One they are extremely cheesy and mostly poor acting. The biggest reason however is that every Christian film ends in a good note: Unsaved people become saved, unsaved boyfriends becomes saved, the ending is the happiest ending ever. The problem with this is it creates a mindset that everything in my life will be fixed and will turn out happy. Unfortunately our Christian life is riddled with problems, sorry, pain, etc. There are times that God says no to our request. Sometimes our issues turn out fantastic and other times they do not. But Christian films make us 'feel' good and make us look at God as though He will always answer our prayers with a Yes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note i put inverted commas in the Christian in the first image. The problem is with one's like the shack and I'm in love with a church girls which process to be saved and actually push unchristian messages. I actually pointed out some indiscrepancies in them and was met with opposition from professed Christians 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could attend a church that does nothing but give us warm, fuzzy feelings of happiness. Or we could attend a church that causes us to look at our Christian life and make us feel uncomfortable at times causing us to grow in our Christian walk. I did not see the Shack movie and from what I heard about it I do not think I want too. I did see a pre-view for the Church Girl one and I am not much into mushy, romantic movies so I wouldn't watch it anyway. We can't be so weak in our believes that we give them up as soon as someone in a movie say it is okay to do so. Well I guess that is all I have to say about that. Cary on.

I find many Christian movies are “spiritual” but often not exactly aligned with the Bible. Take any “Christian” movie for example: 1. Facing the Giants 2. War Room 3. Fireproof 4. Courageous 5. God’s not Dead 6. Miracles from Heaven 7. Faith Like Potatoes 8. Letters to God 9. Heaven is for real 10. The Left Behind series 11. The Shack 12. Flywheel 13. The Grace Card 14. Mom’s Night Out 15. Risen 16. All Saints 17. The Star 18. Same Kind of Different as Me 19. The Young Messiah God bless, GE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
