All the while COO! models healthy choices and family values. Regular friends bring enthusiasm (Brandy), encouragement (Grandma Zippy), smarts (Hedge), and even skepticism (Mr. Flabbinjaw). As needed, a range of experts 'come on over' to play through dance or theatre or rock-n-roll guitar. Anything can happen through play: mad scientists, giant tinfoil spaceships, Bubble-ologists, flying hedgehogs and more!

These materials include fun discussion points, games, and scripture that encourage families to play and pray together. Read more
Taqwacore chronicles the nascent Muslim punk rock movement in America. It was inspired by the work of Michael Knight, who converted to Islam in rebellion against his white-supremacist father. He went on to pen the novel The Taqwacores (a term combining the Muslim concept of God consciousness with hardcore punk), a manifesto for disillusioned Islamic teens. Soon young Muslim musicians were contacting him and a tour idea was hatched. The film follows Knight and a variety of young subversives on tour as they shock and awe spectators in the U.S. before bringing their music to Lahore. They break every taboo along the way. As Knight exclaims, ''they're giving the finger to both sides''. The film charts their brave, foolish, and often exhilarating attempts to navigate the gap between their cultures and their countries, their religion and their individuality. Read more
Doing the Right Thing explores the ethical and moral breakdown that is hitting culture from all sides. Through panel discussions, interviews, and live student questions it raises ethical issues in a non-condemning but challenging way, stimulating thought, discussion, and action. The DVD sessions and accompanying participant's guide encourage viewers to examine themselves and how ethical and character issues relate to their lives at home, school, and the workplace. As a result of this discussion and self-examination, participants will exhort each other and promote an ethic of virtue in their spheres of influence and in the culture at large. This examination of ethics consists of six sessions, each designed to be completed in approximately one hour. Each session consists of approximately thirty minutes of video and thirty minutes of discussion. Session topics include: -How did we get into this mess? -Is there truth, a moral law we all can know? -If we know what is right, can we do it? -What does it mean to be human? -Ethics in the market place -Ethics in public life Read more
