PG // 109 Minutes
First love, second chance. That's what this movie is about. Jeff and Heather were high school sweethearts and married young. After the birth of their first child, Heather goes over the deep end and just up and leaves her family behind. Forced to move on, Jeff raises their son on his own. After 10 years, Jeff is finally moving on, about to ask his girlfriend to marry him. When Jeff's son attends a week long church camp with a friend, Jeff finds someone he never thought he would see again. Heather. She is now part of a ministry at church, turned her life around and became a believer in God. Find out what happens when a believer and non-believer try to make things work after 10 years of being apart.This movie is definitely family friendly. I did enjoy the movie, but there seemed to be something lacking in it. The acting and the way the movie was made reminded me of similar films like Fireproof and the Left Behind movies. Now, I still don't know the Bible that well, so I don't know if what was said in the movie about marriage and divorce is true, but it certainly made me think about what I want to be looking for in my future husband. It's a touching movie, that leaves behind a feeling of hope. That second chances really are possible.
If desired, you can go to their website http://www.nogreaterlovethemovie.com to follow along with a bible study that goes with the movie. I didn't get a chance to check out the study, so I don't know how good it is.
Overall, it was good to watch a clean movie. Free from swearing, violence and sex. Which is not what I can say that about the other four movies I watched this weekend!
Ha. I hear what you are saying about Christian movies...the same goes with most of Christian music too (there are some amazing Christian artists....I didn't say ALL). You added your favorite! Yay! I'm going to watch all of them when Jeremy is out of town. :)oh...I won't be adding this to my list. Jeremy's parents will probably make us watch it with them though.
