I suspected‚ after reading Megan Basham’s review (below)‚ that the filmThe Blind Side would be worth seeing. So my wife and I went this weekend‚ and we were truly blindsided by a film abundantly rich in its humanity and unabashedly Christian in its underpinnings -- a modern day object lesson in Luke 10:25-37 and Matthew 25:31-47.

I have learned some things from observing our play in class and I have also learned Aristotle’s element of drama. I
