What do you think about going to see a movie for enjoyment? Not in an ungodly sort of way. But I think it is important for unbelievers to know that Christians aren't people who are trying their hardest to not enjoy life. So there are some things that I listen to, watch, etc because I simply enjoy them. Not that I am not using discernment when I do this, but what's the point in discerning something if you're not trying to do something with the glimmers of truth? It's not the job of a Christian to police the behavior of others. It's our job to attest to the truth of God. If that is through movies, music, or whatever. I am right there with you.

Have you heard of the international film movement? www.filmmovement.com I subscribe to them although I have'nt bought any movies from them yet. The library in Arizona carried most of the movies they offer now that I'm elsewhere I may order. They have very good movies that challenge you and make you think and they are not Hollywood movies. They are produced by directors worldwide. Gives a nice global perspective. Have you seen Sophie Scholl the final days? Theres also "A peck on the cheek", and the BBC has a good movie called "The Lost Prince," theres many others. Have you seen Luther? you can get it from christiancinema.com I always moniter myself by thinking what if Jesus was sitting here next to me would he waste his time on this? Some movies are a waste of time good or bad. Nice blog. I found you from a link that linked to my wordpress blog.
