"To wit, the only non-Christians in our group - my daughters two 17 year old girlfriends - were sobbing through most of the movie."

I am reminded of being their age and seeing Jesus Christ Superstar (not a likely evangelistic tool) and weeping at the 40 lashes. I had grown up going to Sunday School yet had no clue of the events leading up to Christ's death. I glued alot of cut out pictures to popcicle sticks, yet I never had even heard of Herod and the only thing I knew of Pontius Pilate was his name was in the Apostle's Creed.

That was when a flame ignited in me to seek Him. Those girls hearts were weeping in hunger having caught a glimpse of the feast!

It is a relief to acknowledge the hunger, isn't it? No matter how hard it was to watch what I did to Christ, I never want to go back to starving again.
