Block Buster Series Rules
Blockbuster Series Rules: • You DO NOT have to see the movies before or after the message. • A movie doesn’t have to be overtly ‘Christian’ to contain biblical themes. We’re looking more at Jesus than Hollywood. • We won’t spoil the ending (in case you do want to see it). • We’re hoping to start a dialogue. See if you see other themes in these or other movies this summer. Play at home with friends! Great website: hollywoodjesus.com

Bible Verse

There he came to a cave, where he spent the night. But the LORD said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” Elijah replied, “I have zealously served the LORD God Almighty.

Bible Verse
Matthew 6:6 MSG
"Here's what I want you to do: Find a quiet, secluded place so you won't be tempted to role-play before God. Just be there as simply and honestly as you can manage. The focus will shift from you to God, and you will begin to sense his grace.

Bible Verse
1 Kings 19:11-12 NIV84
The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.” Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper.
Bible Verse
1 Kings 19:15-18 GWT
The lord told him, “Go back to the wilderness near Damascus, the same way you came. When you get there, anoint Hazael as king of Aram. Anoint Jehu, son of Nimshi, as king of Israel. And anoint Elisha, son of Shaphat, from Abel Meholah as prophet to take your place. If anyone escapes from Hazael’s sword, Jehu will kill him. And if anyone escapes from Jehu’s sword, Elisha will kill him. But I still have 7,000 people in Israel whose knees have not knelt to worship Baal and whose mouths have not kissed him.”
Bible Verse
2 Corinthians 4:7 NLT
We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure. This makes it clear that our great power is from God, not from ourselves.
