Is There a Lesson?
45 years of Sharing the Anabaptist Heritage Story in Europe A 90-minute documentary produced by John and Jay Ruth.
If you have ever travelled with John Ruth on a European Anabaptist Heritage tour you won’t want to miss his film entitled Is There a Lesson?. During this 90-minute documentary, relive your memories of travelling the Anabaptist heritage trail in Europe through still photography from the 1960’s through decades of film footage to video from John’s more than 60 heritage tours. The four-continent tour is linked by the twinned motifs of sword and song, emphasizing the original centrality of the Anabaptist theme of biblical nonresistance. Even if you never went on a heritage tour, this film will help to bring the stories of Anabaptist leaders to life as you virtually “visit” significant sites in The Netherlands, France, Germany and Switzerland.
