Creative Bible study centres around new movie
Damaris Media has created free official resources for the movie The Iron Lady, which arrives in cinemas on January 6th 2012. The material will help your church to think and talk biblically about big themes. You can see all the resources at www.damaris.org/theironlady or they can be sent to you on request.
The Iron Lady tells the compelling story of Margaret Thatcher, a woman who broke through the barriers of gender and class to be heard in a male–dominated world. It is a surprising and intimate portrait of an extraordinary and complex woman whose legacy still polarises opinion to this day. The Iron Lady also offers the chance to think more deeply about questions that affect us all. The film delves into some of life’s most challenging topics: overcoming prejudice; balancing family and career; making a mark; coping with change; celebrating achievement and dealing with regret.
The free official resources are designed to help people think through these themes, and what the Bible has to say about them. The best way to use them is to arrange a group outing to see The Iron Lady when it is released on 6th January and then meet afterwards for discussion.
The free DVD contains everything that’s needed to organise an event such as posters and invitations, recipe suggestions for food and drinks, and questions to help you get the conversation going. There are even clips from the film and special videos to remind groups of key scenes.
All the resources are available at www.damaris.org/theironlady.
