God's Not Dead

God's Not Dead stars Josh Wheaton (Good Luck Charlie) as Shane Harper, a young college student with a moral dilemma. Professor Radisson, ( Kevin Sorbot: Hercules, Andomeda, Poolboy, Soul Surfer ) wants the entire class to write: "God is Dead", so the class can move on intelligently into the subject of philosophy.
However, Shane a problem. As a Christian, he cannot commit to those three words. Professor Radisson makes it clear that anyone who does not write the words will fail the class. Shane makes a stand and the professor proposes a debate; the loser gets a failing grade. This is a lose / lose situation for Shane. Without missing a beat, Shane asks that the students decide the winner.

Shane pours all of his efforts into the debate. It's not without cost. His girlfriend wants him to give in, friends think he's crazy, and the effort eclipses his other course work. With encouragement from Reverend Dave (David AR White: Revolution Road and The Encounter franchises) Shane begins to form an argument.

Guest appearances from Duck Dynasty and Newsboys make this a christian star event. God's Not Dead is a great movie to help christian's muster up reasons for their hope and with lots of relevant discussion of scripture that encourages faith. It is a timely message for Christians, by Christians, about Christianity. 

God's Not Dead is rated PG. Be aware that there are scenes of confrontation, anger, and death that may not be appropriate for younger viewers.
