Praying The Movies 2
$24.00
Praying The Movies 2 brings together the ancient tradition of praise and prayer with a contemporary passion for the movies. Noted author and speaker Ed McNulty presents another collection of 31 devotionals – one a day for a month – that connect movies with the spiritual life of moviegoers. Each devotional contains passages from Scripture, an introduction to a scene from a popular film, a description of the scene, and a meditation on the themes in the scene and Scripture. Also included are questions to encourage further reflection, a suggestion for a hymn, and a brief prayer. Ideal for individual or group study, Praying The Movies 2 will bring the seemingly disparate worlds of the Bible and film together, helping readers to understand each in new ways.
Films discussed include: American Beauty, Babe, Chocolat, The Color Purple, Erin Brockovich, Fried Green Tomatoes, O Brother, Where Art Thou? Remember The Titans, Secrets and Lies, To Kill a Mockingbird, and more.
