TEXT FROM THE FRONT COVER OF THE seasons DVD
Long ago in a land across the great waters, our ancient father had a dream.
In his dream the Great Spirit came to our father and carried him away on wings of fire.
The Spirit told our father he would lead him to a new land—
A place of bounty, a promised land—
For father had walked in truth and in light in all seasons.

So begins the legend.
It is the story of the seasons of a people:
Seasons of faith and prosperity, pride and war, forgiveness, and rebirth;
Seasons known to all people, in all nations, from the beginning of time.
We invite you to journey with us through this timeless legend.
It is our story.
It is your story.
