"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
Romans 6:8
While watching The Hunger Games for the first time, I was really moved by Katniss volunteering as tribute, when her little sister's name was called. I can remember sitting in the theater, crying. I made the connection that I am sure many other have made. It was a connection that I failed to see when I read the books themselves.
The Hunger Games revolves around a tribute being required, a sacrifice essentially, to remind the people of their past. Of their history, where District 13 rebelled against the Capitol. Upon doing so, District 13 was completely destroyed. Rarely would any child want to be chosen to compete in The Hunger Games.
