Our extra-Ordinary Life: A Mile in His Shoes

Romans 12:1-2

So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you. Romans 12:1-2

A Mile in His Shoes

"A Mile in His Shoes"

This movie is definitely worth your time. Whether you like using movies as "Family Movie Night", to teach a lesson, are looking for wholesome entertainment, or have boys who like sports movies - this is the movie you're looking to see.

I guess this movie was on TV originally in the fall, but we missed it. It recently released on video and I'm so glad my family had an opportunity to see it. We watched in on Thursday night and again on Friday night! My children (ages 10 & 12) only had positive things to say about the movie (including many uses of the word "cool"). You don't have to be a kid or a boy though, A Mile in His Shoes is is inspiring for all.

The following links and product description will give you a much better description than I could. From me, you just want to know that this is a great movie - we love it!

About Mile in His Shoes:

From the director of "Angels In the Outfield" comes an inspiring story about a special boy with an amazing gift, and the coach who believed. Dean Cain and Luke Schroder star in the gmc movie based on the book "The Legend of Mickey Tussler".

(From Anet again: This movie is rated PG and I am guessing it is for a scene where someone gets hit - although it is not physically shown and for some mild flirtation. I was completely comfortable watching it with my children. If you have young children, they won't "get" the story line, but there isn't anything inappropriate about the movie in my opinion.)
