Beethoven - A modern parable

Is it me, or does it seem like modern believers will read almost anything about God... except the Bible? It seems to me that people are eager for a "quick fix" when it comes to God. Besides, who wants to muddle through the doom and gloom of the major prophets when you could pick up a snazzy title like The Purpose-Driven Life and Your Best Life Now?

We're traded knowing God for learning about God. And I think we're cheating ourselves.

That's why I wrote "Beethoven," the film posted below. What amazes me is the response I've had from people who watch it. Some get it; others find it completely befuddling. Some have even asked, "What does this have to do with God?"

I guess some folks don't like being challenged to think.

For those who do, I give you Righteous Insanity's "Beethoven."
