Church People Movie Review and Giveaway

 

Church People is a new movie covering a mega church and how the youth pastor and some of its leaders have lost touch with the true Gospel. Guy is the youth pastor and has decided to take a break from public speaking and to get back to his local church youth group. He is ready to rediscover his passion and to get closer to Christ. They showcased the pastor speaking events with beach balls and he started to resent how popular they have become. His senior pastor, has decided to host a real-life crucifixion at the church for an upcoming Easter event. A young new believer, Blaise has agreed to take the nails into his skin and be the represent of Jesus. Meanwhile, the senior pastor daughter comes back into down and becomes a love interest for Guy. Also, to add drama to the mix, the worship leader is also interested in her. Guy also is reconnected with his adopted daughter and movie watchers will get to see how Guy handles this event. Throughout the movie, we will witness church people rediscovering the meaning found in scripture and what the Gospel really means.



 

 

I would recommend this awesome movie to anyone who is seeking a family friendly Christian movie. This movie reminded me more of a TV series style than an actual movie. This movie has the power to assist believers into diving into the meaning of the Gospel and not focusing on religion or falling for the mega church hypes. I liked how the movie shared the important truth of not just trying to entertain our congregation but we need to be preaching the Gospel and how we are supposed to love our neighbors and display Jesus’ love to all. I enjoyed how the film portrayed different types of people in the church and how it added humor to the film to engage the audience. I also loved how it had great cast members in the film such as, Donald Faison, Stephen Baldwin, Carla Finney, Joey Fatone (NSYNC), Thor Ramsey, and Mike Lindell. They all brought a dynamic to the film and they all have a way of entertaining the audience. I do think the storyline could continue in a future film.
