For a limited time, you can get a free DVD of Convergence, an interview series I host designed to stimulate conversations for small groups. One of the closest resemblances the modern church has to the church in Acts are small groups that meet in homes. It’s an honor to help bring life to a community that has been thriving now for centuries.
In the series, I interview leading scholars and thinkers about topics ranging from marriage to false idols to spiritual practices. Basically, you stick the DVD in, let it play and after about fifteen minutes you’ve got plenty to talk about.
I’ve been asked to do a series like this before, but I never felt like I fit. I’m not one to look at a camera and teach. But given the chance to sit down with a guy whose written a marriage book and ask him “when’s the last time you thought about divorcing your wife?” is something different. Convergence gave me, and our guests, the chance to be open and honest and engage in very real conversations about where people live. Hopefully, these are the kinds of conversations you have in your small groups.
Here’s a preview of my interview with Phyllis Tickle. On this DVD, the former religion editor at Publishers Weekly talks about the importance of sharing our stories with each other:
So far, we’ve interviewed Dan Allendar, Tremper Longman, Phyllis Tickle, Lauren Winner, Randy Alcorn, Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend. And we’ve only just begun. You can order your free sampler here.
