JOY Church will host ‘Gifted Hands: The Ben Carson Story’ during a free movie night at 7 .m. Saturday, Feb. 7. Free popcorn and soda will also be provided.
‘Gifted Hands’ is the true story of a black child raised by a single mother who constantly encouraged him to use his God-given gifts, according to a press release. He grows from being a poor student to the top of his class and then to becoming a world-famous neurosurgeon.
“It would be hard not to be inspired by this movie,” the release continues. “Repeatedly, Ben has to overcome prejudice to be able to let the gifts God has given him blossom. The message of this movie is that by focusing on God’s will for your life you can become the very best you can be and will become God’s agent in ministering to others.”
