Revitalize Your Church

I took Luke and Wes to see the movie, Up , earlier this week. It was a wonderful film, with a powerful message. Two thumbs up!! I agree with Greg Boyd assessment: The most brilliant and entertaining aspect of this superb movie is the profound life-messages it delivers and the powerful way it delivers them. The “great adventure” you’re yearning for is the life you’re living right now, not the one you dreamed of living. You must let go of old adventures in order to embark on new ones. It’s the “boring” things in life that often matter most. Life always moves forward and if you hang too long to the past you’re dying.

On Friday night, we're showing the movie, Fireproof , at our church. The movie is just finishing up its theater run -- but not out yet to the public on dvd. (I believe it releases the end of January) So -- we have a golden opportunity to bless the people of our community! The film has not been shown within an hour's drive of Hayward. I'm fairly certain a lot of people are going to take advantage of our "free date night" (complete with popcorn, soda pop, and child care.) This is a powerful movie about marriage and faith. A guaranteed "marriage building" experience for the couples who see it.
