The Basket of Flowers


Mary is falsely accused of stealing, and the penalty is death. She had always been taught that it is better to die for the truth than to live for a lie-for the worst pillow to sleep on is the pillow of a guilty conscience.

This is a story that will cause you to shed a tear or two and at the same time cultivate a hope that will never disappoint!

The Wanderer


In a breathtaking story based on Psalm 32, David Aspinall is searching for something. Deep in his heart he longs for something better than home. The inheritance of the family farm just isn't enough to fill his longing for wealth and adventure. As the seeds of discontent take root, David makes a choice from which there may be no return. As he wakes one day in the desert of Africa, scorched by the sun and allured by a mirage, he begins to see what he was so blind to before. His father's parting words echo in his mind: Sometimes, one must lose what he has in order to gain what he needs. Is it too late for David to gain what he needs the most? Is there still time to return? The Wanderer is an epic drama that will powerfully influence its listeners to be "guided by His eye" in order to see that the greatest treasures in life are usually found at home.

Buried In The Snow


Far away, in a chalet nestled high up in the Jura Mountains, a boy and his grandfather are caught in an avalanche during the harshest winter in memory. Surviving on little more than the milk of a young goat, Jacques and his grandfather are faced with the bitter reality that they may not make it through the winter. When it looks like life couldn't possibly be worse, the weight of the unrelenting snow is compromising the integrity of the roof, and the integrity of their faith in God. After fending off a pack of ravenous wolves, starvation, and coming to grips with the brevity of life, Jacques will learn an important lesson that though God is often beyond our understanding, we are never beyond His love.

My Golden Ship


We all know what it's like to harbor that gnawing feeling that rears its ugly head as envy. Christians are not exempt, as we see in the case of Charlie. "But don't it seem hard that some folks should have everything, and the other folks nothin'?" Charlie soon realizes that envy easily escalates to bitterness and resentment, and that his idea of "having everything" is far from the truth.

Encounter the tortured slave Seyd, the wounded widow Livia, the materialist Phebe, and the vengeful centurion Varro.
