The Book Of Eli

Who has seen the movie?  I'll try not to ruin it for you if you have not seen it.  Basic plot: most of the world has been wiped out, guy has vision to take his book west, he's been walking 30 years, this is the end of his trip.

Things I liked: It made me think, is really what the world would be like if people tried to eliminate God?  All Bibles were destroyed and evil rules.  Kinda sounds like the world we live in already.  A world that needs God.

Eli quotes Psalm 23 to a girl who has never heard of the Bible and she is in awe.  Shouldn't that be our every day reaction to scripture? 

What I admire about Eli is that he had been walking for 30 years!  That is commitment.  He didn't stop when the road got rough.  Or after a few months.  He just kept going by faith.  Wow!

What I didn't like: So it was a Hollywood movie.  Honestly, when the earth is completely burned and dead is when Jesus will come again and bring His kingdom to earth.  How great will that day be!

Anyways that's just an overview.  What did you think?

LINKS

I feel like such a tech geek since I figured out how to modify the blog template and add links.  I have added a few of my favorites:
  • Athletes In Action: One of my favorite Christian organizations.  Athletics is a universal language and what a great platform to share faith and fun.
  • Every Student: Have questions about God?  This site has the answers.
  • God Squad: Another good Christian resource with Bible studies etc.
  • Krazy Coupon Lady: Not a Christian site, but good not the less.  I'm not completely Krazy, but don't we all like to save money?  That is why I like this site.
So what are your favorite sites?  Please share!

A new begining

Wow I feel so high tech!  I just merged my blogs from gradschool and undergrad and well starting to blog again.  What's the blog gonna be about?  Me of course and interesting information I find or stories.  God has been doing so much in my life lately I feel inclined to share.  I will probably throw out some fitness advice and a recipe or 2.  All thinks that I love.

Enjoy!
