Good video and good message. But no, it is NOT diverse enough. The characters are not of different "races" as someone else said. They are 95% Anglo. Then there are two African-Americans. I have Asians in my congregation. I have Hispanics in my congregation. Where are they in the video? Only if you are Anglo will you think this is diverse enough. I'll still use the video, but only because I have diversity in our platform.

Beautiful imagery, music AND message. I don't understand the comments about a 'patriarcal God.' I understand that relativism has overtaken society but it must not overtake the Church. The Old Testament view of God IS partriarcal. Call it as it is. Else we could end up praying: "In the name of the Ungendered God, the Procreation Thereof, and the Invisible One."

As a pastor of a diverse congregation in the South, half white and half black, the video would be better to show diversity quickly instead of so late. For many whites it may be diverse enough (from a white point of view), but if you are African-American, it lags too much in this area--like an after thought.

It is too bad the producers put such stress on the person-hood of God. We cannot use material that brings pain to members who have been hurt by people in the past, and therefore, have trouble relating to a perfect, personal God who might remind a member of a sinful, personal human. Otherwise this is great and I would use it.

My response is yes and no. I am the person God created me to be. I am not the person he intended me to be...yet.
