SPIRITUAL POINT OF VIEW
(continued from the visual review)

A very creative, simple and delightfully entertaining movie. There is no better way to change your life than through the use of story. We all live by the stories we carry around in our heads. These internal stories determine our life course. Wanna change your life? Simply change your story! And that is the message in this film. I like how Jewish poet Muriel Rukeyser puts it: “The universe is made of stories, not atoms.”

When asked about the deeper deeper things in life, Jesus told stories!

Fact: Stories have been shared in every culture and in every land as a means of entertainment, education, preservation of culture and in order to instill moral values.

Question: What stories do you let govern your life?
