Happy Monday!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I rented a movie from Netflix and I was blown away!!! I love to watch Christian/Uplifting movies. I also like movies that are thought provoking. We watched this movie called To Save a Life. This has to be the most relevant movie about our youth that I have ever seen. If you are a youth pastor, youth leader or just someone who loves youth, you must see this film AND show this film to every high school student you know(it is rated PG-13 for good reason). It is hard hitting, raw and real. I will let the film speak for itself. You can go to their website and view the trailer at www.tosavealifemovie.com.

I would also recommend the following movies;

Faith Like Potatoes - Will increase your faith, man has a radical transformation and the Lord uses him powerfully in his village.

The Ultimate Gift - Uplifting movie about the lessons in life and things that are important, young man receives a box left by his grandfather's will and he has to pass each test before going on to the next one and receive the ultimate gift. Get the tissues!

Sophie Scholl - The Final Days - Intense true story movie about a young girl in Nazi Germany who risked her life to alert the youth of Germany of the atrocities of Hitler's Germany. It won an Oscar for best Foreign Film, film is in German with English subtitles.

Letters to God - Major tearjerker about a terminally ill child who writes letters to God and the people who are impacted by him.

Secretariat - Actress Diane Lane is amazing as the owner of Big Red, the horse known as Secretariat, who won the Triple Crown. Her story of perseverance is inspiring. Horse and racing lovers, this film is for you.

Would love recommendations on any movies that you may have seen!! Happy Monday and happy viewing.
