Movies that will preach

June 16, 2009

TV/Movies

Later this summer I am going to do a movie sermon series that will search for teachable moments in movies that have come out in the last year or so.

I have been racking my brain trying to come up with teachable moments in movies I have seen this year. Thus far some ideas I have are to use some of the following.

Movies I have some idea of how to use

The Dark Knight

Wall-E

Gran Torino

Seven Pounds

Madagascar 2

Iron Man

Movies I haven’t seen but seem like they may have moments

Slumdog Millionare

Yes Man

Frost/Nixon

Do you have any suggestions of movies and or teachable moments from any of the movies I have listed. This is your chance to shape worship! I need movies that are out on video so that I can actually show a clip. I would love the help.

    I’m thinking of doing Truman Show this summer with the Youth: realizing the world we live in isn’t all there is and searching for real truth not just what is comfortable and easy. Jim Carrey is definately preachable!

    Truman Show, I forgot that one. I guess the series just got a week longer.
