New on DVD: Time Changer (2001, PG)

Time Changer has a core message - ethics don't count unless they're backed by the force of Christ. D. David Morin stars as a late-19th-century Bible professor named Carlisle, whose efforts to publish a book arguing that morals can be taught independent of Christ's teachings, is denounced by one Dr. Anderson (Gavin Macleod), a board member at Carlisle's seminary. Anderson, who happens to be in possession of a time machine, sends Carlisle to the year 2001, where the latter quickly discovers the pitfalls of a secular world with relative morality and no Christian standards. Time Changer has a supporting cast that includes Paul Rodriguez, Jennifer O'Neill, and Hal Linden. The film was directed by Rich Christiano.
