In Close Encounters you'll discover who Jesus is by looking at the stories of five people who met him.
Part of the Jesus and You series.
Jesus had many close encounters with ordinary people, turning around their lives in totally unexpected ways. Close Encounters helps us discover for ourselves who Jesus is by looking at the stories of five people who met him.
This straightforward, four-session course will bring the teaching of Jesus to a broad range of people, including those who normally have difficulty accessing the Christian message.
This Starter Pack contains all you will need for running every session. You receive one DVD and three Handbooks. These resources will help you unpack some heart-warming true stories about Jesus, and introduce ordinary people to who Jesus is, why he came, and the difference he can make in our lives.

They're brilliant
I use them in our church, and always find them really helpful for people.
If The Good Book Co or Pete & Lizzie ever read this, all I'd ask is they keep doing more! They are such helpful ways of teaching people about Jesus, and how to read the Bible for themselves.
Excellent clear evangelistic DVD and handbooks. We have used this course in a large gathering of 40+ people in a community space and with two people in their homes. It works in any setting that a DVD can be played. I particularly love the way you read through the passage a number of times in each study. In this way people do the hard work of thinking through a passage and then can clearly see the points being made in the DVD.
This material has been well received by those who are more mature in their faith and those who have little or no background in the bible. I will continue to use this material and hope that more titles become available.
