NINE DAYS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD - DVD
This documentary hosted by Newt and Callista Gingrich recounts Pope John Paul II's historic nine-day trip to Poland in June of 1979, and reveals why this visit was the turning point for defeating Communism in Eastern Europe. During these nine days, Pope John Paul II reminded the Polish people that nothing - not even the seemingly all-powerful Communist state - could stand between them and God. The Pope sparked a revolution of conscience in the Polish people that led to the success of Solidarity's free-trade union movement, and ultimately the fall of the Berlin Wall and collapse of the Soviet Union. 94 minutes.
