I Need a Vacation

I need a ticket to Narnia. That's what I think every time I hear Roar of Love by Second Chapter of Acts.



I don't know of any music that so captures any story or place - I think this CD is even more effective than any of the movie variations. I can't believe that every time I see this CD brought up, all anybody can say about it is, "It's really dated."

I wish they had used the song Roar of Love as the ending credit song when they made the Narnia movie. It would have been a nice nod to this effort, and provide a sense of continuity - that this story isn't just for our time, but has affected people in the past, too. The datedness would have communicated that perfectly as the movie closed.
