the passion of christ
I saw the Passion the week after it came out with several folks from Mosaic Life. Some of us saw more of the movie than others (since some of us watched through fingers). my thoughts… well done movie. accurate? for the most part though there were some Hollywood moments (read moments of artistic license) like the tear drop from heaven leading to the earthquake (straight out of earthquake the movie) but in general they didn’t detract from the accurate telling of the story anti-semitic? i don’t think so the roman soldiers came of as the most stupid and savage people involved in Jesus death. many of the religious leaders did not participate in the process leading to Jesus crucifixion. most powerful outreach opportunity in years? not by a long shot. while i think followers of Jesus need to engage the conversation that come from the release of the movie, we need to remember that everyday of our lives is an opportunity to invest in other in ways that give us opportunities to hare our faith my two bits
