I’m looking for Christian related documentaries that are pro-Christian and not the PBS/Discovery Channel stuff that denies God created stuff. Things like archeology, culture, Dead Sea Scrolls, anything about the Bible etc.

Thanks for asking the question. I watched a few of the videos from the Day of Discovery and was quite impressed. It was good to see a great selection of NT scholars like Klyne Snodgrass, Michael Wilkins, Craig Evans and Darrell Bock. I look forward to watching more.
Netflix has some good ones. You can subscribe for as low as $9.95 per month. I just watched the Bio on Dietrich Bonhoeffer (might have been a PBS one, don’t recall). It was pretty good.
I have several, “Living God Today” books with free access from: http://www.scribd.com
Also, “The Very First Hebrew Manual without ‘Fake’ Vowel Points.”
“Apocalypse” is about Miracles in 1992 and 1997 and 2004 and 2006 and 2010.

some are controversial, some are not. But all are educational. Parents please watch with your children and explain any errors that are made on behalf of the filmmaker. Always make sure that the views being expressed are inline with scripture, if not then explain and use scripture liberally (remember 2 Timothy 3:16 (New American Standard Bible)
16(A)All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness;) please read all of that in the context of the passage. THANKS
Speaking of crummy links–the first one could lead people to other spurious links and doesn’t have much to offer. The second one may be OK but it’s Nova after all and the third one is one video on God in different religions. Maybe educational, but certainly not what I was looking for. Most other people provided some good links.

“He was going to come and give his version of what goes on in the church but unfortunately he got arrested.” Woops.
Sorry, that was callous. He could be innocent.
This is typical stuff. You never see someone with no gold dust before, or no gold teeth before, but you see them afterward. So it just makes it look all the worse.

If you will be buying from Amazon.com and would like to support this site, please consider buying from this link. The prices are the same and you don't have to donate anything. Thank you.
Just clicking on the Westminster logo below also helps if you like to see the helpful information they have there in the left column, see sample chapters or buy anything.
Jeff, you might like to check this one out, it’s about Jericho.

They also have another on Jesus’ tomb, but I never got around to it.
I liked the one on Jericho, and it also confirmed what I read for one of my classes in 2.year in Theology about Israel and evidences for OT.
Thank you. That looks very interesting.
Day of Discovery has what you’re looking for.
Nice
Jeff,

Wow I hadn’t noticed those names yet. Snodgrass is my favorite (name).

I can’t afford any more monthly payments but I bet there are some good choices for that one.
I read the biography/prison letters by Bonhoeffer. That was really depressing.

The Millennium was AD 1859-1959.
The Wriiters onlie are:
The Peoples’ New Testament, 1891, B.W. Johnson; Restoration Movement; and:
The Millennial Harbinger, 1830-70; Alexander Campbell.
These men predicted future prophecy fulfillment until the End of Time.
Sid’s 777 Blog wordpress.com (that is me).
I have observed prophecies fulfilled in 1960, 1992, 1997, 2004, and 2006.

Sid, You’re about nine centuries short of a millennium. Looks like you got hold of some bad theology.
Stan:
You have just proved yourself a fool nationally, and possibly internationally.
70 Weeks = 490 years; 455 BC – AD 35.
7 Years (Eze 39) = 21 Years; 539-18 BC.
7 Months = 7 Years; AD 28-35.
42 Months = 1260 Years; AD 600-1860.
5 Months = 150 Years; AD 532-682.
There’s some guys called Enoch Magazine that make Christian documentaries Totally FREE and on point Biblically.
Hi Carter. You may want to be up front and just mention that you’re one of the guys that’s involved with the site. Thanks for mentioning it.

Ya, how is http://www.christiandocumentaries.com a bad link to the question: are there any good christian documentaries out there?
Carter, when I said ‘the first link’ I was referring to the comment directly about that one. The one you mention is good.
Jeff
Carter, I think you may have been responding to John directly, not me. Sorry. Just being narcissistic.
Jeff
Oh, I totally was…sorry, I probably should have made that clear.
Finger Of God
This is the YouTube link. I Love this movie!
Just as a qualifier to that type of thing.
