Paul & I went to see the movie Amazing Grace and were very blessed! We can highly recommend this movie. It's about William Wilberforce, a godly man who abolished the slave trade in England. His life is truly provoking and inspiring. He loved the Lord passionately and served Him wholeheartedly, giving his life to the calling the Lord had for him. He struggled with serious health issues and endured intense political opposition. His wife was a match for him in every way, providing the encouragement and support he needed to heed the call of God on his life. What a great example for us!
John Piper has an audiobiography online that's great, and I hear there's a couple biographies which we will seek to read. Also, Focus on the Family has done a dramatization of his life (their series are always excellent).
Go see the movie!! It's wonderful!!
Paul & I thought the actor for William looked like Bob Kauflin! :)

Peggy,
I saw the movie and don't think he looked anything like me! But it was still a great movie, despite the differences in appearance...
Hope you all are enjoying the grace of our Savior each day!
Lawrence just asked today what I wanted to do w/ him when we get through this "tunnel" (meaning the hardship of our season right now). I think seeing this movie would be a great thing to do.
And, I am really going to try to get pictures of Bella up on our blog soon..like within the week. We don't have a digital but borrow Heather's to post pics. on our blog..so, I'm waiting until we can get our schedules to line up to do a photo shoot. :)
Thanks for your prayers; we are getting through each day by God's grace and are amazed by His provision.
I don't think he sang anywhere near as good as Bob does.
He may have been a little more good looking than Bob though.
I imagine Mrs. Kauflin disagrees.
