"He mentions a survey by George Barna which indicated that the evangelistic impact of Gibson's film was negligible."<br /><br />But this is narrow-sighted on his end. First, there's no distinction between what's usually dubbed "pre-evangelism." Was that impact negligible? Second, what of the value in "reviving" one's faith? Perhaps the movie caused a sizable portion of "luke-warm" Christians to reignite their faith, they became more active in their church and their home. Perhaps they became apologists or evangelists (or both). The film would then have a "delayed" evangelistic impact.Maul P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15227129983621069565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-50030165513667497232014-02-25T04:55:49.301-05:002014-02-25T04:55:49.301-05:00From what I remember from the TV series episodes w...From what I remember from the TV series episodes with Jesus in:<br /><br />The Good- the representation of some of the dominical miracles, high production values.<br /><br />The Bad- lots of complex characters like Thomas or Nicodemus become pastiches. Jesus himself is reduced from 3D to 2 or 1D. Perpetuates a mythical (rather than Biblical) version of the Nativity. The resurrection becomes an almost ethereal event with the lighting.<br /><br />The Absurd- one can't help but notice that Jesus is a white Iberian whilst the unbelieving Pharisee archetype looks stereotypically Jewish. Paul somehow composes 1 Cor 13 extemporaneously.Thomas Keningleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01624894562826380210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-29406825864221162552014-02-25T00:03:34.481-05:002014-02-25T00:03:34.481-05:00iii) From what I've read, The Jesus Film has b...<i>iii) From what I've read, The Jesus Film has been an effective tool in foreign missions.</i><br /><br />Exactly. Also, the children's cartoon shows made in the 1980s <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0081941/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1" rel="nofollow">SuperBook</a> and <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083417/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1" rel="nofollow">The Flying House</a> seem to have sown seeds in the hearts of millions of children around the world on all (or most) of the 7 continents.
