Courageous: The Movie

Courageous
I do not normally do "movie reviews", however this one is different.
This week, my family and I sat down for a Family Movie Night to watch Courageous.

I cried through most of this movie.
This was such a moving tale of friends, fathers, and officers.
I was so touched by the many stories, messages, situations, and encouragement that this movie had to share!
Courageous: The Movie
Check out this link!
I must encourage & challenge EVERY family to watch this as a family!

This is what the movie makers have to say about the movie:
Honor Begins at Home
Four men, one calling: To serve and protect.  As law enforcement officers, Adam Mitchell, Nathan Hayes, David Thomson, and Shane Fuller are confident and focused. Yet at the end of the day, they face a challenge that none of them are truly prepared to tackle: fatherhood.
While they consistently give their best on the job, good enough seems to be all they can muster as dads. But they're quickly discovering that their standard is missing the mark.
When tragedy hits home, these men are left wrestling with their hopes, their fears, their faith, and their fathering. Can a new found urgency help these dads draw closer to God ... and to their children?
Filled with action-packed police drama, COURAGEOUS is the fourth film from Sherwood Pictures, the movie making ministry of Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany, Georgia. Riveted moviegoers will once again find themselves laughing, crying, and cheering as they are challenged and inspired by everyday heroes who long to be the kinds of dads that make a lifelong impact on their children.
Protecting the streets is second nature to these men. Raising their children in a God-honoring way? That's courageous.
Maybe I should give away a copy of the DVD?!?!?
What do you think?

Love, love, LOVE all their movies. Have you seen Facing the Giants? You must watch it if you haven't. Anyway, I cried through Courageous too, and my kids love it. They imitate the back of the police car scene all the time...the whole lunch order from Chik-Fil-A.

Yes, We have watched Facing the Giants and LOVE it too! My kids LOVE the back of the police car scene too! I dont think I have laughed so hard at a movie in a long time! They were laughing before the subtitles popped up because they could understand what he was saying! It was a really cool momment!
