Introductory Videos — Brief Summaries of the Immanuel Approach

Introductory Videos — Live Session Previews (Basic)
These “Preview” versions of the live ministry sessions are the ~5 min “movie trailer” versions — just glimpses of the best parts. The condensed versions of each of these sessions, included in the Live Ministry Session condensed sets, are more like Reader’s Digest versions – all of the best parts in a lot more detail, but without the more technical pieces of how we got from one “best part” to the next. The “Reader’s Digest” condensed versions, with more details regarding the best parts (people interacting with the living, tangible, wise, loving, interactive, life-giving, wonderful friendship presence of Jesus), are especially effective for introducing the Immanuel Approach to friends, colleagues, family members, etc., and they are also fun and encouraging as faith-builders. Finally, the full versions of each session include the entire session, exactly as it happened. The full versions are ideal for those who are wanting to learn to actually facilitate Immanuel Approach sessions. For example, the full versions demonstrate exactly how to establish the connection with Jesus at the beginning of the session, how to coach the recipient to keep engaging with Jesus throughout the session, and how to troubleshoot when you encounter difficulties. They also include follow-up interviews that confirm lasting, observable, dramatic positive changes. To obtain condensed and full versions of each session, see the Store page.

“Jesus is Emmanuel” video
We did not create the Jesus is Emmanuel video, but we appreciate those who did. We realize that no human actor can fully capture the way Jesus relates to us in a manner that is always contingent and fully present to us. However, we appreciate the way this video presents a relational Jesus who rejoices with those who rejoice and weeps with those who weep, and who is always always present whether we recognize him or not. It is striking to us that when we facilitate Immanuel approach sessions, people often report imagery/experiences similar to those portrayed in this video. An ongoing awareness of Jesus’ Immanuel presence, whether visual or through another sense, is the goal and gift of practicing the Immanuel approach to emotional healing and to life. This video reminds us of the truth that Jesus is always with us.
