Twojedi's thread about "greater love" and the couple who are killed prior to their sealing got me reminiscing about the good old days of VCR tapes. My favorite teachers would show these church vids in lieu of a lesson.
Who remembers Cypher in the Snow? Sooooo sad. I remember the teachers showing it when a socially awkward kid in class wasnt being as included as they could have been. Usually accompanied by the "dog food wrapped as a present" story for young women. Ugh
Then The Mailbox. Talk about a guilt trip about reaching out to loved ones, especially elderly ones, who eagerly wait for our letters to arrive.
Loved Johnny Lingo and the 8 cow wife. I always aspired to be at least 8, maybe even as high ad 10. LOL.
And for a while (is it still even available) the theaters at SL Temple Square would let you request videos to watch. I liked the If you Love Em Tell Em series of commercials. The dad getting kidnapped to go camping was stellar!!
And then at some point TSCC switched it up, big reversal, an started going all gruesome with Lamb of God. Whoever thought that was uplifting needs their fingernails pulled out. Horrific and nightmare inducing.
Anyway, just strolling down memory lane. Some of the videos had an impact on my childhood.
Oh... And then in my mish we had the most outdated stuff like Mans Search for Happiness and Together Forever as fodder for investigators. Auf Deutsch. the lamest by far was a video about historical and archeological finds that prove the BoM is true. Haha.
Any idea where I can find these vids? I'd like to hold a reverse FHE with the Fam and some friends who recently resigned.
Thanks!!
