Here’s a link to a flyer that the Diocese of Pittsburgh has issued in relation to the film

Interesting. I think a little more balance of spirituality and theology might possibly have been in order – it’s a little heavy on the latter, and what I’m gathering is that for most people, this film evokes a deeply spiritual response, one that draws them closer to Christ. Picking up on that, inviting people to greater intimacy with Christ through personal prayer, Reconciliation and Eucharist and imitation, to me, would be a natural centerpiece of such a document.

But, hey, who am I? So very glad they’ve done what they have. It’s a good thing.

Hat tip, reader TZ
