If you’re totally into movies and you look for every opportunity you can to use them in your ministry, you’ll probably start salivating over this. Note that it’s for delving deeply into the movie, not just watching it and having a brief discussion. It’s also not for finding three-minute clips to spruce up a talk. This is for planning a whole evening or all-nighter around a movie. As such, there are only 12 movies in the book, but each one has a plethora of ideas around how to bring it to life. I’m looking forward to trying it out on our group soon — a perfect winter activity, I think.
