Frozen(2013)

This film is suggested for ages all ages and may contain mild thematic content. Biblical themes explored include {"reference":"1 John 3:16","theme":"Laying down life for another","description":"Anna's willingness to die for Elsa — throwing herself in front of a sword for a sister who has been hostile and fleeing — enacts John's definition of love: laying down one's life for a brother or sister, giving oneself to the point of death."}, {"reference":"1 John 4:18","theme":"Perfect love casts out fear","description":"Elsa's arc is explicitly structured around this verse: her magic is uncontrollable because she is operating from fear rather than love. When she receives Anna's unconditional love, fear is expelled and control becomes possible."}, {"reference":"Romans 5:8","theme":"Love while still hostile","description":"Anna's sacrifice for Elsa at the moment Elsa is about to commit murder enacts Paul's theology: Christ died for us while we were still sinners. The sacrifice is not given because the recipient deserves it but despite the recipient's active hostility."}, {"reference":"John 11:25","theme":"Resurrection life","description":"Anna's restoration from frozen death has the shape of a resurrection narrative: the one who gave herself completely to death is restored to life by the power of love. The film's mechanics make love literally the force that overcomes death."}. We recommend parents review content before watching with younger children.
