I've heard quite a bit about this movie on Radio Rhema (1251 AM) in Auckland and looking forward to viewing it on the weekend. It's made by the same Christian movie makers of the movie "Courageous" about 4 men overcoming difficulties and the vow that they make to their families in the end is really powerful.
And my mum really likes the movie "Fireproof" that I bought a few years ago and she took it to Samoa with her. It has a powerful and healing message about how a couple are torn apart by issues but slowly, with the help of a mentor, they heal their marriage and come together again.
The two movies that I've watched so far have powerful messages for both couples and families. It really makes you think about the day to day decisions that we often make when facing adversity and how it can positively or negatively affect a family.
The two other movies which I haven't had the chance of viewing yet are "Flywheel" and "Facing the Giants" all with a Christian messsages about overcoming family problems/issues and working together.
A couple of years ago, I heard an interview by the Kendrick Brothers, who are the movie makers, about their dream of making a movie and in making it happen. It was within a small US community who worked together with a small budget, but then viewers in the USA really enjoyed the movies with rave reviews that they are continuing to make more movies.
It shows how powerful the power of the pen and the power of the lens is. So if you're not doing anything this weekend, why not check it out? or view the other movies...
