Ash Wednesday is here, as is the 40 days of Lent, and of course, the release of the movie The Passion of The Christ. (More on the movie is here.) Matt Drudge said in his Sunday night radio show that many will be going to Midnight Mass when the movie opens early Wednesday, and I am sure many are now being moved by Mel Gibson’s film. I have yet to see it, and plan to in the coming week. Greater than a No. 1 Box Office finish, my biggest hope is that, beyond the hype and controversy, it gives movie-goers something that I feel the Bible and prayer do very well: fill people with a loving, humble and thankful heart toward how much Jesus Christ suffered for each of us before the resurrection.
