Jesus Revolution

We went to the movies! We watched “Jesus Revolution “. We both thought it was a good movie.

There were a couple things that resinated with me. First, even though we can do great things with and for God, we are still people…still fallible. We need to always check ourselves over pride.

The second thing was something that the minister’s wife said in her quiet way.

“Sin is loud. Truth is quiet”. This is really a simple yet profound statement. Satan is always trying to distract us with things that are flashy or dilemmas to trip us up but, if we be still and listen. The truth will come quietly.

If you think about it, the distractions of this world that lead us down the wrong road are loud and in your face. It pays to look for the quiet.

If you’d like to see the trailer for this movie. I have included a link.

Movie Night

Tonight we went and saw the movie, “A Man Called Otto”. Leonard is usually quite critical of movies…well, actually he is quite critical of a lot of things. Maybe that’s why we liked the main character.

Tom Hanks, Truman Hanks, Mariana Trevino and the whole cast, did an amazing job in this movie. Leonard stated a few times what a good movie it was.

If you get a chance to see this movie. I would recommend it. There is one thing that I am disappointed by though. Hollywood often throws sex,profanity,violence, etc. where it wouldn’t change the story line if it wasn’t added. This movie had a transgender character which seemed to be just thrown in for no apparent reason. It seemed out of place to me.

The Lucky Ones were lucky enough to see this movie.
