​Mountain Top Experience

OK, I’m going to tell you something that I didn’t even post on Facebook. That’s right, you’re
hearing it first, right here on Down Home Shalom!

Just for fun I registered for a modelling agency. Yep, they occasionally have gigs for the “over
50” crowd. I figured it would be fun.

Back in October I got an email that if I was interested in being cast as an extra in a Jeff
Goldblum movie, I should contact the casting director directly. To make a long story short, I
was cast as an extra for a movie called “The Mountain.” While originally cast in a group scene
as a mental patient (please hold the laughter!), they picked me out of a lineup to do a dance scene with Jeff Goldblum!

I couldn’t believe it was happening! We danced, he twirled me around, we chatting in between takes about stuff – including that I was a Messianic Jew. He didn’t know what to make of that, but we had no time to discuss further.

Why am I writing about this here? Because I need to remember–and you need to remember-
that famous actors are just people. They are not Yeshua. They are not God. We need to treat
them like regular folks and pray for them.
​
Yes, it was an experience I’ll never forget. Will they keep the scene? When is the movie
coming out? Will he remember me? I don’t know the answer to any of these questions, but I
will pray for him to know Yeshua. Will you join me?
