            CAROL STREAM, Ill. –Joel C. Rosenberg’s New York Times Nonfiction Bestseller, Inside the Revolution (Tyndale), will release as a thought-provoking documentary on DVD on September 11, 2009.  A trailer is now available for preview at www.insidetherevolution.org. While traveling throughout the Middle East conducting research for Inside the Revolution,Rosenberg captured on camera hours of insightful interviews with leaders and officials from this volatile region.  The DVD documentary also titled “Inside the Revolution” is produced by Rosenberg in conjunction with Solomon Productions of Albuquerque, New Mexico, and is distributed by Tyndale House Publishers–the same team who created Rosenberg’s previously successful documentary “Epicenter.” In addition, Tyndale will release a companion study guide to both theInside the Revolution book and film.
                Shot in Israel, Iraq, Turkey, Morocco, the UK and Washington, DC, “Inside the Revolution, includes  interviews with:

• Former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
• Former CIA Director Porter Goss
• Former undersecretary of defense intelligence Lt.-Gen (ret.) Jerry Boykin,
• Ahmed Abbadi, Morocco’s former director of Islamic Affairs
• Middle Eastern government officials, church leaders and many more

Rosenberg dramatically paints the picture that there are three simultaneous revolutions happening in the Middle East.  The Jihadists capture the headlines, but Rosenberg makes the case that there are two additional powerful movements in the region that hold the potential to change not only the area but the world forever.  Rosenberg calls these three factions: The Radicals, The Reformers and The Revivalists.
                “Inside the Revolution” revisits the Iranian Revolution 30 years ago and takes a hard look at how the Carter administration completely underestimated this game-changing event. Rosenberg warns that our current government leaders are in danger of once again misjudging the fanatical ideology of the Iranian government.  Recent protests over election fraud in Iran fuel further uncertainty about the unpredictable regime.  
                “We are at the most dangerous stage of the Iranian Revolution at this moment,” says Rosenberg. 
                Viewers will not only walk away with a clearer understanding of the history and people which have shaped the current Middle East, but also they will experience the revival taking place in the region.  According to Rosenberg, over the last few decades more Muslims have converted from Islam to Christianity than any other time in history. 
                Shot in high definition, the “Inside the Revolution” DVD is 90 minutes in length, plus additional bonus interview footage.  This voyage inside the Islamic world is ideal for personal viewing or with church or community groups. Inside the Revolution offers a challenging perspective on the forces that are battling to dominate the Middle East and change the world.
                The Inside the Revolution Companion Study Guideoffers more than 100 study questions, helpful excerpts and scripture references, and a workbook format with additional space for discussion notes. In this companion piece to the best-selling book and DVD, Rosenberg takes readers  Inside the Revolution and answers the most pressing questions about Radical Islam and God’s work in the Muslim world.
                Released in March 2009, the hardcover edition ofInside the Revolution spent 8 weeks on the New York Timeshardcover Nonfiction Bestseller List and also appeared on bestseller lists for USA Today, Publishers Weekly, Wall Street Journal, and Christian Booksellers Association. Rosenberg has authored five novels and two non-fiction bestsellers with nearly 2 million copies in print.
