Dr. Shane Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 The intent of this thread isn't to discuss passing laws or understanding court discisions. It is about us, as individuals and church members/leaders, discoraging behavior. We discourage all kinds of behavior without getting political - premarital sex, smoking, drinking, pornography, violent movies, etc. This is a good movie for that end. Quote: An award-winning new movie seeks to convey the "terrible truth” behind partial-birth abortion. | "A Distant Thunder,” now available on DVD, was written and directed by Jonathan Flora, a producer for Disney. His wife Deborah plays the lead role of Ann Brown. | Brown is a pro-choice attorney serving as the prosecutor in a murder case involving an unborn child. While preparing for the trial, she feels threatened by mysterious men and suffers from repeated nightmares. | At the trial, the main witness is a woman who had undergone a partial-birth abortion. | "The story is resolved in a surprise ending that makes a powerful pro-life case,” according to World magazine. >>> A DISTANT THUNDER <<< This can be purchased at Vision Video http://www.visionvideo.com/?vid=4099&k=adt More information is available at A Distant Thunder www.adistantthunder.com/main.html Quote: “We’re not going to stop this practice by changing the law. It has to be done by changing hearts and minds and often, it’s done one person at a time.” Quote: It’s also helping to save lives. Flora learned through a series of connections, that a Los Angeles college student had passed the film on to a 20-year-old woman who was considering an abortion. After viewing the film, the woman decided against it. The woman’s boyfriend, who viewed it with her said, “We can’t do this, let’s get married and have this baby,” the college student wrote to Flora. In August, Flora learned the couple are expecting a boy. Quote Pastoral Family Counselor... Find me at www.PostumCafe.com Author of Peculiar Christianity
Dr. Shane Posted February 2, 2006 Author Posted February 2, 2006 I think I will buy this movie to use with our youth group. It should generate a lot of discussion and thought about the subject. Quote Pastoral Family Counselor... Find me at www.PostumCafe.com Author of Peculiar Christianity
cricket Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Better get permission from the parents first! Quote
Dr. Shane Posted February 3, 2006 Author Posted February 3, 2006 Not only that, I will send a flier home with all the kids so their parents can read it and the kids can invite their friends. This kind of movie is a great outreach tool to bring visitors in that otherwise wouldn't be interested. Quote Pastoral Family Counselor...
