Movies and ministry? What's the story?
Talking Pictures
examines the power of movies in our culture and explores effective ways in
which we can use any movie as a way to start conversations about our
Christian faith. With its casual, relaxed style, Talking Pictures is
an enjoyable and creative approach to evangelism for people of all ages.
Movies are everywhere - at the theater, at home, on
our computers, even in our pockets! Our culture's fascination with the power
of movies brings us together in a shared experience. But did you ever think
that watching the latest action-adventure flick with a friend could provide
a truly unique opportunity to witness about your Christian faith?
In Talking Pictures, Jacob Youmans takes us on a journey to the
movies through the lens of ministry. He examines the ways in which we can
see God at work in virtually any movie, and shows us practical and
compelling ways to connect the power of movies to the Gospel message. Just
imagine - you don't have to travel all the way to Africa to go on a mission
trip! Opportunities for evangelism can be as close as the local cineplex.
Dr. Jacob Youmans, a dynamic conference speaker , is Director of the DCE
Program at Concordia University in Austin, Texas. He is passionate about
missions and and has worked with missionaries on every continent
except Antarctica. He and his wife Christy have two daughters.
