Facing The Giants

Facing the Giants was directed by Alex Kendrick. This movie was about a football coach of a christian high school team. They are a pretty bad team, and the coach doesn't know how to win with them. As well as this the coach is having trouble at home with his wife not being able to get pregnant. Through and through, He goes through alot of troubles and seems lost, until he finally reaches out to God, who has been with him this whole time, and realized that his whole life, football, and his wife, all needed to be directed by God. Once this concept is grasped, things turn around for his football team, and even his wife gets pregnant!

I really like this movie, it moved me during a time when i had forgotten about God myself. Although it was low budget, and the acting was not very good, you get the message and honestly all the other negative stuff doesn't matter. I think when christian people watch it, they will also see how moving it is to see someone's life change so dramatically when they turn their eyes back on Jesus. Even when non-Christians watch it, they may chuckle about how bad the acting was, but ultimately i hope they will see the meaning behind it.

This really made me see God, because whenever we things are good we seem to forget him and think we are the cause for all the good thats been happening to us, but in reality it just shows that when God is taken out of our sight, we begin to sink just like peter did. when we keep our eyes on christ, there are no giants that we can't face!
