Hello, Elegant Ones
We pray that you had a blessed holiday. Easter is the pinnacle of our Christian faith. To fully understand the events that led up to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, my hubby and I also study the Jewish customs of the Sedar and Passover. 
During Holy Week, we reflect on what the resurrection means and how essential it is to our faith. Without it, there would be no faith, and our beliefs would be in vain. Our retrospect is a similar experience as musical legend Andrea Bocelli. Bocelli and his wife journeyed through the Italian countryside while on horseback, talking with other musical superstars about their faith and how that has carried them through the trials of their lives. This moving story was captured in the recent film THE JOURNEY. You can watch the trailer here:
With a limited time in theaters, THE JOURNEY was only shown during Holy Week. Be on the look for it coming to streaming platforms soon.

Hello, Elegant Ones
While at church yesterday, we celebrated Palm Sunday and the beginning of Holy Week, the most important week of our Christian Faith. Throughout the week, my hubby and I will meditate on and remember the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We will share what it means to each of us to have a Savior who died for us and how that connects us to our loving Father.
The death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of our faith and the basis of how the life we that live. However, it is essential to remember that when we study the Bible, we find countless people in the Old Testament who are the foundations of our faith. Analyzing their characteristics teaches us how to apply these principles to our lives.
We need to study Abraham and Sarah from the Old Testament to understand faith and what it means to trust God fully. The new movie, HIS ONLY SON, examines the life of Abraham and Sarah and how they waited for God to give them a son. However, God’s second test is at the heart of this movie. This test would determine Abraham’s love for his son and, ultimately, for God. Watch this trailer for the film.
The movie has deeply interpreted the story found in Genesis. It is important to read and study the scriptures to understand the story and put everything within context.

Hello, Elegant Ones
Italy is a beauty to behold. My hubby and I traveled there last March and plan to return soon. This Easter season, I have the opportunity to go back through THE JOURNEY, a music special from Andrea Bocelli. The movie chronicles Bocelli as he travels with his wife on horseback for a sacred pilgrimage of hope, thankfulness, and gratitude. Hearing Andrea Bocelli and other artists featured, such as Michael W. Smith, Tori Kelly, Tauren Wells, and TAYA, share their testimonies of perseverance and God walking with them all the way makes this movie inspiring.

The great music performances of the artist mentioned, and others, across the majestic locations, really brought joyous tears to my eyes.

You will be mesmerized by the beauty of THE JOURNEY. Experience the inner awe of the music, the Italian landscape, conversations that make you think, and the reality of hope, faith, and love.
Andrea Bocelli commenting on his hope for you when you see THE JOURNEY
“My wish is that movie can offer an invitation to fully live and recognize our daily miracles.”
“We journeyed by horse for over 300 kilometers (186.4 miles) along a path that was not always easy to travel, but absolutely beautiful, made of meadows and forests; sacred places filled with lasting testimonies of faith, full of art of incredible beauty, and views in front of which one can’t but ponder about creation and the miraculous work of our Heavenly Father.”
This is a beautiful movie that the whole family will enjoy, so make sure you support it and see it. We need more movies that uplift and inspire us to realize what matters in life. Life is not about things; it is about relationships.
Tori Kelly, Andrea Bocelli, and the Solevoci Gospel Choir

THE JOURNEY has a limited theater engagement, beginning April 2nd and continuing through April 9th (Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday).

“Music speaks the language of the soul, penetrating into the past and resonating into the future, unearthing pain and tenderness and sorrow and joy, reminding us of our infinite fragility and extraordinary strength, reigniting our dreams and passions once again to remind us of who we are meant to be.”―

Hello, Elegant Ones!
Angel Studios, who brought you THE CHOSEN, is releasing a new film, HIS ONLY SON. For the first time in a feature film, the interconnected relationships of Abraham, Sarah, and Isaac are brought to life in a way that has never been seen before. There is emotion, doubt, depression, and faith. While the movie is based on the story found in the book of Genesis, it also includes a broad interpretation of the scriptures to develop the movie’s plot further. To fully understand the story within the context of the film, we recommend reading Genesis for yourself. You will see Sarah in a way you have never seen before. HIS ONLY SON is about believing in what the Lord has revealed to you, no matter how long it takes. For more on the movie, watch its trailer here.

Greetings, Elegant Ones!
We are less than a week away from the start of spring. But the way the temperatures have been, it has felt like spring for almost a month.
Do not judge, but my hubby and I finished taking down most of our Christmas decorations over the weekend. I usually keep a hint of the Christmas or winter season by keeping up a tree or a light.
It’s winter, but the warm temps have sprouted up the daffodils a little earlier than normal. Would you believe it was a warm Sunday when I had to run in the house from two bees who were too much of the aroma of my perfume? I was looking forward to some snow because we have not gotten much in our part of the country. I have known it to snow in April, and we even saw some flurries today. So I am not giving up hope for one good snowfall in the season.
Now is the time to start enjoying the spring tubers that are going to bud later. Getting ideas about what you would like to plan later this year or what dream landscape plans you have in mind.
What outdoor projects are you looking forward to this spring?
I am teaming up with Katherine from Katherines Corner and my other blogging friends to offer this Spring 2023 Giveaway. The winner will receive $100. See the details below!
