Harrisonburg, Virginia, a county seat town in the Shenandoah Valley.
2. What is your favorite verse, book or story in the Bible? Why?

Besides being captivated by the special effects and the alternate reality dystopia, it’s a philosophically rich treatment of the human condition, free will and has plenty of Christian symbolism.
