boy a

this week we'll be talking about freeing the prisoner in our college bible study. jesus tells his followers that they need to visit those in prison, he quotes Isaiah 61 in his home town, and he gets a few disciples out of jail while joining others inside in the book of Acts.

if you are looking for a good movie to watch this week, rent "boy a." its about a young man released from prison for a crime he commited as a 10 year old. redemption is a heavy theme in the film. it wouldn't get out of my head and really posed a lot of questions we may address on thursday. if the movie wasn't so raw, we may have watched some of it.

thats all i have for now. but if you want to think about the way Jesus redeems the prisoner or formerly imprisoned, read matt 25, isaiah 61, the sermon on the mount... and watch "boy a."
