Session 10 - Made in the image of God: Who are we?



MULTIMEDIA

God's Chisel

YouTube Link

This is a brilliant skit about how God changes us and about how we try to resist God and keep control of things too often.

It's a really beautiful sketch.

IN THE SESSION: A good introduction or something to end the session with if you use a different introduction. Remember that it is a long video - over 9 mins.

Susan Boyle's first appearence on Britain's got Talent 2009

[This video cannot be embeded, so you'll have to watch it on the main YouTube site]

YouTube Link

This has since entered into legend as a great moment in the history of British television. When Susan Boyle came out nobody took her seriously, but she blew everybody away with her amazing voice.

IN THE SESSION: A good video to make the point that we all have gifts and talents and that we shouldn't cast people aside on first appearences.

Lamb on a String

YouTube Link

This is a short video using puppets which tells the story of the creation, the fall of man, and the redemption through Christ in a really nice and amusing way.

This is a good video for this session as it introduces the idea of living in harmony and love with God. To be a Christian is to remember that God created us, that Jesus died for us and that we are called to live in love and harmony with him.

This video could also work for a number of other sessions, such as session 2, session 3, session 4, session 6, session 7, session 15, session 19 and session 37. Yes, it's quite versitile!

IN THE SESSION: A great introduction, or to reinforce the points above later on.

IDENTITY

YouTube Link

A great video about how Christ transforms us and heals us.

It is quite deep in many ways this video and may need a bit of unpacking, but it's very good.

IN THE SESSION: This video makes the point that Christ heals us and forgives us. If we are carrying round things that are hurting us or weighing us down, then we can bring them to God who can lighten our burden.

Greatness

YouTube Link

This is a short video which just hads words on screen set to music, but nonetheless it's very powerful.

The video has quotes from various people and ends with some of the words of Pope Benedict, challenging us to think about and to recognise who we are.

IN THE SESSION: An ideal introduction
