Run with the Fire: initial uses

St John's Seven Kings used Run with the Fire as part of a Watchnight Service and also an All-Age Service based on Olympic themes.

The Run with the Fire digital exhibition ran as a backdrop to the entire act of worship at their Watchnight Service which focused on their Text for 2012 - "Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith." (Hebrews 12. 1-2)

They then used both the More Than Gold and Run With The Fire DVDs in their All-Age Service to begin preparing the congregation for the 2012 Olympics and to explore what can be learnt from the concept of the Christian life as a race to be run. In this service clips from the Run with the Fire DVD were shown as words and images for meditative prayer.

St George's Barkingside have shown the Run with the Fire as part of OPEN, a fresh expression of church which includes a multi-media meditation in each of its sessions. On more than one occasion the Run with the Fire DVD has been their multi-media meditation of choice.
