This week we celebrate both the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus as well as Passover.  I thought I might suggest some inspirational movies for you to consider this week.

These are in no order whatsoever.  This isn't a "best of" list or anything like that.  Some are classics though most are of a more recent vintage.  Some are historical while others are contemporary.  The tones of these movies range from innocent (Jonah-A VeggieTales Movie) to graphic (The Passion of the Christ).

Such a list is only the tip of the iceberg.  Looking at the list might even remind you of a totally different title you might not otherwise have thought of.  Hopefully, you'll find one title in this list for your family that best fits the holiday.
