DEEPER CONNECTIONS DVD 3: The Forgiving Touch of Jesus We all carry it---guilt and shame. We've all done things we should not have done. We carry it; we think about it; it keeps us awake at night; we can't shake it; it drags us down; it keeps us from fully enjoying life. Jesus came to take away our shame, to forgive us---allowing us to move from guilt and shame to freedom and forgiveness. As we examine the guilt-laden and burdened people Jesus encountered and set free, we will begin to see that he has the same plan for us today. He longs for us to fully understand the forgiveness and freedom for which he gave his life. Our lives will be transformed as we encounter this God who loves us so much that he runs to us. With maps and pictures, outlines, key scripture verses, discussion questions, plenty of room for note taking, and a personal five-day Bible study for each session, this participant's guide will help you get the most out of The Life of Jesus, both in your group and in applying what you learn to your life. TAKE A DEEPER LOOK The Deeper Connections series is unique. Unlike any other Bible study available, this visually stunning DVD series is written and taught by biblical experts---six professors with specialized areas of knowledge. Don't let the word deeper scare you. These engaging and accessible studies are for everyone who wants to deepen their understanding of God's Word and apply it more faithfully and effectively. In fact, a full one-third of each study is centered on modern application of Jesus' life and teachings. Hosted by Margaret Feinberg, who introduces each session from Israel, and filmed in locations as diverse as the Rocky Mountains, the Arizona desert, downtown Chicago, and Little Rock, Arkansas, each volume consists of six fascinating sessions. Each session is taught by a different teacher and emphasizes three components: 1. Historical and cultural background 2. An engaging, close look at the biblical text and its meaning 3.
