The Book of Eli

I didn't really know or hear much about this movie when it came out other than it was a post-apocalypse film with Denzel Washington as a drifter. I imagined it as a Mad Max kind of film, which it kind of is, which is films I don't really care for, but this film is awesome. I've watched it twice now and about to watch it a third with my mom and step-dad coming over today for Father's Day. I think anyone Christian should watch it because Jen and I repeatedly told people about it and totally inspired us to read our Bible's more. It's seriously THAT good! Without giving too much of the film away, if you are Christian or not, this focuses a lot of faith and how we are not in control of circumstances which arise. Think of Mark's teaching on how God "drives our cars" and not us. We're simply along for the ride. I'm willingly letting ANYONE borrow this movie that wants to. This movie just shows how powerful and mighty God truly is.
