Athletes of the Spirit Video (from the '80's)

[MiniCorpsConscript]

Does anyone know where I can get a copy of it?

[GrouchoMarxJr]

I think there's a copy of it buried at the fountain of living waters...

[Zshot]

I used to have a copy of aos on BETA . It's either buried i a box somewhere or thrown out (I don't remember).

I knew 2 of the ladies that danced in that production Connie M*ll*ry and Sara B*g*n. I hope both are doing well.

[polar bear]

I have some. You can PM me.

I just liked the music.

[MiniCorpsConscript]

awesome

[GarthP2000]

If you actually do find it, try putting it up on YouTube.

..... then again, maybe not.

[Bolshevik]

I used to have the coloring book for Athletes.

What you really should look for is the devil spirit outfits. We should all go to a Sunday Teaching Service as devil spirits. But which type would be most appropriate?

[Oakspear]

why do you want it?

[MiniCorpsConscript]

I'm gonna show it at the sundance film festival :)

[TheInvisibleDan]

AOS is destined to become a "cult classic".

Wasn't there actually a drive at the time to get AOS shown on public access channels?

Sensual and devilish?

[johniam]

...or spritely and alluring?

what were the other categories? I forget...Stately and powerful....There was a gloom and doom one, too.

Sensual and Alluring

Sprightly and Devious

Stately and Powerful

Animalistic and Vicious

After that I'm not sure...

Sadistic and Masochistic

__________ and gloomy

Note: If you want to dress up as a "Five Star General" (you know, Daimon), the main requirement is more fringe on your sleeves. Personally, I've always thought fringe was devilish, but this production confirmed it.

[Lori]

Yeah, the frillies never did anything for me, either...

Thanks, Shortfuse.

[coolchef]

i also bought a few coloring books

that was the only fun thing about aos

oops

loy was so cute in his leotards

double yuck!

[Bolshevik]

What about his 80s shorts?

That would inappropriate at a service.

[nandon]

heavy and gloomy

I've got one right here in front of me~

Say's on the jacket:

"God's Word regarding every believer

as an athlete in the spiritual competition,

uniquely illustrated via narration, dance, and music.

with

The Reverend Mr. L. Craig Martindale

The Way International Dance Company

and

The Way International Orchestra"

&

"Presented in honor and recognition of

The Teacher, Dr. Victor Paul Wierwille,

who taught us and showed us

the "athlete of the spirit." "

How about a Cafe Get-together...special 'brownies', yummy drinks... watching The Spritual Competition together...

[doojable]

Only if we can play it all in reverse!

[Twinky]

It seemed a great video at the time. When I watched a clip of it a few months ago I was appalled and embarrassed - that was good and instructive :unsure: ???

...I rewarded LCM the way he rewarded so many - chucked the video on the fire.

But I could root around for some ashes if anyone is interested?

Twinky , what a good laugh!!! ... I recall being EXTREAMLY embarrassed the first time seeing it!!!! In a PUBLIC MOVIE THEATRE.... oh my GOD!!!! Couldn't 'they' at least have warned us how ridiculous this was going to be BEFORE we invited friends ?!?!?!?! The 'promo spiel' we were told to give..... gack!!!

Now it's just plain funny~

[hiway29]

You think you're embarrassed? I was one of the guys who animated the pulsating 'blob', that was supposed to be the 'adversary'.

[Twinky]

Condolences, Hiway.

I'm sure God won't hold your lava lamp against you...

Safari:

I was showing someone the sort of thing I had been into.

I wasn't fully healed at the time. The look on his face...

I gave him the privilege of consigning the tape. He understood the significance.

[dmiller]

Lava lamp????
