The event took place at our Pasadena church on March 19th and we had an fabulous time talking through what it is to establish groups that have true Christian fellowship and are holistic in nature.

DEIDOX

Learn more | Buy full length movies
Yesterday at the 2009 Equipping Day we presented 2 movies created by DEIDOX for pastors to consider using with their congregations. Presently there are two movies completed, with a 3rd due by the end of March 2009. The goal is to tell stories about what God is actively doing today. These are not fabricated. More movies may appear down the road (the hope is to do many more!).
We hope you will utilize these as well as write about them, dialog through them, share them, post them online and present them. We think they represent quality Christian filming created with honesty and excellence.

Larry Walkemeyer was recently filmed for his conference training video on "The Missional Church." The event took place at our Pasadena church on February 19th and our pastors had an excellent time talking through what it is to be "missional" in our intentions and practice. This is the second movie in a series of topics intended for pastoral coaching and discussion purposes. The next taping will feature Steve Fitch in a talk on "Small Groups."
Further, we had a very successful process with our first video, as pastors downloaded the Breaking Barriers movie to share with their boards, churches and colleagues. We hope that this will be a continuing trend, along with posts on blogs, discussion forums and websites!
New:
Given that some have downloaded these videos for the purposes of presenting it to others, we have included a higher def file that can be downloaded. These files can be problematic in the sense that they are a larger download (8.6 GB). Download times depend upon your internet connection speed.
