The Hollywood Bible Study was a series taught starting in 2010 on the CBS Studios Radford Lot. Coleman Luck, Showrunner, Television Series Creator, Screenwriter and Executive Producer taught the study. He is best known for the 80's series The Equalizer, starring Edward Woodward, Gabriel's Fire starring James Earl Jones, and The Burning Zone starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Tamlyn Tomita, James Black and Michael Harris.

Coleman was also raised in the Church, went to Moody Bible Institute, worked at Moody Radio at WMBI and Christianity Today before leaving the Midwest to come to Los Angeles and pursue a career in screenwriting. He sold several feature screenplays, including a never made sequel to Escape From New York and got his break writing for a television show called Otherworld that starred Jonathan Banks.

This Bible Study series was designed for Christians who want to work in Hollywood, are working in Hollywood or just wanted to learn about Hollywood and the Bible. Coleman draws on his experience as a struggling writer, student at USC Film School and his Biblical education to teach a compelling and unique presentation.

In this study, Coleman gets into the purpose of the Christian working in Hollywood. It goes beyond just writing and producing and views the Hollywood Film Industry as a mission field. Filled with entertaining stories about Coleman's time breaking in and working, this study gets into what Christian life in Hollywood is really like. With stories of Shrunken Heads, Edward Bernays and the power of media manipulation, as well as diving into scriptures this is a different perspective. Looking at the Book of Daniel and the experience of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in Babylon under King Nebuchadnezzar, Coleman compares it to living and working in Hollywood.

The worship of self drives American culture and Hollywood and now today drives much of the Christian Church. He the gets into the Gospels of Luke and John and also shares a story about how the Executive Producer of The Equalizer, James Duff McAdams came to know Jesus as his savior during their time working together.

This is essential listening for any Christian that wants to work in the Film and Television Industry or is already working there.
