I think the movie, Amazing Love relates really well to the Hosea story. It talks about all the main parts and adds a nice view point. It showed me Hosea's character. It's one thing to read about how Hosea was but watching someone act out this part was amazing because Hosea was such a special, religious man. The movie related to Hosea's story in many ways while still adding a new view point.
I always knew Hosea was a great guy but watching this movie made me really see how forgiving, kind and loving he was. It relates to Hosea's story in the bible really well. It talks about the kids and the prophecies and Israel, but it highlights Hosea's relationship with Gomer. Gomer is viewed in a bad light, as a whore and an unfaithful woman. She doesn't love and appreciate Hosea and he still loves her with all his heart. The movie gives us a new perspective on that though because the movie says how we shouldn't judge someone if we don't know the whole story and how we should be kind to people like Hosea was. Just a little bit of kindness can change someone's life. Overall it was an enjoyable movie, the filming was good quality ,the acting was realistic, and the movie related to Hosea's story really well.
This story means a lot to me because it really lets us see how someone can have such a big impact on everything. Hosea didn't care what people thought about him and he didn't change his ways to protect his ego, he was completely loyal and faithful to God. It shows that with God we can do anything and more importantly with God we can change peoples lives for the better. In the movie, I really liked the part in which Carrie and Ashley had a fight because it shows another situation in which we can look at Hosea's message. Maybe it wasn't the message he was speaking but it was the message he was showing. We need to always be kind to people and show God's light through our actions because we could change someone's life like Hosea changed Gomer's or like Carrie changed Ashley's. The movie was excellent and added a really nice view point. I would recommend watching it.
