Posted: September 27, 2008 in Faith, Future, Inspiration, Movies, Obedience, Peter, Trials and Testing, TrustLast night we watched Facing the Giants. Tonya told us we needed to watch it. Early in the movie I sent her a txt, “So, you think I’m a loser.” (I was just kidding). This was an extremely inspiring movie.
