Thanks for sharing Robin. As someone who’s familiar with Living Sent I do see the value of it and all the organic questions/conversations it brings to the table. On the note of using videos as discipleship resources, they can definitely work but only as a supplementary material, not the end-all-be-all. This year we’re seeing a lot of success leveraging study videos from the Augustine Institute, as shown by the number of people (students and non-students) learning about the faith in our local church being more than double as much as last year, with it only continuing to increase every week as people bring non-believer friends and family along. Those videos, when done right, do spark questions, especially when accompanied by the questions and Scripture that come alongside those. Another resource we use is CCO Faith Study series, very similar to Living Sent.

CCO's faith studies were one of the resources I had in mind. They're fantastic!
