Synopsis
The
BASIC Collection is the complete 7-film series produced by Flannel, and featuring Francis Chan. The BASIC short film series, through Chan’s teaching, challenges us to reclaim the simple, full, and beautiful journey of the church that is described in Scripture. In these films, Chan asks the questions many are wondering about: What is church? Who is it for? Is it broken? Can it be better? “If I only had this as my guide . . . if all I had was the Bible . . . and I was to read this book and start a ‘church,’ what would it look like?” asks Francis Chan, in the BASIC series. “Would it look like the thing we have built here and all refer to as church? Or would it look radically different?” The
BASIC Collection features seven reflection guides, bonus features, and all seven films, including:
Fear God,
Follow Jesus,
Holy Spirit,
Fellowship,
Teaching,
Prayer, and
Communion.
