Da Vinci Discussed

Although it is getting panned by critics, I am off to see The Da Vinci Code on Friday. I am going in the spirit of preperation. Below is an article about my upcoming program on the book and movie.

The Da Vinci Code opens in theatres this weekend. Just like the novel, the film is raising questions and even controversy. While Dan Brown’s work is fiction, its basis in the reality of our faith can cause many to consider their own beliefs. Whether or not you have read the book, seen the movie or intend to see it, you are invited to join Pastors John and Will for a time of learning, questions and answers.

They will cover some of the issues raised by the book and movie, including:


  • Other gospels not included in the New Testament
  • How the New Testament came to be
  • What we know about the “historical” Jesus

They will also talk about the movie itself including some factual inaccuracies and inconsistencies as well as its possible positive and negative impact on Christians and non-Christians.

The session will be held Tuesday, May 30th from 6:30-9pm. It is totally free and open to all. If possible, please let us know that you will be coming so that we may have plenty of room and materials for all. To RSVP, call the church office or e-mail Will Rice at pastorwillrice@gmail.com.
