Which end of the spear?

This weeks summary:

We've discussed the newly released flick "End of the Spear." This classic missionary story has been retold from the viewpoint of one of the lesser known participants, Nate Saint and his son Steve. It is a rather well done film with a positive message that attempts to keep the Gospel and its values subtlely communicated rather than blatantly. It was recently brought to our attention that the main actor who plays the part of both Nate and Steve Saint is a militant gay advocate. This has begun to cause a backlash from our brothers and sisters in the church community. We are equally distressed by the news of the gay actor and the "knee-jerk" response of the Christian community. Here are our questions:

What is the relationship between character and visible lifestyle? How important should that be to us? Should we hold public figures, artists, polititians, athletes...accountable for their personal character? Should institutions, like film companies, sports teams, Every Tribe Entertainment be held accountable for their choices?

If so, then how?

Peace Out,

Kirk, Mako and Kevin
