at the movies with Bishop TD Jakes

Last week Pastor Mark and I had the privilege of being invited to a mentorship event with Bishop TD Jakes, also known as Project Gideon. I will be blogging on our experience on other posts, but I wanted to share with you “Movie Night with the Bishop!”

He rented out the Prytania Theatre; the oldest operating theatre in New Orleans dating back to 1915. Project Gideon delegates were attendees where we watched a pre-screening of his movie Jumping the Broom. As host, he served popcorn and soda and I sat right next to my hubby soaking up a date night.

Jumping the Broom is a hilarious wedding-themed comedy that depicts the collision of worlds when two families from divergent socioeconomic backgrounds are forced to spend the weekend together for a wedding on Martha’s Vineyard. – The movie was GREAT! Without giving it away; there were so many relatable points.

I think everyone should see the movie! The skin showed in the movie is nothing more than what you would see in a JC Penney's catalog, so just note that if you're judging based on previews. There are godly principles implemented through secular scenes. It's the perfect opportunity to build on the hidden messages and how we can live out Christ in our daily lives.

Pastors’ Wives, First Ladies and Women in Ministry: if you and your husbands would like to support Bishop Jakes on opening weekend May 6-8th, you can call 877-488-4258 for group sales or email SPE_Group_Sales@spe.sony.com Remember that the success of the film is all based on opening weekend; together let’s impact Hollywood.

Love you much,
Veronica
