MME Minute: š Talk about reading the book, then seeing the movie! š„ šæ
Good evening,
Itās Sunday, August 3rd 2025.
If Song of Songs were a film, it would be the love story to end all love storiesāan impossible-to-miss romance between the mysterious but mesmerizing Shulammite woman and her beloved: a humble shepherd boy from the country.
Sheās brought to Solomonās palace. Offered luxury, praise, and position.
But she says no to the worldās crownā¦and yes to a love that cannot be bought.
She walks away from the palace and returns to the one who knew her, loved her, and honored her before she was āsomeone.ā
Which is everything, isnāt it?
From her point of viewā¦
Who needs a king and the trappings of palace, scepter, and throne when you can have the perfect poet/warrior/gentleman/shepherd?
āø»
š” What does it mean for us?
The story challenges each of us to choose:
ā¢ Purity over power
ā¢ Character over credentials
ā¢ Sacred over superficial
ā¢ Love that transforms over love that merely flatters
Itās a living parable of spiritual fidelity in a world of seductive options.
āø»
And yesterday, as the officiantā¦I saw it all unfold in real time.
I witnessed a bride who could have landed anyone at the Yellowstone Club. And I mean anyoneāany eligible bachelor, any modern-day Solomon.
But she chose sacred over status.
She chose a country boy from Laramie. Not a literal shepherdābut in every meaningful way, one at heart.
This manāhe lives Colossians 3:12ā16 like few Iāve ever seen:
ā¢ Clothed in compassion
ā¢ Kind as kind can be
ā¢ Gentle in grief
ā¢ Strong in service
ā¢ Patient when waiting for change
ā¢ Faithful in love
In the wake of his fatherās passing, he has stood in the gap for his widowed mother, grieving sister, and younger brother with wisdom beyond his years.
As his name suggests, he is both beautiful and wise.
But also tender and brave.
A shepherd.
A son.
A servant.
A poet. A warrior. A gentleman.
āø»
āØ What a day. What a story. What a transformative love.
Not just for them.
But for everyone who witnessed it.
Including me.
Meeting themāand seeing them marryātransformed me in a Romans 12:2 kind of way.
And for that, I am deeply, forever grateful. š
