THE LION, THE WITCH AND THE WARDROBE


And I saw a scroll in the right hand of the one who was sitting on the throne. There was writing on the inside and the outside of the scroll, and it was sealed with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel, who shouted with a loud voice: “Who is worthy to break the seals on this scroll and unroll it?” But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll and read it. Then I wept because no one could be found who was worthy to open the scroll and read it. But one of the twenty-four elders said to me, “Stop weeping! Look, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the heir to David’s throne, has conquered. He is worthy to open the scroll and break its seven seals.”

Genesis 5:1-5

“Coming to a theater near you today.”

It is not often that we have an opportunity to say that about a film and not be concerned about the content, either language or sexuality or blood and gore. “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe”, based on the novel by C.S. Lewis, will challenge you with a story of the struggle between good and evil. Let us pray that this movie will have a tremendous impact on the hearts of viewers, young and old. Hopefully we will be saying:

“Coming to a heart near you today!”
