Discover the Eastern Hemisphere!
A journey of danger, suspense and discovery will captivate the hearts of your children as you read 24, autobiographies, works of historical fiction, and their resources that will carry you to the Eastern Hemisphere. You'll visit far-away places like India, China, Japan, Australia, Libya, Turkey and Pakistan on a your quest for understanding of the religions, cultures and customs of the people who live in this largely unreached part of the world.
Your children will be inspired by men and women who gave up everything (including their lives) to carry the gospel to this far-away region.
You will...
- Meet Gandhi and discover how this small, passionate man captivated the hearts of his countrymen through wisdom, self-sacrifice and passive resistance, which eventually led to India's independence from British rule.
- Follow the great leader, Genghis Khan, as he conquers an empire that is larger than Alexander the Great's kingdom.
- Race alongside a 1924 Olympic champion, and marvel with the crowds as he refuses to run on Sunday—even as it costs him a gold medal.
- Blaze a trail with Mary Slessor as she suffers hardship and braves the dangers of Africa in order to reach people with the gospel.
- Join Commodore Perry on his thrilling expedition to the mysterious and isolated nation of Japan in the mid-1800s.
Additionally, your children will develop a passion to pray for the world's least evangelized people through a powerful 2-hour DVD that is full of stirring cultural and spiritual insights.
