Real Royal Words – Gospel Through the Lens of “The King’s Speech”
The Richardsons and Grace Community announce “Real Royal Words: Eternal Love Through the Lens of the King’s Speech”
The academy award winning film, The King’s Speech, captured the imaginations of many. It continues to warm hearts today. The film is, at its heart, a moving tale of the debilitating effects of love deprivation (as seen in King George VI) and how they are overcome by love in action (as experienced in his speech therapist, Lionel Logue).
At its heart the Christian Gospel is about a love so great that it breaks the chains binding us to our past and freeing us to become the person we were originally created to be. It is a moving tale of the debilitating effects of love deprivation (as seen in us, especially in our inability to love God and neighbor well) and how they are overcome by love in action (as experienced in God coming to us in Jesus).
The King‘s Speech, regardless of its timeless beauty, is fleeting. Regardless, the film can help us access and experience Real Royal Words that communicate a King’s speech that changes us, not just for a moment but eternally.
Join us in our home, 3272 Lynwood Drive, for three Wednesday nights beginning August 15th from 7:30 to 9:00 pm. We will enjoy coffee, dessert, fellowship and hearing afresh the love of our Maker. In the end we will be better equipped to love our spouse, children, friends and neighbors!
To RSVP e-mail me back at johnrichardson@ancientfuturechurch.org or call me at 205-807-4907.
PS We do not have room for childcare in our home but we will gladly run the series again in September if only one member of a couple can make it this time around.

Really looking forward to sharing this with others. I’ll be there and praying for the Lord of the Harvest to bring some who are open and searching. Blessings, Happy

I wish we could get the high speed rail link between Bhm and Atl so we could make it.
