Christian Film Festival

We were watching the Duggar family and their show "18 Kids and Counting" this evening. There was a re-run of an episode from shortly after the littlest Duggar was born. The entire family traveled to the San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival. It was an opportunity for their family, from the littlest ones on up, to enjoy some time together in a movie theater watching films appropriate for all levels but still entertaining for everyone.

The movies that were featured look interesting. I could see a number of them appearing on our NetFlix movie queue. I am not convinced, though, our movie viewing should be restricted completely to films approved by this entity or a similar one. It is important to portray solid Christian values in film-making. Christianity encompasses more than one specific religion and sometimes the ideals of Christian living becomes more narrowly focused. Like any other area, personal discretion will still come in to play.

Here is the link to the festival I mentioned, if you are interested in checking out the recommended movies:
