Blue Like Jazz @ Kentucky Theater THIS Weekend

Just in case you haven’t been following the story of Blue Like Jazz the movie here’s a synopsis. Blue Like Jazz“ is a best selling book by Donald Miller, one of my favorite authors. He was approached by Steve Taylor to make a movie out of the book. They ran into a problem financing the film until two guys stepped up and started a Kickstarter campaign to finance the film and 4,495 people stepped up to help produce the film. I was one of those people. While I missed the screening in Louisville back in March I know that the film is not your typical Christian film and that you should be encouraged to take a skeptic or seeker to see it in hopes of beginning a conversation about faith. It opens at Kentucky Theater Friday, April 27th. Go see it! I’m looking at Sunday afternoon, what about you?

Here’s the trailer once again just in case you missed it the last time.

The Blue Like Jazz Miss

So, Dad and I made our way to Shelby County yesterday. That wasn’t our destination. Tinseltown Theaters in Louisville was our destination. Blue Like Jazz the movie was our destination. Instead we got to watch break lights for over an hour in Shelby County. Oh well, I guess I’ll have to wait like the rest of you to see it on April 13th.

Blue Like Jazz Coming to a Theater Near You

The book is one of my top 25 books of all time, and I credit it with challenging me to look at my faith through different lenses often. Some, or maybe just one, think the book had no chance of making a good movie, but as an associate producer of the film I think it has the capability of reaching a brand new audience with Jesus. With the death of Steve Jobs and his best selling biography putting Reed College on the map the timing of this film has a twinge of divine timing.

I’m taking Dad to a screening tomorrow in Louisville. I’ll let you know if it lives up to any expectations.
