The Most Important Image Ever Taken began in a way that reminded me of the Fact and Faith films of the 1950’s. However, I was impressed that there was no attempt to use the film to tell me what I should believe. It presented some astronomical facts and left me with the sense of awe and mystery with which I must deal in my own way. Within a few moments I found myself miles away lost in the wonder of it all and challenging my deepest convictions, concerned at how easily we Christians domesticate the God we speak of, sometimes so glibly.
