Carl Lumbly: Pastor Leon Wright

Quotes 

• Helen Goddard : I've been thinking about Lazarus. Now, we all now he rose from the dead, right?

  Pastor Leon Wright : [yes] 

  Helen Goddard : But what happened after that? They never say. And I would like to know. I mean, that's the interesting story, isn't it? Was he happy about it? I have a feeling his sisters weren't too happy. I bet they weren't happy at all when he came back. It's just too weird. They were probably running around the house whispering: "This was a mistake. There's something not right about it." And that something was that Lazarus was dead. And he should have stayed that way.

  Pastor Leon Wright : Lazarus' sister begged Christ to bring him back.

  Helen Goddard : And that is my point. He shouldn't have listened! The finality is for a reason, Pastor. Don't you think? I mean, to just go on and on, it would - oh, it would be excruciating. How do you organize a life with no death to define it? I really want to know.
