One incredible movie!
Facing the Giants is that movie.
When the Media Arts Pastor at Sherwood Church heard a survey sighting the influence of the media, their church knew they had to do something. They began to make movies. Facing the Giants is their second release and the storyline came directly from God. The actors are all untrained volunteers from the congregation. You want to talk about a community coming together for a common goal and vision and not for their own glory or benefit but only the Lord's. That is this movie, that is this church.
It is a must see. Must own.
We need to support these efforts so that more opportunities for Christian and family films arise. I would love to see Sherwood produce many, many more movies.
So go watch the movie. Make sure you watch the behind the scenes and extras. They are awesome. Their story is awesome. Our God is awesome.
Nothing is impossible for God!

This looks like an awesome movie! I hope to see it the next time we are in the States.
We just rented this yesterday and I loved it too. Some of the critics were pretty harsh on it, saying it is a "name it claim it"/prosperity gospel type movie, but I didn't see it that way. They said "if they win they praise Him and if they lose they praise Him." So, I kept that in mind. Also, the acting wasn't stellar, but it was produced w/only $100,000 and mostly volunteers. I thought it was well done!
