The Samson Movie


There are several great movies in theaters now. The girls wanted to see the new Samson movie put out by Pure Flix.  It's not the Cecil B. DeMille epic scale but it is leaps and bounds above what Hollywood is putting out as entertainment.  

The movie is the story of the biblical strong man from the Book of Judges.  It's a nice visual reenactment of the familiar story. The movie is a respectful and heartfelt portrayal of a story whose power is undimmed over the millennia. I found some humor that the mother of the man of strength is the Bionic Woman! You've got to love the irony! 

For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets— who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, were made strong out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight. Hebrews 11:32-34
