This is a much bigger movie than its predecessor "GOD'S NOT DEAD" but it is a much harder film to watch. The conviction and credibility is as strong but most of the characters and their life stories are so far from middle America, it's difficult to relate to half of it. Would much have preferred to see it deal with more middle class people and their struggles to find and maintain their faith rather than drug dealers, an ex-con and a homeless mother and daughter.
Faith in the Lord is at the core of the film and yes life is filled with intertwined and inexplicable coincidences as portrayed.
Looking at the movie as entertainment rather than the message film that it is, seniors Lee Majors 76, and Cybill Shepherd 65, no longer look like the glamorous TV/movie stars we once knew. Nevertheless, both steal the show when they appear on screen. Newcomer Makenzie Moss who plays the little homeless girl Lily is a standout - the kid is so adorable.
In all, a film definitely worth seeing but this is not a Sunday School romp. Lots of adult situations and disturbing, realistic and violent scenes.
