Im ALWAYS in favor of a movie presenting the audience with a moral message. But! This is just a plain BAD movie. It's pacing is slow, the storyline meanders all over the place, and the acting needed to be raised up a few notches. I think Travis CAN act, but not with this poor excuse with a script..One star on this JUNK.

Believers have battles, that's real life and when your wanting a closer walk with God, the world fires everything at you, I really liked this movie, just wish some of the acting was a little better.

I first attracted to this movie from a morning show interview with Candice Cameron, Randy Travis's costar. I like that is about relationships. This movie is about life - what sacrifices we make for the mighty dollar. It is good to see this type of struggle and what he goes through to get to the other end of the crisis. No sex, no violence, no politics. Wow. What we need more of. Thank you to the actors, directors an all for a great job.
