NEW {days 17 &18} :: the movie scene that started it all

Ten years ago in a movie theater in Scottsdale, my hardened heart broke wide open as I wept tears born of gratitude.

And so this 'new' journey began.

I have hesitated to share this with you.  

It's just a movie. 

But the story is true 

and the man is real 

and what he did is a historical fact.

This scene burned itself in my memory in an instant.

When Jesus spoke these words to his mother I could almost feel him holding my weary, shame-filled face in his hands and speaking straight to my soul. If some part of your life seems beyond repair I hope this promise will convince you otherwise. 

I know it to be true...

all things new.
