See This Movie! Restless Heart

Tonight we saw Restless Heart, the life of Saint Augustine. It was a great movie and well worth going out of your way to see. It was not preachy or overtly evangelistic like the poorly produced 70's vintage Christian movies but definitely told a great story in a believable and compelling way. I loved the scenes when Augustine's father Patricius was converted on his deathbed. The bishop asked him if he believed in God, then baptized him in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. I was a little ticked that he didn't say the sinner's prayer but figured it was just Hollywood artistic license gone awry. (Just kidding, they didn't have the sinner's prayer back then. People were converted the old bible way back then, by baptism for the forgiveness of sins)
