On my plane ride to San Diego, Julianna and I sat next to a woman that really wanted to talk. I usually try to avoid eye contact and make it evident that I am only interested in reading on plane rides, but my efforts proved to be worthless with her persistence. As the three of us talked for about an hour, the subject of my job came up. She informed me that she had the perfect movie for me to show the students at All Saints, and made us watch the preview on her iPhone. It turns out that her nephew, a Baylor film student, had made a film somewhat diagnosing the culture of our time and the poor reaction that Christian's have had towards it.
By no means is this video (well, actually just the trailer) a theological work, but I found it somewhat interesting. Take a look below:
Do you think this type of movie is helpful? Unhelpful? Do you think that Christians act as if they have the answers? Should Christians act as if they don't have any of the answers? What do you think of the movie?

I think that this video would be helpful to the guys who made it, because maybe the answers they get out of people could help their faith expand in some ways.
ReplyDeleteIf Christians don't have "the answers", then they shouldn't act like they do. But if they do have any of the answers, then they shouldn't act like they have all of them, because it's never possible for anybody to have all of the answers except for God.
But what every Christian should do, whether they have any of the answers, or not, is to simply point non-Christians in the direction of Christ, and then continue to head in that direction themselves.
