Habitudes: Images That Form Leadership Habits & Attitudes.
These are great little books that give illustrations to help explain concepts and truths of wisdom.

Here's one of the habitude books and the description:
The art of engaging communication- More robust than the other Habitudes, this new book is filled with sixteen communication principles and images, to be read, discussed and applied as a team. Each chapter contains discussion questions as well as personal application and practical suggestions for you to use to develop your communication. In the "Habitudes of an Effective Communicator" you will learn: How to captivate even young audiences with your message. How to walk listeners through the mental "seasons" of a presentation. How to feel poised from start to finish during your delivery. How to get your point across in a matter of minutes. How to engage people at the heart level and foster life-change. How to craft the stages of a message which will prepare listeners to act. How to motivate listeners to "own" your message.

America's Godly Heritage
This is a DVD that blew my mind about our country and how it was founded. There is quote after quote from our founding fathers. This is a great resource, especially right now when it seems there is a huge need for Christians to engage in politics.

Here's the description of the DVD.
Discover the Founders' beliefs on the role of Biblical principles in government, education, and public affairs. Accompanied by color portraits and captivating scenes from America's history, this video provides an excellent overview of our Founders' design for America and prescribes step for restoring the values we have lost. David Barton is the founder of WallBuilders, an organization dedicated to presenting America's forgotten history and heroes, with an emphasis on our moral, religious, and constitutional heritage. David is author of numerous best-selling works and a national award-winning historian who brings a fresh perspective to history.

Incredible Creatures that Defy Evolution.
I am a little bias toward videos like this that talk about God's creation because I find it so fascinating. But these really are top notch in content and quality. The DVD's talk about different animals that expose how macro evolution is impossible.

Here's the description of these videos. (3 volumes)
Incredible Creatures That Defy Evolution presents powerful evidence that proves that animal designs can only be attributed to a creator. They cannot possibly be explained by evolution. This program will inspire you to look more closely at the world around you. Incredible Creatures 3 enters the fascinating world of animals to reveal sophisticated and complex designs that shake the traditional foundations of evolutionary theory. For the past 20 years, Dr. Jobe Martin has been fascinating his students as he lectures on these remarkable animals that cannot be explained by traditional evolution. Here is a preview.
