NOOMA Name | 018
Rob Bell
Approx. 12 min - Released 2007
We all compare ourselves to others. We spend our lives wondering what others think and say about us. Some of us even wish we were someone else. We question why we are the way we are and not the way we wish we could be. Some of us have let the expectations of others dictate who we've become. We act a certain way to be accepted but know that we're being untrue. But why are we so concerned with what other people think, say, or look like? What does it say about us if we are unable to accept who we are? Maybe if we really knew our true selves, we wouldn't give so much attention to other people's lives and live more in tune with the life God wants for us.

Reproducible discussion guide included
NOOMA is changing the way people experience spirituality. Not a book or a cassette tape, not a CD or a two-hour movie, they're short films on DVD, between 10 and 14 minutes long - each with a reproducible discussion guide - about God and our lives. The study materials accompanying each film encourage meaningful discussion with relevant questions and biblical references. Rob Bell, a leading pastor and breakthrough communicator in the Christian community, is featured in the first series of NOOMAs.
They're appropriate for personal and small group settings, congregational meetings, and much more. Like parables, they use the experiences of our lives to teach about the fullness of life through Jesus, tackling issues like forgiveness, discipleship, and unconditional love.
