Jesus the Game Changer (2 Dvds)

This is the best dvd series for life groups that we have ever done. In ten sessions it shows how Jesus has made a huge difference in every area of our society and lives.

up. The sessions were practical as in they didn't only give information but when complemented with the discussion guide really made us think as to how knowing the difference Jesus has made in each area can make a difference in our own lives and how we can reach others.

ief. Karl Faase returns as host and once again conducts interviews with prominent thinkers from around the world. Since the series is arranged thematically, it is his input and cheerful presence which bring the episodes together.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe focus is on seeing how Jesus' teaching shaped modern Western society. To achieve this the series looks first at Jesus, and then how his teaching informs several broad subjects. The subject areas feature not only Jesus' teaching but also cases studies demonstrating how this has been enacted by followers of Jesus.\r\n\r\n\r\nVisually the series is well put together. Some interviews are outdoors, others in offices and churches, while others are in seemingly abandoned buildings. I don't really understand the need for the last location but visually it works.\r\n\r\n\r\nFaase's interviews are short but speak volumes into the subject they cover. They are informative and inspiring. Given the variety of sources, he creates a strong case for the positive influence of Christianity within society. As too the case studies. These help move the series from an academic exercise to show how faith and reality collide. Read LessRead less about Jesus the Game Changer is the latest
