Courageous - encouraging men in family, church and community: the church campaign DVD study kit

Posted by Les Ellison  ·  Be the first to comment

Courageous is the big screen action movie with a solid faith affirming storyline that recognises the need for strong father figures in family, church community and nation.

From the makers of Fireproof – the all action drama focused on safeguarding marriage and the family, Courageous concentrates on fatherhood and the vital role of men with courage in Christ.
 
Courageous is the new police action drama that explores the vital roles of fatherhood in family, church and community that still call out men of courage in Christ.
 
Courageous Police officers Adam Mitchell, Nathan Hayes, David Thomson, and Shane Fuller are called to give their all serving and protecting the community. Risking their lives everyday the cops know there’s a common need in the no-hope gang members who roam the city streets. It’s the need of strong male lead and example – the want of a father.
 
In their tough day jobs, the officers are confident and focused. They can give their best at work, but at home they’re finding it hard to make the grade. Struggling in the good times, a sudden turn of events leaves the men adrift are left wrestling with their fears and failings.
 
The need to serve and protect is now much nearer home with a decision they have to make: stay in the comfort zone or show real courage and take up what it means to be father.
 
The new Courageous campaign kit picks up on the success of the big screen action movie to encourage and develop the vital role of men of courage in the family, church, community and nation.

What about you?
 
At Eden.co.uk you can find a truly interactive Christian community helping you find all you need to live, learn and grow your faith.
 
The presence of men in family life and in the church community reduces year on year. Experience in the workplace shows that when male involvement reaches a critically low level, men stop applying for those posts altogether.
 
·        Why do you think fewer men are coming to church, do you think they’re opting out or is there something in church life that actually discourages their participation?
·        What roles are best suited to men in a church and do you think that allowing some men only groups or activities might create an environment to encourage their involvement in the church?
