I've been working on this project for a little over six months now. The territory is releasing a video focusing on evangelism and discipleship. For all you Salvationists out there, it is the third DVD in the series following The Mission and Our Spiritual Family.
When it fell into my lap, I had been reading a blog many of you know titled So I Go. I was completely captivated by the story, and wondered if it would be possible to somehow use the text from So I Go on this DVD project. I searched the site, found some contact information, and contact the author, Jeff Jacobson. He graciously allowed me to use five chapters of his perpetual novel to translate to the screen.
The video will be distributed one per corps (church) and has five chapters of this novel portraying Jesus as this Harley rider who blows into town and is intensely interested in you joining him on a journey. The DVD highlights ministries happening all around the Southern Territory and also doubles as a small group resource, with a five-week pdf on CD-ROM included with the DVD.
I worked in conjunction with OMM (Office of Media Ministries) on this project, and am indebted to them for the work they tirelessley performed. I hope you will all have a chance to view this project.
Also--keep your eyes open for the book So I Go Now by Jeff Jacobson to be released in May.

That looks great - I've been following 'so I go' from the begining so I am really intrigued. If there are any spares knocking about I'd love to get hold of/ buy a copy for use with our teaching at the college in London. My email is gordon[dot]cotterill[at]ntlworld[dot]com
thanks
