In 1948 the ancient nation of Israel was reborn. This rebirth represents the fulfillment of a multitude of biblical prophesies. It also represents a unique opportunity for the Church to express their love and appreciation for what Almighty God has accomplished through His Chosen People. Unfortunately many if not most Christians believe the Church replaced Israel as the Chosen People. This error has led to the mistreatment and persecution of the Jewish people for the last 2000 years. This wonderful documentary challenges the Church to reconsider her relationship with the Jewish people and the nation of Israel. I want to thank the Frank family and their team for producing this amazing film. Sam

Absolutely amazing!!

This is a movie, a docudrama about the church history: its forgotten roots and about the reformation of the church that changed a whole society; the reformation started something in the church, but it has forgotten something very important... The movie gives a honest and bold picture of the church of the past and today. It helps to understand why we think in the way we do.

I loved that movie for many reasons: - It was an absolutely genius idea to put that kind of message-documentary in a movie format. It's unique! - I loved the pictures, the costumes and the actors. You travel through time, and it makes it easier to understand that topic. - Every one can watch it, a believer or a non believer.

I have seen this wonderful documentation about the Church History and not only once but many times. I believe every Christian or Jewish believer should see this eye-opening film. I have told many people about this film and will continue to do so. A rare and instructive film about some dark parts of our Church that many don't know about. BRAVO to the team that made this film!!

I really liked that this film is so outside the box. Documentaries about theology and the middle east tend to be pretty dull, but this film is completely unlike those standard talking head pieces. They could have played it really safe, and been very conservative with a bunch of experts just talking at the camera, but instead this film actually illustrates and depicts the history. It tells the story in a very innovative way. I feel like there are enough of those boring talking head documentaries out there, it's good to see something ambitious and unexpected!!! The message is powerful, I think every Christian should watch this. Thumbs up from me!

I had no idea about the history of the church until I watched this movie and honestly I'm really shocked. I looked up the information online and it's all there I guess someone just needed to join up the dots. I'm definitely glad I saw this movie and now I know. Really liked it.

This film provokes both Christians and Academicians to think critically about Luther's reformation. For being a moderate low budget film, it was well thought out and produced. The content was refreshing as I have seen nothing like it before. It was fascinating to see the use of several mainstream Christian figure-heads such as Jaci Velasquez, Don Finto, James Goll, etc. The film would not be as interesting to those less intellectually inclined. It requires a bit of processing to analyze the true consequence of such change and ideology in the mainstream Christian Reformed Tradition. The Catholic Church may also be interested in seeing this film. The film is timely as the Christian Church is now facing another crossroads as it pertains to the Jewish People and Israel and therefore, films like these should be seen by anyone who does not wish to stand idly by as culture shapes such positions.

"Let The Lion Roar" is a stunning film that addresses issues that many would prefer to leave covered up. It's a movie that you may want to watch more than once - I found that there's so much content to think through that you almost need to watch it 2 or 3 times to absorb it all.

I'm not surprised that there's a negative review here…this is a shocking movie, and it's bound to be offensive to some. There's always going to be that one person who trashes something just because they feel threatened by it! It's easy to pick holes when you want to undermine something. Don't let that sway you. This is a thought-provoking film that depicts a complex subject in a creative and entertaining manner.

I'm sure it's not for everyone, but for my family and I, this was an informative, edifying watch.

Riveting, film exposing the truth of the ages that have been hidden from our society for centuries! Compelling picture that confronts you to think for yourself and not just go on believing everything that is spoon fed to you! This director and production team have done an Outstanding job of creatively and artistically sharing a message that is far overdue for the world to hear and embrace! I don't know about you but all I know is how impacted my life and countless others lives have been radically touched and even transformed after viewing this film! I encourage you to Let your inner lion roar and consume this film with an open mind and a zeal for truth! Well worth the investment of your time!

Great movie that tells the true story of how Christianity started. The Church deceived people into thinking the Church replaced Israel. The Reformation is not complete and in studying the Bible it is clear that Israel was promised to the Jewish people.
