§ Just Walk Across the Room In Just Walk Across The Room, Bill Hybels brings personal evangelism into the twenty-first century with a natural and empowering approach modeled after Jesus himself. When Christ “walked” clear across the cosmos more than 2,000 years ago, he had no forced formulas and no memorized script; rather, he came armed only with an offer of redemption for people like us, many of whom were neck-deep in pain of their own making. This dynamic four-week experience is designed to equip and inspire your entire church to participate in that same pattern of grace-giving by taking simple walks across rooms – leaving your circles of comfort and extending hands of care, compassion, and inclusiveness to people who might need a touch of God’s love today. Just Walk Across the Room consists of a small group DVD and participant’s guide to enable people to work through the material in small, connected circles of community. The book, Just Walk Across the Room allows participants to think through the concepts individually. § Faith Under Fire Does the Christian faith stand up to scrutiny – tough scrutiny? How credible is the Bible and how seriously should you take it? Can you entrust your eternity to its message? Based on Lee Strobel’s provocative national TV program of the same name, Faith Under Fire features fascinating debates and riveting interviews with Christians, atheists, Muslims, and proponents of other faiths as they tackle today’s hottest spiritual topics. Interviewer and facilitator Lee Strobel concludes each session by offering his own perspective. Faith Under Fire 1: Faith & Jesus - Four sessions on Jesus, the resurrection, universalism, and the supernatural, Faith Under Fire 2: Faith & Facts - Four sessions on the Bible, heaven, hell, and science, Faith Under Fire 3: Tough Faith Questions - Four sessions on forgiveness, pain and suffering, the Trinity, and Islam, and Faith Under Fire 4: A New Kind of Faith - Four sessions on the relevance of Christianity. § Intersect Culture Take your group to a place…where they can see people’s needs in a new way, where they can understand their calling, and where they will learn how their faith can shape culture. This six-session DVD and corresponding curriculum helps your group envision how followers of Christ can be a counterculture for the common good. Together you’ll experience stories of believers, how their journeys unfolded, their challenges, and their breakthroughs. Also included on the DVD are insights from trusted pastors and Christian leaders such as Tim Keller, Lauren Winner, James Meeks, Brenda Salter McNeil, and Ken Fong.
