A bit of a diversion from the standard fare to bring you this important advertisement. If you get a chance, see this movie when it's released. The Walters are longtime family friends, especially on my wife's side. I took some of my first theology courses from Jim at John Brown University in Siloam Springs, Arkansas. Jim married us in 1977 and buried my mom in 2007. Lynda hosted my wife's wedding shower and was present at both our marriage and my mom's funeral. One of Jim and Lynda's sons is an Anglican priest.
Lynda went to be with the Beloved in 2012. She spent many long years suffering from MS before she died, and I saw some of that up close and personal when we would visit family in Arkansas. Words would fail if I tried to convey, according to my limited perception, anything about how Jim and Lynda suffered but also how great God's grace was through it. That's why you need to see this movie -- and have it shown at your church.
