Bluefish TV Crew Returns from LA to Film Bible study

A few weeks back, our team returned from Los Angeles to film their fourth major video project with Erwin McManus , based off his ever-popular book Uprising: A Revolution of the Soul.

The weekend of the shoot was perfect. LA’s weather was flawless and our team had a blast shooting the beautiful scenery and vast terrain surrounding them. The prime location for the video series was Griffith Park in the Hollywood hills.

Our crew set up their cameras overlooking the expansive Hollywood reservoir. Erwin reviewed his notes and in no time, the cameras were rolling. In a simple yet profound way, Erwin challenges young adults to give their life away by tapping into the talents and gifts God has given them. He states, “We are magnetized to a world filled with opportunities and often paralyzed by the inherent responsibilities.” His charismatic teaching style inspires this generation to change their ordinary life into one with extraordinary passion.

After a long day of work, all the footage was complete. It was hard for our team to pull away from sunny LA and Erwin McManus; however they were anxious to return to their offices and edit the footage. They packed their bags and headed back to Dallas.

This Bible study series filmed in LA with Erwin McManus will be called Uprising: a 6-session video-driven Bible study and will release Sept. 1, 2008. It will include a leader’s guide, workbook, 6 video sessions, and the book itself. Check out our current DVD resources with Erwin McManus: Impact, Choices, Dreams and Advance.

Uprising will take you on the most important quest of your life – the quest for character.”- John C. Maxwell - Founder, The INJOY Group

“I am Erwin McManus' newest fan. His book challenged me to clarify and rethink word concepts such as integrity, gratefulness and service. He has a gift for connecting and contrasting words providing clarity and incite. I was compelled to re examine and re commit to basic beliefs that had been left to atrophy.” – Tim Shearer, reader
