 "For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

“But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the Lord had shut up her womb.  And her adversary also provoked her sore, for to make her fret, because the Lord had shut up her womb.” 

1 Samuel 1:5-6

"And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her. 

Wherefore it came to pass, when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, Because I have asked him of the LORD.” 

1 Samuel 1:19-20

“Perhaps that’s what I am to Him,” A rough, unshaped stone, longing to be molded for the great purpose He has set forth for me.” Peter, The Last Super

thelastsupper.movie

Today on the show, I'm sharing my review of the brand-new film *The Last Supper*, produced by Chris Tomlin. The movie stars Jamie Ward, James Oliver Wheatley, Robert Knepper, and James Faulkner. This thought-provoking retelling of Passion Week focuses on the Last Supper shared between Jesus and his disciples before His crucifixion. It also highlights the stark contrast between Peter's denial of Jesus and Judas' betrayal, exploring the aftermath of both actions. 

 

I hope that after you Listen Here to this review, you'll be inspired to see the film. It could serve as a great discussion starter for you and your family and friends. Consider inviting someone who does not yet know Jesus, and introduce them to the one who loves them more than anyone else!

"For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office: So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.

Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;

Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness." Romans 12:3-8
