evan

We went to see Evan Almighty. Good stuff.

I especially liked recasting the story without the whole "destroy-nearly-all-the-world" bits. But I guess that's what the rainbow promise was supposed to be all about.

Favorite bit: the speech where God tells Evan's wife to act on her prayers, as co-creator. (My word, not theirs.)

This God is a kind of "almighty" that I love.

hey--Joel and I saw it last night, too! I loved the part where they ask Evan why God picked him...and he responded that God chooses all of us. Beautiful. Oh, and got to love good animal poop humor.
