Book Reviews of Crazy Love DVD Study Resource

Book Review: Crazy Love DVD
Summary: 5 Stars


Back in October I was in the process of reading Francis Chan's book and was blown away by its simplicity and passion. As a result of that I was "blessed" with a DVD presentation of Crazy Love and wanted to go through it with a small group before making a public evaluation. I had previewed each lesson in a marathon "viewing" session but the true test would be a group of people. So several months ago the small group my wife & I are a part of agreed to go through Crazy Love. We did things a little differently with the onset of summer and the fact that we meet every other week but it was the way it had to work. We watched two of the sessions each night in order to insure "the best bang for the buck" so to speak. We knew that soon people would begin spreading everywhere for the summer so we took the unorthodox approach we did. It worked for us. We finished the series and afterwards the group took some time to evaluate the series with me. I asked three simple questions: What were the strong points? What were the weak points? What one thing did the DVD lessons show you? Here are the evaluations:

Strong points:

* Francis' honesty, he was genuine.
* The everyday setting.
* When he talked he had something to say with practical, life-application teaching.
* Questions at the end were probing and thought-provoking.
* The length of the teaching segments-short, concise, not drawn out preaching.
* They were set up for discussion.

Weak Points:

* Lose the scooter Francis. Get a Harley. :)

One thing I learned from the DVD:

* It made me look at my life and focus on what mattered.
* It showed me how woefully inadequate I am for Jesus.
* Revealed my lukewarmness.

I think as you can see it is pretty safe to say that the small group (about 12-15 during this time) would highly recommend Crazy Love. Some bought the book as a companion but what is good is that it is not necessary to do so since the DVD series will stand alone. I was glad to see that many did buy the book and read along. Priced around $20 (depending on where you buy it) I don't believe you can go wrong. It would make a great study for your small group, especially if the group is time-crunched or teacher-challenged for now. All you need is a host, a DVD player and someone who knows how to operate it. :)

Francis wrote in his book that he wrote Crazy Love for "those who want more Jesus. It is for those who are bored with with American Christianity offers. It is for those who don't want to plateau, those who would rather die before their convictions do." (p.21) If that is your desire I would suggest buying the book and taking a group through this DVD.

Summary of Crazy Love DVD Study Resource

It's crazy, if you think about it. The God of the universe loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss. God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of do's and don'ts?it's falling in love with God.

The Crazy Love Study Resource helps you and your small group to dive deeper into God's love. A companion to the best-selling Crazy Love book, by pastor Francis Chan, this 10-week study follows a day-in-the-life of Francis in the form of ten, 10-minute segments that correspond to each chapter of Crazy Love.  These thought-provoking teachings are designed spark discussion, interaction, and practical application of the Crazy Love message with small groups, churches, youth groups, and individuals.

DVD includes:

  • Ten teaching segments with questions for small group discussion.
  • Printable Small Group Study Guide.
  • Behind-the-scenes footage and outtakes
