Publisher Description:
Something Needs to Change Leader Kit includes a Bible Study Book and two DVDs with eight 15- to 20-minute video teaching sessions featuring author David Platt, filmed on location in remote, unreached areas of the Himalayas. The Bible Study Leader Kit also includes codes for access to digital video downloads, valued at $200.

David Platt took a trip to the Himalayan mountains that transformed the trajectory of his life. There he was confronted with staggering physical and spiritual needs unlike any he had seen before. On leaving, Platt found himself asking fundamental questions about his life and ministry. He realized that something needed to change.

Being confronted with suffering causes us to ask questions that, if we are honest, we would rather ignore. However, if we believe the Bible, ignorance of profound human need is not an option for us. Neither is indifference. We cannot be Christians and turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to the world in need around us. If those responses become the commentary of our lives and our churches, then one fact will be abundantly clear: we were not following Jesus on our journey through this life.

What does it mean to follow Jesus in a world filled with urgent physical and spiritual need? In the Something Needs to Change Bible Study, David Platt explores that question as he takes you on a mind-wrestling, heart-wrenching trek through the Himalayas--a life-altering journey of obedience to Christ.
