DVD - “In The Beginning: The Story of Creation” (New Superbook Series)
Note: We're mentioning this video because its widely available and purports to teach the story of "Creation," however, it's mostly about "the Fall" and you may want to check it's theological point of view before showing it in your church.
Overview:
When Chris disobeys his father by sneaking into the Quantum lab to look at the Professor’s latest invention, he has an accident that almost destroys the top-secret work-in-progress. Chris is mortified and doesn’t know what he’ll say to his father. SUPERBOOK intervenes and takes our three heroes on a journey, first to witness Lucifer’s fall and transformation into Satan during a blistering heavenly battle. The to the garden of Eden to meet Adam & Eve. Lesson: Learn obedience, as there are consequences to your actions. (Animated - approx. 28 mins)
Rough breakdown (I skimmed through, didn't watch it thoroughly):
00:00 - 01:33 Creation overview
01:34 - 02:56 Theme Song
02:57 - 05:50 Chris disobeys his father storyline
05:51 - 11:14 Heaven - angle battle between Michael & Lucifer (based on Rev. 12:7-9?)
11:15 - 21:45 Garden of Eden - Adam & Eve's story
[exception: 13:28 - 13:55 Lucifer reveals his plans] and [15:10-15:11 Lucifer shape shifts]
21:46 - 21:59 Lucifer again says, "his reign on earth starts now".
21:60 - 23.24 closes with Chris using what he learned in their travels.
Note: very scary Lucifer! Depending on how your church looks at the devil, you may want to skip those areas, especially not for younger children.
