Our family was granted the chance to review the Torchlighters: The John Wesley Story over the last six weeks. This is an action-packed 30 minute episode featuring the founder of the Methodist movement, John Wesley.
As a young boy, John Wesley was miraculously saved from his burning family home leading to his mother calling him a "brand picked from the burning", believing he was spared by God for a special purpose. In the video Wesley is shown trying to live out his special purpose by his own strengths and good works, only to find repeated failure and frustration.
Finally after several years of struggle Wesley is able to embrace his saving grace. However, his message is not welcomed in the established churches of the time. So forced with a decision to make, we learn that John breaks the rules of his time and takes his message to the needy, outcast citizens beyond the church walls.
Special features included on this DVD are:
~ Comprehensive PDF leader guide
~ Reproducible PDF student handouts
~ English and Spanish language and subtitles
~ 55 minute documentary on John Wesley
The Torchlighters series is geared toward youth aged 8-12 and presents the lives of true-life heroes from Christian history. The John Wesley DVD retails for $9.99, a great price to help children see what God can do through a “Torchlighter”.
Torchlighter: well-known and little-known Christian men, women and children who in response to God’s call, dedicated their lives to a life of whole-hearted commitment and passionate service to Jesus.
Our family watched this DVD for the first time together one evening. Since then my youngest daughter, McKenzie {5} has watched the DVD 3 or 4 more times. She loves it and says “it is filled with God’s love”! I can’t argue with that!
Overall, we have enjoyed this series and I hope to add more of the Torchlighter series to our DVD collection. Be sure to check out what my CrewMates thought of this DVD and the other DVD’s being reviewed by clicking the banner below:
