"The Discipline of Spiritual Discernment is a truly important work-one that should be required reading not only for church leaders, but for all sober-minded laypeople as well."

John MacArthur (From the Foreword)

"If you were more discerning you’d probably buy this book. If you do read this book, you will be! This book on discernment is simple, clear, well-written and well-illustrated...

Gibson's Next Movie

Apologies for not writing anything too exciting the past couple of days. I have been involved in quite a large Web project and it has kept me just a little too busy. It is going to wrap up tomorrow so hopefully I will then have some more time to do real writing.

Now to the news…

A group of Franciscan friars are petitioning Mel Gibson to make his next movie a biographical film of the life of Francis of Assisi. They have already gathered well over 10,000 names on their petition. It has been widely speculated, based on what Gibson has said, that his next movie will cover the Macabeean rebellion (a historical account that is written about in the apocryphal books of 1 & 2 Macabees). Whether Macabees or Francis of Assisi, it should be interesting to see what Gibson decides to do with the hundreds of millions of dollars given to him largely by the Protestant churches.

I was wondering what his next film was going to be. Turns out it’s another sequel to Mad Max.

no sorry simon but according to George Miller the director of the Mad Max trilogy, who is now planning the fourth in the series, he says Gibson is to old and more involved with his filmaking career. Which is crap even if it is true.

I really liked “Road Warrior”. Gibson is an enigma, no doubt about it. Can’t see him as St. Francis though.
