Now, hopefully you've already heard of this movie. If you haven't and you're reading this blog go see it. You know those stories you heard in children's church about the really cool missionaries? The ones where church is held in a secret room in the basement, or angels show up to protect a village. Yeah, those stories. This movie is like those. They've taken the amazing story of Steve Saint (I mean could he have a better name?) and his (and his father's) work with the native people of Equador. The movie simply is amazing. It share the gospel of Christ and the theme of the movie is centered around the love of Christ, but it's not overty "Christian". I half expected Billy Graham to come on the screne at the end and tell everyone to pray with him. But he didn't. It's just the story speaking for itself. The perpectives of the missionaries as well as that of the natives is given. It's simply amazing. The amazing thing I find is that movie come out in the year that "Broke Back Mountain" will likely win best picture. There's something odd about that to me. Anyways, if you get a chance check it out. It really is that good. And stick around for the credits cause there's an interview with the real guy that is quite funny.
