Momentum at the Movies 2009: Wall-E

Jesus created parables – stories with spiritual meaning – to teach his audiences. Paul, the author of many of the letters that we now call "books" of the Bible, quoted mainstream poets and plays in his writings. Both used creative ways to teach regular people about a God who desires to know and to lead us. On that note, every year Momentum discusses some of the most popular films that have been released over the last year. We ask, "What eternal truths can we learn from these popular stories? How can these movies be used as parables that move us forward to love God, love people, and serve the world?"
