The Greatest Story Ever Told

The Greatest Story Ever Told

John 21:25

Exposure: Christmas is getting closer! It will be easy to lose focus on Him as the season gets busier. Read the last verse of the Gospel of John. Gather some friends or family and watch the 1965 movie classic The Greatest Story Ever Told. It's available on DVD or online.

For me living way out on the country side it isn't that easy to get a hold of that movie that fast.... But I will definetly look for it!!

Exploration: What is your favorite part about Jesus' life?

I think it has to be the fact that even if I had been the only one, he would still have died for me. That every sin counts for the same. Murder isn't bigger than badmouthing. 
If you see it from a history point of view I have to go with His birth. That He chose to come into our world the same way we do, to been brought up like us, yet to be praised by angels, wisemen and shepards!! Need I write more??

Expression: How did the movie help your understanding of Jesus' life? How did watching that with others open up opportunities for good discussion?

As already written I didn't watch the film at this time. But I remember seeing the Passion, and talking of all the pain Christ had to endure just to get to the cross. The humiliation, the cruelty of it all...

Experience: How has your story become a part of the greatest story? Journal about the role you have played in God's big story.

I think my role is more in the hidden parts. The things that is done that no one really notices, but that are as importat. For example do the dishes after a meeting so that everything is clean for the next time. To encurrage someone with a nice word they needed to be in the front of a large group and inspire them. 


Till next time, 
God Bless
