Another Great Movie... THE ULTIMATE GIFT

This weekend's movie date was another great experience. Our family went to see the movie, The Ultimate Gift. "Every happening, great or small, is a parable by which God speaks to us. The art of life is to get the message."
Upon his grandfather's death, the main character, Jason, is offered several gifts through his grandfather's will. The movie covers the process Jason goes through and the choices he makes whether or not to receive these life lessons. The movie looks at the gifts of: work, money, friends, learning, problems, laughter, dreams, giving, gratitude, a perfect day and love. Granted, this movie is not without fault, even so, we really enjoyed it and felt the producers did a great job of delivering the message of what is truly important in life. The spiritual lessons are subtle, but the thread is there and the movie was a refreshing change from normal Hollywood fare. Well done and very inspirational. Go see it!!
