My Review:

I Am Living Proof is a brand new documentary featuring the teaching of evangelist Mario Murillo. He begun a movement using an idea from God about conducting big white tents and using them for miracles and healings. It started in 2022 in Colorado Springs. The film is focused on three key individuals who were all experiencing pain and desperately wanted healing. Bri was a student who had high hopes of graduating when everything changed. She was dealing with physical pain that no one could explain. I have been there before myself when I was battling Lyme disease and had extreme pain, and kidney stones issues for a period of time. I too felt the suicide ideas and the hopelessness. But eventually I was healed as well with 3 months of antibiotics. I liked how the film covered three stories that viewers could easily relate to connect with how they wanted to be healed. Some wasn’t instantly they had to attend a few times before it happened. It was very inspirational and it begs the question is God for real and where is He in our suffering. I was in awe in watching the miracles that occurred at the tent and how they received their healing. I also like how the film included medical professionals and their opinions as well as scriptures discussing healing.
