 In the larger venue, a live talk supported by Introducing God multimedia + power point presentation works best. In the smaller setting, use the DVD version, this will give freedom to guests to disagree more openly with the speaker.
DVD/Video group version
This could be conducted using a TV in a home lounge room setting or on a bigger screen at a local restaurant or golf club (if the pastors prefer not to do the talks themselves).
A program of the evening might look like this:
|
7 for 7:15
|
Arrive. |
|
7:25
|
Welcome and multimedia segment. |
|
7:30
|
Dinner. |
|
7:55
|
Interview with someone who has come into relationship with God as an adult. |
|
8:00
|
Talk on DVD. |
|
8:30
|
Discussion group. |
|
9:30
|
Evening formally ends (some stay around to chat). |

We provide a full talk script for each of the talks. We imagine it would take an average pastor 2-3 hours to familiarise themselves with the script and to personalise some illustrations (which are, in the script, already marked in a different colour).
There is a PowerPoint presentation that the pastor can use. Participants would be given individual discussion booklets.
We have found that our guests feel much freer and safer to disagree with the video presenter in discussion (and to say what they actually think) than if the speaker was actually present in the room.
Personal DVD/Video and CD versions
People have been watching the DVD with friends and then having talks afterwards. Watching the video leaves the friend feeling much freer to verbally disagree with the presenter in the discussion.
