HBO: Hard as Nails

Hey, um ... Monday night. That'd be tonight. There's an interesting documentary on HBO in the evening (7pm Texas Tme). Hard as Nails is about Justin Fatica, a rather unique Catholic missionary to the streets. Watch the video to get a better flavor of what that entails. It certainly strikes me as a little curious. I mean, I don't think I'm about to take up a prayer while someone slams a chair against my back. There's a little video snippet of the video here, here, and here (the last one, I'm not going to claim as entirely work-safe - you can use your judgment by the title of the video) if you want to sneak a peek.

It's definitely something different. At least for me. I've seen (and once or twice, been a part of) a number of different and strange ministry efforts trying to reach the target audience. It seems like this documentary will definitely play up the angle that old folks think Justin is weird and that young folks - to some degree or another - kinda get it. Watch with an open mind, I guess. I'm kinda iffy for making it home by the time this is on, so the repeat times are below:

Debut: Monday 7pm
Repeats: Wednesday 11pm (HBO-2); Thursday 1:15pm (HBO); Saturday 2pm (HBO); Sunday 8:30pm (HBO2), Tues. night 12:30am ~technically Wed.~ (HBO) ... among others. Check here for complete schedule.
