Ash Wednesday and 'The Passion'
Today is Ash Wednesday, the start of Lent. Amy Welborn provided a link to a Lenten season resource site.

After work, I went to the 4:30 PM showing of The Passion of the Christ in Old Greenbelt. I don't have a whole lot of words to describe this powerful experience. It makes more real the familiar story of what He suffered for me and you and all of us. The cruel actions of His tormenters and executioners were not uniquely those of Jews or Romans, but of sinful human beings. Which comes right back to His act of saving love depicted in the movie.
