More Than a Movie: 20 Fun Specials for Your Children's Ministry
 
By Group Publishing

Your next movie night will be easy and redeeming with this extraordinary resource! More Than a Movie consists of 20 themed programs linked to mainstream movies (almost all are G-rated) like "Finding Nemo", "A Bug's Life", "Chicken Run", and "Toy Story".

Children watch the movie and then learn about key points, decisions, or turning points in the movie and how they relate to their relationship with God. Kids think about what the Bible says on Courage, Fitting In, God's Protection, Helping Others, Jealousy, Making Choices, Trust, -- 20 topics! Upbeat, fun, and easy--great for family nights, church events, summer camps or children's ministry activities. Your group will grow in their faith as they learn how to discern truth in the movies.
