What kind of adventure can three young children find while playing in the forest? For Justin, Angie, and Corky, it's an unusual old house that turns out to be a time machine! In this animated cartoon series, the children, together with friendly Professor Bumble and his robot SIR, are catapulted back in time nearly 2,000 years, and the adventures begin. Trying to return his flying house to the twentieth century, the inept professor keeps setting down in the Holy Land, where the children witness Jesus' teachings firsthand. Tyndale Entertainment presents a four-volume classic collection of The Flying House video series. Each volume features two of the most popular Flying House episodes: In Another Life, the time-travelers free a man named Jairus from prison, to which he had been unjustly sentenced. The children also experience a miracle when Jairus's daughter, who had died while he was in prison, is brought back to life by Jesus. In Neighbors, Justin, Angie, and Corky get a big lesson in forgiveness and compassion, as Jesus tells them of the Good Samaritan, who helps when others turn away. Later, the kids learn why mercy is important when they meet a mean-hearted merchant who shows no mercy at all. Running time approximately 40 minutes

"Beyond their acute depiction of life in the Soviet Union, Yuri Trifonov's novellas offer an extraordinarily rich literary encounter in the tradition of great nineteenth-century Russian writing. "Another Life" is the story of Olga, a woman suddenly widowed and attempting to grasp the memory of her brilliant, erratic husband and to understand their life together. Possessed with a passion for truth, able to appreciate how the past affects the present, he could not hope to flourish in a society where intrigue and moral compromise were the norm." "A sharp, satirical portrait of an academic opportunist, "The House on the Embankment" is paradoxically laced with compassion and humor. Vadim Alexandrovich Glebov rises from shabby origins to become an apparatchik yet in so doing suffers his share of oppression - from society, from former friends, and, most significantly, from his total inability to make decisions." --Book Jacket.
