I rarely go to the movies, but a couple of Saturdays ago I went with Shona and Scot to watch the The Rescue, A National Geographic documentary that chronicles the enthralling, against-all-odds story that transfixed the world in 2018: the daring rescue of twelve boys and their coach from a flooded cave system one mile inside a mountain in Northern Thailand.

It was a beautifully filmed and enthralling story. Even though we knew the end result beforehand, we were on the edge of our seats throughout. At some points I realized I had stopped breathing. As we talked afterwards, we couldn’t but ask, “What spiritual lessons can we learn from The Rescue?”

Listen here.
