Episode Details

“One Battle After Another” won the Academy Award for Best Picture last night, along with five other Oscars. The awards show prompted some reflections for me, which have less to do with the films themselves than with the experience of watching them. The best movies are often the most surprising, the ones with a plot twist we did not foresee, films that convey an unanticipated message that nonetheless resonates with life. The best journeys in life, similarly, occur on the paths we least expected God to call us to travel. When you pursue your Father’s purpose, your life becomes a “motion picture” in which the scenes you “film” today are part of a story you are telling the world. The key, as a wise mentor once taught me, is to stay faithful to the last word you heard from God and open to the next.
