...there was some kind of connection between the capacity to love and the capacity to love *running*.

We don't love Jesus enough. If you go to church, you know He loves you, because you hear it all the time. But do we love Him? I know I don't tell Him enough. As part of my personal relationship with Jesus, when I get up in the morning, I tell Him, "I need you to know I love you.” And, forgiveness the heart and soul of the movie: forgiving at all costs. It's hard for Christians, whether we're working in the film business, or living in the Third Reich, but that's why we're Christian. Our Lord has told us to pray "... forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us...” We may feel this is hard, but how we feel has nothing to do with it. What is important is obedience; we must obey Christ's command. Is following Christ's command easy? No. But it is the way of the great. View quote
