wretches and jabberers

Only a few moments before off to bed but AJ and I just got back from viewing Wretches and Jabberers at a screening in Iowa City with friends Tom and Adey. We are completely undone. If my life stops right now then it will have been well-lived just for seeing this film.

I have so many thoughts swirling about it but here's the most insistent:

"God chooses the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, the weak things to shame the strong, the lowly things and the despised things - and the things that are not - to nullify the things that are..."

The marginalized. The oppressed. The outcast. The wretches and the jabberers. I am humbled beyond words and want to soak it up deep into my soul...

  1. Thanks, you guys. Tom and Adey were by last night and said it was powerful for them, too. I'm going to try and see it.
