Beverly Lewis- The Shunning

From the pages to your own tv screen, Michael Landon Jr. has done it again...
He's a great director and producer, he has done quite a few movies. The Love Saga by Janette Oke and Saving Sarah Cain and now The Shunning, by Beverly Lewis. And some other movies I can't name.

Last night, The Shunning premiered on tv, on The Hallmark Channel. It was a movie I was excited to see, and I'm glad I got to see it. I find the Amish quite fasinating, the way they live, how they live a very simple life. And they seem to be quite content about it too. Even through hard times...

If you havn't read or seen the movie:
All her life she has longed for the forbidden things, but will her
 dreams come at a price too dear to pay?
Why would Katie Lapp's mother, a plain and simple Amishwoman who embraces the Old Ways, hide a beautiful satin baby dress in the attic?
 
The staggering answer comes on the eve of Katie's wedding to widower Bishop John, throwing her life--present and future--into confusion.
 
I Can see through books, about the Amish how hard a Shunning can be to the person being shunned and thier family members. The movie has also helped me understand it alittle more to, they do out of tough love, in hopes that they will come back and repent,
 
It a must see movie!!!
