Description

Paul McDonald and Britt Mooney talk about We Bought a Zoo with Matt Damon and Scarlett Johansson. Some of our greatest adventures begin in our darkest trauma. We get to decide whether to follow the story of safety and security or the story of mystery and miracles. We discover that facing our worst trials takes courage. Join us as we discover God’s truth in this movie.
