 | Ascension
 | Rannulph Junah was the best golfer
Savannah had ever seen, until he returned from World War I, having
"lost his swing." Bagger Vance appears from out of
nowhere to be his caddy and help him find it (and himself) again.
As they approach the last green, Bagger tells Junah that it's time
for him to leave. Junah wants him to stay, because "I
still need you." Bagger hands over the clubs to a young
boy and instructs him to carry on. The boy feels inadequate to
the task, but Bagger assures him that he can do the job. (FUMC,

 | Holy Spirit
 | I see this movie as a portrayal of how the Holy
Spirit comes out of our darkness (fear, doubt) to bring the gift of
shalom--wholeness, well being, peace. The Holy spirit is a guide, a
teacher. In the movie he doesn't force, only reminds and encourages
a young man to commit to living life to the fullest. (Esther
Schmidt)
