Shorts: Vol. 2: 10 Brief Clips that will Captivate and Motivate your Youth Group
BlueFishTV, 2006, $14.95, bluefishtv.com
In our media-saturated, attention span-depleted culture, young people are at risk of becoming mindless consumers and faithless adults. Without watering down the message, BlueFishTV offers original clips that will appeal in short time to those who feed on sharp and captivating media.
Shorts has funny moments, pointless parodies (although I must admit I like the Scottish guy!), and compelling stories. Especially moving is Carrie’s and Erin’s account of their father’s death. Teaching Moments is strong throughout, exploring such topics as failure, sacrifice, death, and creation. The sounds and images that present Psalm 8 would serve as a great call to worship in a home group or a megachurch.
BlueFishTV offers an effective tool to jumpstart worship, teaching, and dialogue for any size group.
