He and his wife, Lisa, have two children. Brothers Dave and Jon are the co-authors of three books on church leadership.

The Bible study in itself is different. It is not a traditional hold your Bible and study the Scripture. The study did quote the story of the prodigal son, However, it did not give you the book of the Bible they were quoting. The prodigal son story is quoted and briefly explained throughout the five week study. There were other scriptures paraphrased but again no books of the Bible, chapter, or verse was mentioned. The only reason I knew it was Bible scripture is because I knew what they were quoting. 
   There are testimonials  from different people in each of the five week study . They talk about how they were living before they came to know Christ. There are other stories  where they share about different things that happen to them and God guiding their way. I would call this Bible study more of a testimonials than a study. With that said I believe it would  help someone you are witnessing to guide them to Jesus or a new convert may find this encouraging. The stories told start out with how bad they were living before Christ and many people need to hear God forgives all people from all walks of life no matter how bad you are.
I gave this  Bible study 3 stars for Bible study and 4 stars for testimonies.
I was given a copy of this DVD by the publisher for my honest review.

    I may pass on this one. However I may recommend it to new converts. The testimonials sound like they may help someone who is struggling with their past. Thank you Mary

    I may buy this and share it with my youth group. I think it may help them to learn more about God's forgiveness through word of mouth in the testimonials. Thank you for sharing Mary.

    I am going to buy this for a gentleman that I work with. He says he was terrible in his life before Christ and struggles daily with it. I think this may help him. Thanks

    I think I will pass on this one. I am more of a traditional grab your Bible and sit down type of Bible study. But I will keep it in mind if I run across someone who needs it.

    I too will pass on this one. You did a great review of it Mary. Thanks for letting us know that it was more testimonial than Biblical. However, I believe testimonies can speak loudly to a new Believer in Christ.

    Blessings!
