Christian Movie Reviews, Because What You Watch Matters...Our Christian movie reviews can be a tool to help you to guard your heart. We are told in Proverbs 4:23 how important it is to guard our hearts. We are told to do this "above all else" and exhorted to avoid wickedness. Sadly, today it is harder than ever to avoid that wickedness in selecting entertainment. Have you ever started watching something not knowing that there are things in the show/movie that you shouldn't be watching? With our selections of inspirational movies, we hope to help you to avoid that situation and glorify God in our entertainment. With our Christian movie reviews, we hope to let you know about the few well known releases each year. We also hope to let you know about many of the other quality Christian movies that you normally wouldn't hear about. You can let us know what your favorite Christian movie is by joining the My Christian Space community and taking our poll. NOT EASILY BROKEN is a movie (rated PG-13) that is based on a book by T.D. Jakes and depicts the real world struggles of being in a marriage. At times the language that is used and some of the themes are not "Christian" but they seem necessary to tell the story. It is a good story based on the Biblical principle that a chord of three strands is "not easily broken" and that God has to be at the center of a marraige for it to be strong. This is a good movie for couples to watch but we would not recommend it for children. FAITH LIKE POTATOES is a movie that was originally made in 2006 and released in South Africa but has now been released on DVD for rental or purchase in the United States. This is a wonderful movie that can inspire you in your faith. It is a story of a farmer and his faith. It has a very good lesson about the meaning of faith and especially faith when others oppose you and think you are crazy. You can rent the DVD or purchase it online at globalcreative.co.za FIREPROOF is the latest release from Sherwood Pictures and they have done it again! It is simply amazing how God is using that congregation from Albany Georgia to reach the world. This is an excellent film for couples that are going through some rough times in their marriage as well as couples thinking about getting married. This film features Kirk Cameron as a firefighter with a marriage that is on fire and headed for destruction. Through this story it is easy to see the importance of Jesus Christ being the center of any marriage. You can order this on DVD as well as hosting an event at your church. For more information check out fireproofthemovie.com The movie FLYWHEEL was the first movie from SHERWOOD PICTURES and was made in 2004. The story of how the movie came to be is in itself worthy of a movie. How a local church took $20000 and made a movie is just amazing and truly a "God thing". FLYWHEEL is the story of a "Christian businessman" who tried to separate his being a Christian from his business. If we admit it, most of us probably have been through a similar situation and this film can inspire us all to grow in our walk with the Lord. The story will not only make you shed a tear but you will probably laugh a little too. The central theme is that there is a turning point in every man's (or woman's) life and, when you reach that point, you do not look back you just serve the Lord. For more information or to purchase the DVD you can check out flywheelthemovie.com ONE NIGHT WITH THE KING from GENER8XION ENTERTAINMENT tells the story of Esther from the Old Testament book. This is a good movie for married couples to curl up together and watch. For the most part it tells the biblical account but there is a lot of romance and background information added. It is a good story about how God puts people in certain places at certain times and gives them the opportunity to serve Him. It also points out how our obedience to His will can affect others. END OF THE SPEAR, from EVERY TRIBE ENTERTAINMENT, is the true life story of five missionary families in the Amazon jungle. It was released in January 2006. Although the movie does contain a lot of violence, it is necessary to tell the story. This is a wonderful story of forgiveness and is a must see for every mature Christian. You can find it online at everytribe.com In Bethlehem Star, Rick Larson presents a fascinating look at the events that took place in the sky both at the birth of Jesus and at His crucifixion. We have all heard people say that the amazing events such as a star stopping in the sky or the sky going totally dark at noon could not have happened. But, in this film, the biblical accounts are backed up by scientific observations and common sense. You will need to be able to pay attention and concentrate through this presentation but it really is all put together at the end. This inspirational film will leave you amazed at what God has done. You will truly have a new appreciation of just how big and in control God is!
You can learn more and also order the DVD at bethlehemstarmovie.com Our Christian movie reviews takes a look at AN UPHILL CLIMB, a truly inspirational movie from Callan Films. It is the story of Kyle Packer and truly brings the "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength" message home. It is the story of overcoming "disabilities" and reminds us to look at the heart of a person and not the outside. Kyle shares with us the story of preparing for and leading a whitewater rafting trip and also a mountain climbing expedition. The movie combines lots of action and beautiful scenery with an inspiring look at overcoming perceived limitations. This would be a good movie to buy and hold onto for those days when you feel like having a pity party. (It's ok to admit it. We all have days like that.)
