Keys to the Kingdom- Movie


Here is another wonderful Gregory Peck movie- here he plays a preist who does wonderful work in China.

The character is one I won't forget. In fact, I have often thought back on him as I work through my own trials. He had difficult people in his life, but maintained his patience and really innocence. Always thinking the best of others, and quick to forgive, which of course impacted those around him greatly.

His best friend was an atheist and he never tried to 'bully him into heaven' but instead witnessed to him every day with his friendship.

This is available at Netflix- via mail and also Instant Watching.

I just put it in my Blockbuster que :-) Yesterday I watched Monsier Vincent - great movie but very sad. I'm going to let the dc watch it - all but a few scenes toward the end.

We are all on a journey, and this blog's reason for existence is to be a place to put mine. From humble suburbian begnnings just north of Dallas to a Catholic unschooler with a passion for faith, lifelong learning, my family and dogs, here I stand before you. Welcome to my world!
Authenticity. That would have to be my theme at present. To enjoy my family, be true to ourselves and our faith and be authentic and enthusiastic about life!

"What children need is not new and better curricula but access to more and more of the real world; plenty of time and space to think over their experiences, and to use fantasy and play to make meaning out of them; and advice, road maps, guidebooks, to make it easier for them to get where they want to go (not where we think they ought to go), and to find out what they want to find out." [from Teach Your Own by John Holt.]
