Forrest Gump

Top 10: Movies

One of the most powerful scenes in Forrest Gump is Lt. Dan's showdown with God. But most of us don't think fighting with God is okay. How does the story of Jacob's wrestling with God teach us to engage God even with our anger, doubts and fears?

Star Wars. Avatar. Up. When a story resonates with so many people it becomes a blockbuster, we should ask, "Why? What is it about this film that resonates with us?" People of faith can gain a window into desires of our culture, and we can discover how the Spirit is at work, that we might join in!

The future can be a scary thing – especially because it doesn’t come with a roadmap. But when God calls us, we rarely get all the details. How do we move forward faithfully when we don’t know where we’re going? Advent invites us to anticipate well, to look to our fathers and mothers as they longed for God’s rescue. Their stories teach us how to hope well and move forward faithfully.

What is God calling you to?
