Philippians DVD - Matt Chandler

Fri, 15 Apr 2011 12:20:02 Z

Small Group Series by Matt Chandler. Trusted Teaching. Easy to use Study Guide. A recipe for life change. Join Matt Chandler, Teaching Pastor of The Village Church in Dallas, TX, as he walks us through this most intimate of all Paul’s letters and paints a beautiful picture of what it is to be a mature Christian.

The story begins in Philippi where Paul introduces three individuals that were all enslaved by the kind of things that we often choose over the gospel: Lydia, the Business Executive, The Little Slave Girl, and The Hard Working Jailer.

Their lives portray dysfunction and emptiness, but are totally transformed by the Gospel. True joy and Christ’s love begin to live within them, giving them a life of purpose. In fact, Paul himself was enslaved and then by God’s grace and mercy he could pen these popular and profound words: To Live is Christ and to Die is Gain. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Length - 12 x 30 minutes

Matt Chandler. Alongside his current role as lead pastor, Matt is involved in church planting efforts both locally and internationally through The Village and various strategic partnerships. Prior to accepting the pastorate at The Village, Matt had a vibrant itinerant ministry for over ten years where he spoke to hundreds of thousands of people in America and abroad about the glory of God and beauty of Jesus.

Passion City Church Resources (Louie Giglio)

Fri, 15 Apr 2011 12:19:11 Z

From acclaimed communicator and Passion Founder Louie Giglio comes a new DVD series, Passion City Church Resources. Continuing the Biblical teaching and encouragement found in his Passion Talk Series, the new Passion City Church Resources are an outpouring of the Passion City Church that meets weekly in Atlanta. This new DVD series features Louie’s multi-part messages from the church and serves as a resource for ministries worldwide.

Bless Me. Be with me. Watch over and protect me. Forgive me. Listen to the way you pray, and to the prayers of those around you, and you’ll hear these four tried and true phrases often—familiar words we’ve probably been saying over and over to God since we first learned how to pray. ReMIXED prayers embrace these four concepts, while moving towards a healthier, God-centred prayer language that saturates our thoughts and words with the phrases, “Let Me Bless You,” “Live Through Me,” and “No Matter What, Use Me.” A subtle shift based on radical truth. Potent prayers for a full life.

The 12 Words of Christmas DVD - Louie Giglio

Thu, 11 Nov 2010 12:19:51 Z

It’s the greatest story ever told. Completely unforeseen, yet long awaited was the voice of God breaking through the darkness and four hundred years of silence with the cry of a baby. And not just any baby, the gift of God. God’s people, having waited generations for their Creator to reveal Himself, never would have imagined that rescue and redemption would come in the simple, vulnerable form of a child, a baby born under the radar and into the chaos-announced by twelve words that changed history and brought hope to humanity.

That’s the message of Christmas. God with us, full of grace and truth. And no one on earth is too far from His love. No one beyond His reach. He’s at work in your life, even in the midst of the chaos, and promises to bring you through.

The Passion Talk Series features hours of compelling content from Passion Founder, Louie Giglio. The collection of talks has been experienced by millions around the world, and each talk tells a meaningful story of God’s goodness, grace & love.

Videos that start discussion: Alma

Tue, 02 Feb 2010 14:41:38 Z

Alma is a prize-winning (secular) animation by Rodrigo Blaas that is hugely compelling. And chilling. A visual metaphor of entrapment. A real discussion starter – it would be useful to show, for example, to a youth group. Or as a embedded clip within a website, asking questions.
There is so much to see and analyze within it, with spiritual parallels and warnings. You’ll need to watch it several times, in full screen. (That’s the second control from the right, in the toolbar under the video.) Link from Internet Evangelism Day.

Hansie - A True Story DVD

Tue, 22 Sep 2009 13:58:01 Z

HOW DO YOU START ANEW ONCE YOU’VE BETRAYED A NATION’S TRUST?

Hansie Cronjé became South Africa’s golden boy. As captain, he took his country’s cricket side from being seventh best in the world to the top. He was destined for greatness... but, his greatest battle was not on the fi eld... The news of his involvement with Indian bookmakers and his resulting public confession rocked the international sporting world. His unprecedented rise to glory was followed by the most horrific fall, made worse by the fact that he was an outspoken Christian.

'Hansie' explores the very human drama of a man who, after losing everything he has worked for, begins the painstaking journey back to choosing ‘life’.

'Hansie' is a film that captivates with its human drama, its action-packed sequences and its riveting match-fixing intrigue. But above all, the movie will reassure you of the ability of us all to overcome life’s difficulties with grace and dignity.

This special edition 2-disc set includes a special documentary about Hansie Cronjé featuring never-before-seen interviews with more than 60 people, plus behind-the-scenes footage, deleted scenes and bloopers.
