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.

The movie of The Blind Side attempted to mimic the book as much as possible‚ however there were noticeable choices that the director made that changed the presentation of the movie compared to the picture that the book created.
