Discover

Lack of fit to non-Anglo participants??

We are half-way through our first "Discover" course. I love Dave's gospel passion, but there are a few things that make me feel that this course is not a good fit for our group: - Dave speaks very fast on the videos, which is hard for those whose English is not fluent. (The videos are also quite long.) - I would love the Bible to be more front and centre: there seem to be more quotes from other books/resources than from the Bible, and it's hard to distinguish the Bible passages from the rest of the quotes, as they are all in the same font and layout. (I am also keen to get participants to look up the passage in an actual physical Bible.) - Most significantly, it seems that the"Option me" format is targetting post-modern Anglo Aussies - and the people we are doing Discover with are all from non-Anglo backgrounds (Chinese, Indian, Iranian, etc). For most of these, "Option me" doesn't seem to fit, as they are unlikely to say that their highest priority is their own authentic self and self-fulfilment, but rather thing like upholding the honour of their family, obeying other religious teachers, being a good person, pleasing the ancestors, being respected, etc. I would be happy to hear others' feedback and also to talk further about this feedback if that would be helpful.
