    Finally something to make you think!

    What a wonderful labor of love! This documentary brings up important questions and is very well done. It has unique heart and is very fair in its presentation. Very real and raw-it is a great example of sincere emotion and faith. No doubt that it will leave a lasting impression. Could not recommend it more--not just your typical doc.
