Feedback from Leaders...
Everything Spiritual by; Rob Bell
Watching Everything Spiritual is like drinking from a fire hydrant! It is mind blowing content that stretched our understanding of where we can see God. It challenges what we view as spiritual. Our group, intellectuals and not, loved this dvd teaching and look forward to watching it again. It's the kind of teaching that will provoke conversation and invites us to think differently. Fantastic!
Financial Peace University: Dave Ramsey
We especially liked the beginning of this series, it really got our group excited! We felt there were so many applications to marriage, relationships, parenting, and life in general - so much more than just managing your finances! Although, the information shared was very eye opening!!
Laugh Your Way to a Better Marriage: Mark Gungor
The group liked the series. They found it easy to understand, remember and apply. It sparked good conversations between couples. My recommendation to future groups that do this study is that they only do I/2 DVD (40 minutes) per night and that the leader preview the series prior and prepare questions that are more appropriate for a group setting as well as take home questions for couples.
Truth Project: Del Tackett and Focus on the Family
Our group enjoyed watching the Truth Project. It sparked great conversation, although due to the intellectual content at times it took a little while to process. Every person in our group took something away from each session we watched! The only downside to this study is that each DVD is about an hour long, and there are 13 sessions that build on each other.
Another leader shared that many of the people in their group have purchased the Truth Project because there was such valuable information to both watch again and share with others!
Esther: Beth Moore
It's Tough Being a Woman is a wonderful study about the ups and downs of being a woman. In this study, Beth will make you laugh and cry as we discover how God has a destiny for each and every one of us as women. The DVD's are packed with God's wisdom while the booklet is an easy to follow study guide to bring out truths that are profound. This study is a good place to start for those who have never done a Beth Moore study and are trying one for the first time. Everyone LOVED this study!
