Much Ado About NOOMAs

February 16, 2008

I’ve read several blog posts about NOOMAs, and wanted to chime in for a sec.

NOOMAs are short video stories focusing on a single theme, only about 10-14 minutes long. I’ve watched two with my small group. I thought they were not stellar, and not bad, either.

NOOMAs aren’t meant to be the whole story, or a sermon, or to draw conclusions for people. They are supposed to get people talking. That’s why all of them come with a 32 page discussion guide, and packs of extra discussion guides are available.

Think of these as an extended sermon illustration. Does every sermon illustration contain the whole gospel? No. So why should these videos?

Story in any form is a way to begin conversation. It takes a person to share the gospel.

Preview clips from any episode, using links on the bottom of the NOOMA webpage, if you are so inclined.
