The Trouble with Paris: Following Jesus in a World of Plastic Promises

Front Cover
T. Nelson, 2008 - Christianity - 215 pages

This DVD-based series helps people examine three different levels of reality: hyperreality-that which the media tells us we should seek; reality-the world we really live in; and God's reality-what we should ultimately be seeking. The Trouble with Paris emerged out of a series of talks that Mark Sayers had developed, originally titled "How Paris Hilton Made Me a Better Christian." This series of talks was responsible for hundreds of young adults rediscovering faith in profound ways.

The product features one DVD in a standard amaray case. The DVD includes four 20-minute video episodes full of unique animation, fast-paced teaching, and relevant subject matter. Questions are interspersed throughout the video to facilitate discussion, and the participant's guide (sold separately) serves as a companion to the DVD.
