Description
( Video Clip #2 ) David Bruce, head of www.hollywoodjesus.com. "Imagine a Christian college that is connecting its students, and potential students, to the real world--to dialogue about Christ...but, in a way that gets the student to look at how the other person believes, rather than trying to force something on other people,...sort of understanding where they're at...then, working with them in dialogue and bring them somehow to God." "I'm hopeful for the Church...I think this context (WVE Seminar) has really helped them (student participants) to a place where they are much farther down the road than we were at their age." "I can't believe that this program, in Lincoln, Illinois, in the middle of cornfields, can possibly be so cutting edge. It's so great! It's marvelous really." David Bruce is writer, speaker, and web master for HollywoodJesus.com which has been featured on "Fox News" and in Time, the New York Times, and Christianity Today. In addition to his M.Div degree, David has always been a student of pop culture as Production/Admin for NBC-TV. radio station management, and a Pop Music magazine Publisher. David Naugle, professor and author of Worldview: The History of a Concept. "Talk about relevance and effectiveness! WorldviewEyes has put together one of the best programs in the country to communicate to today's youth the bottom line importance of a Christian worldview for personal spiritual growth and cultural transformation. Biblical answers to the deepest questions of life are at the heart of this innovative program, enabling students to know God and understand the world and their place in it on the basis of rock-solid Christian convictions. This strategic ministry also enables young people to understand the chief worldview competitors to Christian perspectives and the influence these outlooks have in contemporary culture. They also teach students how to respond to these tough challenges with the salt and light of the whole gospel. Not only this, but WorldviewEyes has packaged this material in an powerful way, using insights from Scripture and examples from popular culture in a multimedia format that is sure to connect with student audiences everywhere. We need more ministries to youth like WorldviewEyes that are addressing the deeper issues of life in helpful and effective ways. How thankful I am for vision and purpose of this significant work!"
