Media Fuel has produced a contemplative video called Broken. It deals with the the idea of feeling broken and empty and knowing nothing can fill us or fix us except the power and healing of God’s love and grace. It would work well for youth and young adults.

Check out this free video from Steelhouse. It is a animated short short that deals with the first commandment in which God says to have no other gods before him. It is a creative (and right now free) way to introduce the topic of idolatry or a series on the ten commandments. If you have never seen videos by Steelhouse they do cutting edge stuff and one of the more unique and original church media producers out there.

I would like to wish everyone a happy 4th of July. I hope you get a time to relax, spend time with friends and family and eat good food. But most of all I hope we all have a moment of thanking God for our freedom to worship Him.

Here’s a good video from Flashlight Films celebrating our freedom.

For the past several years, Preaching magazine has written an annual survey of sermon illustration videos available to preachers. Their lastest article was just released in the July/August edition. They highlighted 12 companies that pastors might not be familiar with. Check out the article at Preaching.com 

The folks over at Sermonspice have launched their new blog and since they are the largest distributor of sermon illustration videos it is probably worth a look. They have also a podcast over there covering all things concerning sermon videos.

And while you are over there check out their weekly review video highlighting their new and favorite videos.
