Song: “Firmly I Believe and Truly” by John Henry Newman in 1865

 

“The song I would pick is actually a hymn. The words are from John Henry Newman’s poem, ‘Dream of Gerontius.’ Not only is the hymn a beautifully written profession of faith, but it speaks to a belief in the grace and mercy of God.”

 

Book: “The Imitation of Christ” by Thomas A Kempis c. 1418-1427

 

“As far as books, there are so many great ones that they cannot all be listed here! However, my current read is quickly becoming one of my ‘must read’ picks. The wisdom in this book about how to live one’s life and follow Christ is truly inspiring.”

 

Movie:  “The Jesus Revolution” by Lionsgate in 2023

 

“Recently, I saw the movie called ‘The Jesus Revolution.’ Based on true events, it recounts a time when many were looking for meaning in all the wrong places and how the power of God brought healing, hope, and true meaning. Personally, I remember the two Time Magazine covers (Is God Dead? and The Jesus Revolution) and the excitement about the rapid spread of Christianity known as the Jesus Movement. Overall, it is an uplifting story of how anything is possible for God.”
