movie blurb...Polar Express



I'm reading Philip Yancey's Disappointment with God...because I am studying Job. You see a friend told me Yancey had a good take on Job. Well I'm more than half way done and Job's not been mentioned yet. But I did come across a nice line. We normally hear "I'll believe it when I see it." God shows we humans are really not like that...seeing miracles didn't solidify faith. Rather the opposite message appears in the Bible..."You have to believe it to see it." And that's how we get to the movie. Polar Express message is precisely that, told very touchingly.
