Sigh. It's only Thursday. I want it to be Saturday.
I want to go see The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry for the third time. LOL! I've gone the past two Saturdays and am hopeful to make it a third. The first two times I watched, I watched for the pure enjoyment of it. This time around, I want to watch to analyze the story and why it strikes such a chord for me - and learn how I can apply that to my own writing.
I read somewhere on the internet that since the movie's release it has resulted in about 500 professions of faith. I really do believe the Lord is using this movie to reach people. And it can reach the believer and the unbeliever alike.
Now if I can just get Thursday and Friday out of the way...
Have a great weekend, everyone!

The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry
I just saw the best movie tonight! A new Christiano film entitled "The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry."
WOOHOO!!!! It was awesome and I am so stoked to have a GREAT movie experience for a change!
Rich & Dave Christiano of Five and Two Pictures also created and produced the great film "Time Changer" a few years back, which was my first exposure to their work.
I stumbled upon news of the film by accident - only because when I opened my internet this morning, it opened on a brief article on Gavin MacLeod, who is in this film. So I looked it up to see if it was playing in a theater near me and immediately emailed a couple of my friends to see if they wanted to go. One of them was available so off we went tonight to see it.
Aw man! I loved it! It was so touching, with elements that you don't expect. And as usual with Five and Two Pictures, they don't flinch from the Word. All the actors were terrific. Gavin MacLeod, the child actors, and Robert Guillame (I apologize if I'm spelling his name incorrectly - you know, the actor otherwise known as Benson! 8-)
I can't wait to go back and see it again next Saturday with my friend who couldn't make it tonight. And then I can look forward to it releasing on video.
I urge you to check their website (http://www.sperrymovie.com/) for theaters near you. I pray it is playing in a theater near you. If so, I urge you to go see it. You will be glad that you did.
What a great way to end my week!
