Our youth are poised to transform their world and here is a resource to ignite and inspire their passions. The film Amazing Grace chronicles the life and work of William Wilberforce and his commitment to abolishing slavery in 18th century England. Wilberforce did not act alone, but in partnership with a preacher named John Newton. Once Blind relates Newton’s incredible story of trouble, sin and God’s relentless pursuit on the life of a man who eventually would help end the slave trade.
Finally, to complete the package, is the book World Changers. Beltz and Kallestad highlight seven characteristics of world changers and illustrate each one through the work of Wilberforce and the words of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. Also included is a five-week study guide, which uses film clips, questions, biblical references and personal application.
The set provides resources for personal reading and study, small-group study and group service ideas. This is a must-have resource for any youth group!
