THIS MONTH'S SPECIAL FEATURES A CANDLE IN THE DARK   Filmed in some of the original Bengali locations, this beautiful, award-winning film tells the dramatic story of William Carey, an English country cobbler who founded the Baptist Missionary Society and became its first missionary to India. Carey and his family suffered persecution and great personal trauma. Yet, with his extraordinary energy and commitment, he founded a college, championed girls' education, translated the Scriptures - in whole or in part - into thirty-five Asian languages, was largely instrumental in securing the abolition of suttee (widow burning) and sparked off a cultural renaissance that would transform the social fabric of a sub-continent. Written and directed by Tony Tew, 'A Candle in the Dark' tells an epic story of faithfulness and triumph over adversity. It shows how a social reformation alongside an evangelical calling impacted profoundly on a culture and a country that was to become a prized jewel in the crown of empire. It is a testimony to the best traditions of Christian missions and is suitable for teenage and adult audiences. Please direct trade orders to CLC Wholesale.

But his hand-copied Bibles were burnt by the authorities. A hundred and fifty years later, William Tyndale set out to give the Bible to ordinary folk in the common tongue - this time, from the original Greek and Hebrew. But this was illegal and he fled to Europe pursued by agents of Henry VIII. Nevertheless, his translation was mass-produced on the newly invented printing presses and smuggled into England. Eventually, betrayed by a friend, he was arrested, tried and executed. His eloquent translation was a priceless gift to all English speaking peoples and a fitting memorial to his courage and genius. An award-winning dramatic film with a distinguished cast led by Roger Rees as William Tyndale, Keith Baron as Henry VIII, Oona Kirsch as Anne Boleyn, Willoughby Goddard as Cardinal Wolsey and Bernard Archard as Sir Thomas More. A Grenville production with Channel Four, directed by Tony Tew. 'A gripping tale, beautifully told' (Daily Mail) A 26-minute version is available with an introduction and links by Dr Ken Curtis of the Christian History Institute.
