40 Days of Biblical & Cultural Insight Into The Black Panther Movie
No one can argue that the Black Panther movie is not a groundbreaking and transformative film. A Marvel movie fan, Lisa Jenkins realized the significance of the Black Panther movie. . Although released during the Lenten season, 40 Days of Biblical Cultural Insight into the Black Panther Movie is perfect for any season of contemplation and meditation. With each day’s devotion there is a scripture verse, a reflection and a short prayer. This devotional book offers a journey that allows the reader to expand the mind spiritually and socially. Many have quoted Shakespeare who once said that there are sermons in stones. If so, then there is certainly a transformative word of empowerment from God in this contemporary and relevant film.
