The hubby and I are movie buffs. Because we have turned off our satellite in favor of streaming and DVDs (too much junk on the channels and too much money for how often we watch), our littles have turned into movie buffs as well. We have been making a real effort to find movies (not cartoons) that are appropriate for the whole family- most of the time that is easier said than done.
Paul: Apostle of Christ (Sony Pictures) has changed that. It has become a family lesson. Tbomb loves it and loves asking questions. His favorite thing to do is read the Bible and discuss it- this movie is perfect for that! Koda doesn't quite follow along and gets bored, but she is only 4- however, she is learning from the discussion. This movie is definitely a winner for our family!
What an amazing movie!
Paul (Faulkner), who goes from the most infamous persecutor of Christians to Christ’s most influential apostle, is spending his last days in a dark and bleak prison cell awaiting execution by Emperor Nero. Luke(Caviezel), his friend and physician, risks his life when he ventures into Rome to visit him. Paul is under the watchful eye of Mauritius (Martinez), the prison's prefect, who seeks to understand how this broken old man can pose such a threat. But before Paul's death sentence can be enacted, Luke resolves to write another book, one that details the beginnings of "The Way" and the birth of what will come to be known as the church. Their faith challenged an empire. But their words changed the world.
