Freedom Within (La Liberte)

A few weeks ago, our team had the opportunity to welcome, Hannah Booth, a fellow Grand Valley alumni, and current staff member with Jesus Film Media.  While she was here, she showed us a culturally relevant way we could initiate spiritual conversations with students by using our mobile devices.   

We've been showing this video called La Liberte (only 5 mins long and totally worth the watch!) and then asking students what their thoughts are.  So far we've had some really positive results!  My last post about the great conversation that I had while initiating with a dutch student occurred while we were using this tool!

One of the things that this video does really well is it illustrates the natural human desire to help others after we've been helped ourselves.  I often find myself telling students that, I'm here to be the guy who points the other guy in the direction of freedom, because I've been freed myself.  From my experience this seems to sit better with dutch students who are have no desire to explore Christianity for themselves.  I've really enjoyed using this new tool, and I'm sure we will be using it more in the future!
