Chuck Swindoll has long been one of my favorite speakers and authors. He has a gift for presenting things in such a way that you have many “aha” moments concerning God’s Word. Therefore, I was excited to see what this DVD. It was excellent. I watched it with my grandchildren ages 6 years to 13 years. We all enjoyed it, even the 13 year old!
Selfishness and unkindness is a problem among children that only biblical teaching can cure. This DVD did an excellent job of showing the effects these character flaws have on our relationship with others and our own attitudes.
The 1st story was about forgiveness. As the story unfolds, children learn about not only how to forgive, but why it is important. I was very pleased to see it also brought to light now we cannot take up offenses for others. We are not given the grace to handle what is not ours to deal with. Many problems between children come from taking on the hurts and anger of others as their own.
The 2nd story deals with working together. Children are naturally selfish and want the biggest and best for themselves. Looking out for “number one” often takes precedence over working as a team to succeed.
I thought the DVD did an excellent job of teaching children these biblical principles in a way they can understand and apply. The stories were entertaining and the characters engaging. I plan to share this with the young ones at our church. An excellent DVD!
I received a complimentary copy of this DVD from Tyndale House Publishing in exchange for my honest review. I am not required to write a positive review.
