Joyful Noise
Went today and saw the Dolly Parton/Queen Latifa movie "Joyful Noise." Anybody here that has seen the movie, what are your thoughts about the childrens choir that sings and the little boy singing lead speaking in tongues? I'm going to try to post the video from Youtube of the song. The part I'm referring to is shortly after the 3 minute mark. Just wondering others feelings on this,if anyone here has seen the movie....

Re: Joyful Noise
Did not see the movie. I heard that on the audio. What is your question really?
Was the movie worth watching? A local Pastor's wife said they were going to watch it last week. I thought I might watch it sometime...

Re: Joyful Noise
I watched it a few week ago. It's a good movie. The tongues surpised me. I don't know if it was scripted. It's possible that the choirs were worshiping God. The movie is good for something out of Hollywood.

Re: Joyful Noise
I agree with Houston, the tongue part did surprise me. Some of the others with me were upset and felt it was "sacreligous" or disrespectful, but I'm not sure if it was or if that was more the feelings of "no one is right but us" conditioning that has been ingrained through the years, the skepticism toward those who don't fit our pattern?

Will,
They may have felt that it was scripted.

Re: Joyful Noise
I saw the movie. The storyline is pretty predictable. But the music was GREAT!
As far as the little boy speaking in tongues: I'm not sure anyone else in the theater even noticed it when I went. I didn't hear a single comment made about it. I know that the ladies who went with me didn't notice at all. I guess they just thought it was part of the script?? I think it stuck out to me because of my background. But maybe if you didn't come from our kind of history, you wouldn't even notice. Or at least think much of it. For us, there is something very sacred about the act of speaking in tongues. For the general population, they don't even understand it, so how can they be expected to understand that the holiness associated?

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
