And yet God moves in mysterious ways.
We were given tickets and decided to go. (We had not seen the first version, but I had read the book.)
Was it cheesily done? Yes. Was it good theology? In places, but in other places......
And yet, we ran into an old friend there. The last guy we would expect to pick up a Bible and read it. Turns out just the previews of the movie had sent him into the Word. He is hungry, so hungry, for a real relationship with Christ. We shared a bit of the gospel with him, continue to pray for him, and will most likely be talking to him again soon.
So even a cheesy, poorly done, even in places insulting movie may be used of God if He so chooses, to lead more of His children home.
Not a bad deal at all.
