Millions of Christians have decided that the Bible is out of date. They’ve decided that the words of Jesus aren’t always true. The Foundations — Ken Ham’s signature DVD series based on 30 years of ministry—reveals the alarming state of Christianity today.

It was twelve years ago that Ken Ham was last filmed for a major video series. A lot has changed since then. Twelve years ago, terrorists had not yet flown planeloads of people into New York skyscrapers. The American economy was roaring. Tsunamis had not yet left millions of people asking “why?” America was not simultaneously fighting three different wars. And the president of the United States had not declared that America is no longer a Christian nation.

Today, possibly more than at any time in America’s history, a culture detached from God and willingly ignorant of His hand in creation and world events needs Jesus. But the church is not nearly as effective in reaching the lost as it was only a generation ago. There is a foundational reason.

In this hard-hitting yet often humorous new DVD series, popular Australian-born author Ken Ham uses modern events as the backdrop for the most important messages of his life. By combining his signature talks with cutting edge new graphics and current events headlines, Ham connects with viewers as never before!

DVDs included in this Foundations with Ken Ham set:

• The Relevance of Genesis
• Revealing the Unknown God (Evangelism)
• One Blood, One Race
• Always Ready (Defending the Faith)
• In Six Days
• Death the Enemy

The Relevance of Genesis
Why is Genesis so important? In this 2-part DVD Ken Ham uses news stories of recent events combined with Scripture to address today’s most pressing issues. Includes scores of photos and illustrations, plus a mini-interview that reveals his passion for helping Christians to truly understand the distressing impact of disregarding the authority of Scripture. (2 parts)

Revealing the Unknown God (Evangelism)
American culture has changed substantially, but our approach to evangelism has not. The key is to “de-Greekize” our families and our churches, beginning with ourselves! To truly reach today’s culture we have to help them understand that God’s Word is true as we spread the seed of the gospel. (2 parts)

One Blood, One Race
Understanding what happened at the Tower of Babel is key to understanding the origin of nations, “races,” prejudice, and much more! Ken discusses Charles Darwin’s destructive teaching regarding skin color, facial features, etc. On the lighter side, this DVD uses Ken’s comical perspective on poodles to teach on natural selection and speciation. (2 parts)

Always Ready (Defending the Faith)
1 Peter 3:15 says that we must always be ready to defend the truth of the Bible. But does the idea of being “ready” make your heart beat fast with fear? In these two segments, Ken Ham shares proven ideas and the basics of apologetics to affirm the truth of the Bible in our modern age. This presentation will embolden you to share your faith with others! (2 parts)

In Six Days
What difference does it make today whether the “days” of Genesis 1 were real 24-hour days or millions of years? Here, Ken Ham clears up today’s common misunderstandings in the debate about the “six days” of Creation. Also discover why some pastors and educators avoid this topic and say we really can’t know the truth. (2 parts)

Death the Enemy
Some ministers tell their congregations that death is our friend. But God designed a perfect world—no death, no pain. Adam’s sin brought death and suffering. Our world is now in need of restoration, and Ken shares the story of the agonizing death of his brother, a pastor and loving father, to illustrate that death is our enemy, and one day it will be vanquished! (2 parts)

“Direct my thoughts, words and work, wash away my sins in the immaculate blood of the Lamb, and purge my heart by thy holy spirit, from the dross of my natural corruption, that I may with more freedom of mind and liberty of will serve thee, the ever living God, in righteousness and holiness this day, and all the days of my life.”

Have you ever wondered how George Washington was able to live such an amazing life?  Have you wondered how he stayed so humble with all of the accolades of men that were thrown at him?  How it seems like everything he touched, flourished?  Well, this book gives us a glimpse into the answer: before there were any of Washington’s victories or Washington’s accomplishments, there were Washington’s Prayers.

This 88 page e-book gives us a brief glimpse into George Washington’s most private life — his spiritual life and his prayer life. We know, from the testimony of those close to him, that he spent much time in his prayer closet each day.  We know also that Washington used the Book of Common Prayer in his devotion time.  Now we can see in Washington’s Prayers some prayers that are attributed to Washington himself.

This e-book is a reprint of the 1907 work by W. Herbert Burk.  Mr. Burk gives us an excellent summary of Washington’s spiritual life, which sets the stage for the highlight of the book — eight prayers of George Washington.

There is an ongoing debate about whether these prayers are actually in the handwriting of George Washington or not.  Handwriting experts who have studied the pages are divided with their opinions as to the authenticity of the documents.  Since the prayers are very similar to ones found in the Book of Common Prayer that Washington was known to use and likely would have copied into a prayer journal, and since the handwritten pages were found among Mount Vernon’s documents, it is easy to see why many believe these to be in the handwriting of George Washington himself.  Whether these pages were written by Washington or not, they are certainly consistent with the humble and spiritual nature of our first president.

The eight prayers cover 24 pages of the book, and then Mr. Burk provides a transcript of the prayers.  In the pdf e-book, you could easily print these prayers for use in your personal devotion time.

We are proud to provide the reprint of W. Herbert Burk’s 1907 classic, Washington’s Prayers.  Get your copy here today!
