |
|
| Sports Highlights |
A sports announcer reports on the
abysmal failure of several one-man teams.
|
Are you active in a local church?
Or are you trying to live a Christian life on your own? |
|
| The Announcement |
Once again, Frank promises Bob that
he is going to live a moral life. |
Keeping promises is something we
do in response to the love God has shown us, it's not something we
do to earn His love.
|
|
The Answering Machine
*TRIVIA* |
A man makes a fool of himself with
the messages he leaves on his date's answering machine because he's
worried about what she will think of him.
|
Is there an area of your life that
you are worrying about? Why not turn it over to God. |

| Amazing Alan - Camel Scene |
Amazing Alan attempts to jump through
the eye of a needle that is welded to the top of a 55-gallon drum
while riding a camel.
|
Jesus said it's easier to do that
than for a rich man to get into Heaven. |
|
| The
G.O.Y.A.C. |
A man becomes a member of the "Get
Out Your Aggression Club." For a hundred bucks per month, GOYAC will
get a hold of the person who irritated you and let you give them a
piece of your mind.
|
Jesus gave us a different way of
treating people--treat other people like you would want them to treat
you. |
|
| Prison |
A father is faithful to visit his
son in prison every week despite the distance he must travel. (Not
a humorous spot.) |
Regardless of what you've done, or
who you are, you have a Father in Heaven who loves you, who is there
for you, and wants you to turn to Him.
|
|
| The Bomb |
A live time bomb needs to be disarmed
immediately, but the bomb specialist suddenly is less concerned when
he discovers its clock has no display.
|
Many people have this same attitude
towards their own death. We don't know when we will die. Do you know
where you will spend eternity? |
|
| Amazing Alan - Bee Scene |
Amazing Alan attempts to remove a
handful of honey out of a giant Mongolian beehive to show how dangerous
it is to fool with temptation. |
As Alan disappears across the meadow,
he is illustrating the most effective way the Bible gives us for dealing
with temptation: run.

| Amazing Alan - Propeller Scene |
To illustrate the odds of all the
prophecies pertaining to Jesus coming true, Amazing Alan tries to
drink a milkshake without spilling a drop while strapped to the propeller
of an airplane.
|
Jesus said that no one can go to
God except through him. No person in history has the qualifications
to make that claim, except Jesus. |
|
| Amazing Alan - Piano Scene |
Alan calls the Bible "simply smashing"
while standing under a piano that is hanging from a rope. |
Alan, a lot of people think the Bible
is just a book of rules and laws. We want to illustrate that it's
a book with history, with plots and people that are real and moving.
|
|
| It's Simple - But Have You Done It?
|
People are not willing to do the
obvious: to lose weight, eat less and exercise; to save money, spend
less than you make. |
The way to have peace with God and
a home in Heaven is also straightforward: admit we are sinful and
turn to Jesus for forgiveness... but have you done it?
|
|
| I'm Sorry Number 491 |
Jesus said that the number of times
we have to forgive someone is seventy times seven. Bob has asked to
be forgiven for the 491st time, so Frank thinks he does not have to
accept the apology.
|
Jesus was telling us we need to forgive
each other A LOT, not just 490 times. |
|
| Why Did Jesus Have to Die? |
A man is convinced the $20 he gave
to charity will get him into Heaven. |
If being good is all that is needed
to get into Heaven, then why did Jesus have to die on the cross?

| Amazing Alan - Cannon Scene |
By being shot out of a cannon, rated
for one mile, to hit a target two miles away, Alan illustrates that
we fall short without Jesus.
|
Alan, we all fall short of God's
standards. That's why we need Jesus and His gift of forgiveness. |
|
| Amazing Alan - Canyon Scene |
Amazing Alan is at the Wide River
Canyon, where he will jump the crevice in his VW bus, but an industrial
strength bungee cord is attached to his bumper.
|
Just as the bungee cord will stop
Alan, there is one thing that will keep man from entering Heaven:
sin. |
|
| Agent X |
Agent X is given a Bible as his best
defense, but Agent X wants a tank shaped like a Porsche. |
This book is your best defense. It
provides everything you need. Read it. Your life depends on it.
|
|
| Good News / Bad News |
We deal with all kinds of bad news,
from a girlfriend wanting to "just be friends" to the news we are
not getting into Heaven.
|
The Bible says we have all sinned,
but the good news is God sent His Son Jesus to pay the price for our
sins. |
|
| On Hold |
A man, who needs a miracle real quick,
calls Heaven and gets the answering service. |
A prayer can be as short as, "Lord,
help me." Isn't it nice to know that God doesn't have an answering
service, and that He is always there?

| Religions-R-Us |
A man wants to buy a Bible, but the
salesman wants to sell him Dr. Shami's new book, "Prophecies for Today."
|
The Bible, there's no other book
like it. |
|
| Church of the "Blank" |
The Church of the Blank is a church
that endeavors to never offend anyone. |
God wants what is best for us. Ignoring
His moral standards does not change His expectations of us, regardless
of how offensive you find them.
|
|
| The Dollar in Your Pocket |
A man wants to buy 100 lottery tickets
because he wants to do big things for God. |
It's not what you would do with the
money if you won the lottery, it's what you will do with the dollar
in your pocket.
|
|
| 'Cause I'm a Real Nice Guy |
Because Bob thinks he is a real nice
guy, he wants to live in your house. |
Do you expect to get into Heaven
if you've never met its owner? Join God's family, get to know Jesus
and be welcomed home.

| Battle for Pizza |
In the middle of a battle, a Private
asks the General to have a pizza delivered and doesn't understand
why the General will not grant his request.

| Savor/Savior |
A man tries to apply for the position
of "Savior" at a restaurant named "Savor," but discovers he does not
meet the qualifications.
|
The penalty for our sin is death
and in order for a Savior to save us, he must pay that penalty. |
|
| "I'm Sorry" World's Record |
Bob and Jay await the arrival of
Mr. Smith, who may set a new world record: the 10,000th time Mr. Smith
has said, "I'm sorry" to his wife without meaning it.
|
When you say you are sorry, do your
actions show you mean it? |
