I asked my friend Gordon about this one time. I’ve seen Michael Caine star in some pretty bad films. Most good/great actors usually are selective with their body of work. Then I will check the director and/or writer and see if I liked their previous body of work. Although I will occasionally make an exception like I did today. My cut-off line is usually 80% or higher for. Rotten Tomatoes takes a slew of reviews and gives them an average rating. Rotten Tomatoes is great but you have to take them with a grain of salt. Since I have seen so many movies I am quite selective on what I see. Well it worked obviously because look at where I am now…praise God. You can’t get enough prayer when you are in crisis mode. I was also quite hooked on calling 1800 prayer type of lines. Oh yeah, God spoke to me through those too, because for a couple of years ago I was passionate about the non-fiction “Christian” books reading several. That is what greatly assisted me in getting out of the mire of a few years ago. I love reading non-fiction, self-help books. (Jennifer is not a great fiction reader eith…Look a butterfly….” Non-fiction is another story.
I don’t think I have the patience to sit through a fiction book. (bonus points if you can guess the titles). I think you can count them on both hands and 20% of those were written by Alexander Dumas. But please don’t ask me how many fiction books I’ve read. I love going to movies, did I say that already? I estimate I’ve probably seen over 15,000 in my lifetime.
Cowboys and aliens rotten tomatoes movie#
So I was watching a movie today, Cowboys and Aliens. To be honest he speaks to me all the time because I have learned to listen, but I feel his presence most when I either watch movies or listen to sermons from Joel Osteen or Steve Madsen. That could be nature, athletics, music, etc… Well I am very passionate about movies and that is where he really speaks to me. His theory was that God speaks to us most in whatever mode are most passionate about.
I was reading Wild at Heart by John Eldredge a few years back. Going to the movies is one of my most favorite things to do in the world.
