Ya know, after a week-plus of capturing video from Joel's travels up north, I'm kinda looking for a good stretch of time to get back to writing a few thousand words per post. Who knows, maybe even go on a Video Fast (not sure about that one, though). But the work day picks up steam about this time of year, so I'm not quite ready to make that promise. About another week-plus of video-centric blogging and I'll probably return to normal thereafter.
Or, whatever passes for normal.
One little bonus video clip I've been meaning to post since the DVD came out, was a scene from the movie Evan Almighty. For a Christian perspective, the movie's not all that bad - at least on par with George Burns' multiple "Oh God!" movies (which seems to be on the path to a remake in 2008 ... ugh!). From a comedic perspective, the flick was a moderate letdown for us Steve Carell fans. Not a bad movie, just nothing to write home about.
But this little clip of the movie deserves a shout-out. Watching it in the theater, I was immediately reminded of a sermon Joel had given some time before on how God usually will give you the opportunity to grow in an area rather than just wave a magic wand and make you rid of whatever trait we need work on. That, and it's also an excellent reminder on what a great deity Morgan Freeman portrays on the big screen. Well ... a little smaller here. Anyways, enjoy:
