I saw a very interesting DVD this weekend titled Everything is Spiritual featuring Rob Bell, pastor of Mars Hill Bible Church near Grand Rapids, Michigan. Bell’s NOOMA videos, all of which are under 15 minutes long, are always challenging and thought-provoking. This video, which is a recording from a speaking tour made in 2004, is what happens when you give him over an hour (and a really big whiteboard).
The presentation begins with the Creation account in Genesis, but it goes far beyond that. More than anything it tackles the question, “What does it mean to be created in God’s image?”
To answer the question, Bell runs the gamut from ancient near-east religion to quantum physics, punctuated with dry humor throughout, and incredibly ends up tying it all together in the end. What has the potential to be a boring theo-scientific lecture is entertaining and enthralling from beginning to end.
I highly recommend it.
Will have to look out for this one or get it shipped in via special delivery speed cheetah post :D
Cool. I think that is faster than the US Postal Service (still using pony express, I believe).
Aye at the moment ours is called snail express services the cheetah upgrade should be coming soon, lets hope anyways!
