Saw the passion in theater - glad I did.

We want to go see fireproof, but the nearest theater that is carrying it is 40 min away. We will likely see it next week.

Finally, I ran across the Passion posted on you tube & watched it.
Even knowing what I know, it still was hard to see.
I found myself wanting to scream out, "stop hurting him!" yet I knew it was in the plan of God.

Very moving, while bringing to our understanding that I am tremendously thankful for what he did for me!
I do not deserve it.

I am also teaching tomorrow on Easter & what God is bringing back to me is that while he sacrificed for me, what are we willing to sacrifice for his Kingdom?

We saw it in the theatre when they had the first showing, and then we showed it at church. I don't think anyone could watch it and not be in tears.

Amen!

If anyone doubts that they are loved by God, then the Cross should settle that!:thumbsup

I haven't seen the movie yet even though I bought the video over a year ago. I know it will be devastating to watch. I'll need a whole box of tissues and a couple of days to recover!! I'm serious.

It is tremendously moving depiction of the suffering of Christ.

We have shown it at our church twice.

My wife has not watched it either Miz...and she insists she won't.

I wasn't going to watch it. I'm always weary of denominational slants in movies like this(sounds silly, I know)and the fact that Mel Gibson directed it made me want to see it less for some reason.

But I was working out some guitar parts to a music video that used portions of the movie and it was pretty gripping. I watched the whole movie on Youtube and one of these days I'll think I'm going to buy it.

I have never seen The Passion. I don't think I want to.

I have bought a copy of the DVD twice and each time gave it away without watching it.

One of our daughters-in-law saw it in a theater with a group from the church where her parents go (in Texas). Our daughter-in-law said there were parts she couldn't watch. She just covered her eyes.
