Watching Fireproof

I’m excited to see ‘Fireproof’ with Kirk Cameron for different reasons.  First, someone in my church saw it and really, really loved it.  Second, I respect Kirk Cameron tremendously.  He has taken many stands for the Gospel since he first came to know the Lord.  He will only kiss his wife onscreen so when there is a kissing scene in the movie, his wife actually doubles so he kisses her.  How many actors or actresses have that type of conviction?  Third, it seems Fireproof has far exceeded expectations considering its ultra low budget (500K) and has crushed Bill Maher’s anti-God movie ‘Religulous.’  In fact, Fireproof has doubled Religulous in box office receipts.

So next Thursday, I asked my lovely wife on a date to see what I think will be a great movie.  I hope more people will see Fireproof not only because it’s a good movie, but because there is something said for supporting Christians who actually take a stand for Christ, especially in Hollywood.

  2. I’ve heard that the acting is a bit wooden but the story overall is pretty good.
