My guess is there isn't a Christian alive who doesn't know the story of The Last Supper, though your biblical knowledge may help determine your appreciation for this film and your awareness of in what places Borrelli's film deviates from biblical accounts and fairly well-established biblical history may also become a factor in your willingness to surrender to a film that occasionally impresses visually but never hits a note of emotional resonance beyond the inherent power of the story itself.
While I expected to appreciate "Good Soil" having become familiar with Chu through his work with the Evolving Faith Conference and his co-authoring with Rachel Held Evans "Wholehearted Faith," the truth is I loved every word of "Good Soil" from the opening chapters that served up the roots of Chu's life to the natural, rhythmic prose of Chu's journey through Princeton Theological Seminary's "Farminary."
