July: Barneys Goes to the Movies

This July, Barneys is going to the movies! We will be exploring themes from some of the world's most-watched films, discovering how God's story interacts with the stories told on the screen, and how as Christians we can engage with the world of cinema.

Jul 18 | Invictus - The power to forgive

Jul 11 | Up In The Air - Is your life up in the air?

Jul 4 | Minority Report - You can choose?

Jun 27 | Wall-E - The most irrational love

This is the message of Matthew: there is a King, and he has come. He has come just as God promised, God in man, Lord and baby, worshipped and vilified. He has come to save; he has come to forgive; he has come to rule; he will come to judge.

Therefore, for everyone on earth - every woman and man; mother, father, child, sibling; student, home-maker, professional, tradesperson - for everyone, there is only one issue. The King is the Issue.

This is the message of Matthew.
