This video is in two parts, intended for clergy, congregations, and staff of shelters and domestic violence programs. Three aspects are focused upon: (1) understanding the dynamics of domestic violence; (2) supporting individuals experiencing domestic violence through the cooperation of religious and secular communities; and (3) developing programs for the prevention of domestic violence. This video is divided into two segments: Part 1 (37min) addresses the various aspects of the problems and situations of battered women.
Part 2 (22min) discusses possible clergy and congregation responses to these problems. It is recommended that there be two separate study sessions, each of two hours' duration, to allow attendees to absorb the information presented in Part 1 and furmulated questions prior to viewing Part 2.

This series is an educaitonal program for drug and alcohol prevention. Each video includes program and public service announcement (PSA).

We have heard the expression "time heals all wounds." Unfortunately, it is not true. The truth is time often makes things worse. What we need is a biblical and balanced program to help people overcome their hurts, habits, and hang-ups. Rev. Rick Warren of Saddleback Church began an intense study of the Scriptures to discover what God had to say about "recovery." He found the principles of recovery given by Christ in His most famous message, the Sermon on the Mount. His study resulted in a ten-week series of messages called "The Road to Recovery" and during that series his associate pastor John Baker developed the participant's and leader's guides. Whether your congregation is large or small, this program will help you implement an ongoing Christ-centered Recovery Ministry in your church. The curriculum kit includes:
20-minute videotaped introductory guide for leaders; l Leader's Guide; Participant's guides 1-4; 3.5 diskette with 25 lessons; Road to Recovery series; 8-tape audio cassette series; sermon transcripts; Reproducible promotional materials
