The movie "Courageous"

[Christownsme]

I saw the movie "Courageous" tonight at church. I really thought it was a heart and thought provoking movie. The title is so appropriate. It was about Godly courage, integrity, responsibility, honesty, and taking charge. The movie itself centered around men taking these attributes seriously with God, their spouses and kids, and people around them.

I put this post in the non-denominational area because it's not so much about what happened in the movie so much, more its values taught in a person's life. It demonstrated the power of having a Godly father in the household. It also mentioned those who do not have a father figure, how to find your heavenly Father, a committment to Jesus Christ, and full of other really important values.

In the Gospels, Jesus taught so much on values, integrity, honesty, taking charge, and this all takes courage.

Did this movie strike home with any others?

That movie is so good. I saw it in the theater and then bought it. My church is doing the study group thing next month. It really gets you thinking about family, relationship and making God the center of it all.

I only hope that I can be as courageous as the movie depicts. There are parts of my life I need to take courage and do the right thing.

I was very disappointed with it. I felt it was contrived, boring, and over the top preachy.

Awesome movie! All present and future husbands and fathers should watch it.
