DVD Reviews of Nooma / Rob Bell - Bullhorn
DVD Review: Bullhorn -- a small group leader's review...
Summary: 4 Stars
Bullhorn is the last Nooma my small group will be doing until at least April. We are taking a break from the Noomas to do the Crown Ministries financial study. (I already miss the Noomas.)
Bullhorn led to a very interesting conversation.
In some ways I think one of the biggest seductions in American Christianity--besides the temptation to become complacent in our vast wealth and prosperity--is to become an "issue-driven" person. Politicians of both stripes have prostituted the gospel in the name of values and morality. To be driven by one single point of behavior misses the entire point of God coming to be with us and calling us to be his.
We came up against some of this in conversation.
Before I get into the conversation we had, let me say this: I have yet to find anyone, outside of the whack-job radio host who made a response video to Bullhorn, who really believes that the Bullhorn guy's tactics are legitimate in the context of the 21st century. Yet, when you start asking people what they are doing (both personally and in the larger sphere of things) to change the negative perception that Christianity now carries, people get clearly uncomfortable.
And to some extent, it is understandable that some would take the path of argument rather than action.
It is the path of least resistance.
So...in our conversation we talked through some of these things as a group. And, as I expected, some brought up some "issues" that mean a lot to them.
Again--it is easier to take a stand for a nebulous issue than to follow Christ with your entire life. And I think that is a temptation for some even in my group. And I know these guys: they are trying to give their lives to follow God.
All in all, I felt Bullhorn was very useful as a small group tool. It exposed some areas where people might be more concerned with issues that have been sold to them as important by false shepherds than with living out and expressing the love of Christ. This was not an easy conversation.
My hope for this conversation going forward is that we will be able to "throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles." And that each of us will "run with perseverance the race marked out for us."
I love my guys. They need the freedom that only the unconditional love and leading of Christ brings.
For those of you who are small group leaders: I recommend Bullhorn very highly. Just be ready when it comes time to talk through it.
Description of Nooma / Rob Bell - Bullhorn
God loves everyone, so a Christian should, too. In fact, Jesus said that the most important thing in life is to love God with everything we've got and love others the same way. But it's not always easy to love everyone around us, is it? Sometimes we strongly disagree with other people's political views, religious beliefs, behaviors or something else, and it makes it hard to love them when we feel like we're right and they're very wrong. But Jesus doesn't separate loving God and loving others. So maybe that best way for us to show our love for God is actually by loving other people no matter how hard it sometimes is. Maybe it's the only way. What is a Noomaź? It's not a book or a cassette tape... and it's not a CD or a two-hour movie. It's a new series of short films, between 10 and 14 minutes long, about God and our lives. Since its limited online release in November 2002, Noomas have had an incredible impact on millions of people. Rob Bell, a leading pastor and breakthrough communicator in the Christian community, uses the experiences of our lives to illustrate the fullness of life through Jesus... tackling issues like forgiveness, discipleship, and unconditional love. This new series is appropriate for personal and small group settings, congregational meetings, and much more. Each Nooma includes a 32-page discussion guide with relevant questions and biblical references to encourage meaningful discussion.Bestsellers in DVD
