Back to Eden

I had an idea to write a review of the film "Back to Eden" on my blog, even before the official release. But that's way too much work and I don't feel up to a full-blown discourse right now. Besides, I'm not a film critic. I doubt the film will win any awards on the technical side of things - it's well done, but the cinematography didn't blow me away. Where this film really shines is the content. What Paul, et al, are doing is simply amazing.

As a minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ I am very pleased to see such an integration of faith and practice at work. As a gardener I am further encouraged to listen to God and watch for his hand at work in my garden, teaching me his ways. As a member of the human family, this film makes me hopeful. We can do better and this is one way forward that makes too much sense.

Go watch it. The full film is available free. Be blessed!
