I have been mildly disappointed by the series as we have used it with our high school group, but Mark is warming up late in the game and we are mitigating with our own take on the videos afterward.

They are long, often approaching an hour. I have not seen the DVD's reviewed here, but I sensed none of the discomfort and awkwardness you referenced in the several sermons I have watched. He is very direct and natural. Again, pastoral in approach, trying to help his flock bridge the gap between themselves and Jesus through the scripture. Segments of this might be usable for those who can't afford the DVD set, but the tradeoff is that you have to take the time to select your clips, and make arrangements to get the scripture references set up. Technically, I guess you should contact mars hill to see if this usage is okay with them. I am working my way through the series and am finding it very helpful. Good reminders to bring me back to center on Jesus. If you want to see Mark presenting this material in his native habitat, you can go to the mars hill website.

I was wondering if there was any resource like this available. I'm a little bit shocked by the price though. I'd love to use something like this in my group but $400 would be hard to swing at the moment. Thanks for the review.
