I am currently involved in 2 awesome Bible studies. I am doing The Faith Dare with Womans Bible Cafe and John Bevere’s Relentless with my small group at church. Both of these studies focus on seeking God with all of your heart, sloughing off whatever in your life gets in the way of your relationship with Him and making His Will the focus of our lives. In the midst of these studies, I have the pleasure to review the latest release from True Beauty Films, Not of This World with Lisa Chan.
This is the third devotional DVD in her True Beauty Series. I have already reviewed Be Still and Deny Yourself. Each of these messages have touched me with their strength and their simplicity. In Not of This World-Lisa focuses on how the love we have for this world, which is not our home, and the things of this world, which give us temporary satisfaction-put are focus away from God and the love He has for us. We are pilgrims, aliens we are to be in this world but not of it. Often this is easy to say but hard to execute.
James 4:4 says, “You adulterous people,don’t you know that friendship with the world means enmity against God? Therefore, anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.” I don’t want to be an enemy of God…do you? We are human and we all struggle but that fact does not give us permission to love this world more than we love God.
Lisa shares part of her story and shares how we need to re-focus on God and what He has called us to be and do in this world. Included with this DVD is a personal reflection guide to help you spend even more time reflecting on this important part of our Christian walk. If you’d like to see the DVD trailer click over to the True Beauty site.
