Because of Grácia

Great Christian movies that weaves many religious topics into an entertaining romantic drama. Touches quickly and lightly upon censorship of God in schools, evolution vs creation, dating vs courtship, teenage pregnancy, and abortion. You will fall in love Gracia and her infectious smile.

So to make it short. I'm a Neuroscience PhD student and a movie like this that teaches and supports creationism on the basis of putting the evolutionary theory down is so so scary and just utterly wrong!!

Don't get me wrong if it was just the Christian thing of the both protagonists being believers, I wouldn't have cared. And even the abortion scenes weren't too bad - at least it was an option. And it is and should be one btw. Whatever you say - my opinion is, if you don't wanna use it then don't but don't deny the option to others just because you wouldn't use it. And even the bad acting, shallow characters, bad writing etc. wouldn't have made it too bad.

But supporting creationism is not a way. It's not only that they present Darwin's theory completely wrong here. And that her arguments debunking it, have no to little actual scientific basis to make them count besides pure belief. It is scary that the creators of this movie thought to costume the thoughts of creationism in a movie with romance and Christianity primarily centered to young adult viewers, would be a ethically right thing to to. These kinds are impressionable and hell they probably don't get a good education on evolution as it is. And then to go and show them things like this that are completely wrong and has been debunked by all the other theories, is unbelievable.

And just btw, just because her Father is supposed to be a microbiologist doesn't make her right or makes this whole thing any better. It's just a sign how manipulative the writing of this movie is and how it's supposed to give you the benefit of the doubt to her views and warp your mind.

Every movie communicates a worldview; each one indicates something about what the writers, director, producers, and actors believe about the world in which we live. Captain Marvel. Interstellar. Toy Story 4.

Saving Private Ryan. Captain Marvel. I Can Only Imagine. Interstellar. Toy Story 4. I Still Believe. Rain Man. Just Mercy. Each of these communicates a view of what we should and shouldn't do, what human relationships should look like, how we got to where we are, and our purpose.

The storyline: Chase, OB, and Gracia grow in understanding and communicating the love of God while still holding on to His truth. They encounter difficult issues like dating, sanctity of human life, and creation in a pretty realistic setting for high schoolers.

Because of Gracia is a top movie in communicating the truth about our world in our current cultural climate--the truth about how we got here, why we're here, and how we should live. It does this while swimming upstream against the dominant cultural worldview. Even though this film goes against what we might be tempted to believe, everyone should consider this movie's claims.

Many movies communicate a distorted view of reality. Secular movies tend to advance an ungodly and even godless view of our world. Some Christian movies seem to present a view of the world that is "too perfect" and they come across as imbalanced. Because of Gracia balances the two extremes, arguing that God is real and at work in an imperfect world full of broken sinners. This movie is an admirable effort to communicate the truth of God's Word; His communication with us; the Bible.

As a youth pastor, I found this movie helpful for myself, I hope it's helpful for our teens, and I recommend it for your consideration.

Nothing in this that I enjoyed. Perhaps if it provided some better debate or some factual elements to arguments. But, ultimately, it provides nothing of the sort. It amounts to 'flat-earth' propoganda parading as a film.

I have to say the movie gives out a great message to the youth. It talks about serious topics like the embarrassment of many youth to say they are Christian or catholic and that they believe in Jesus. They feel they might be judged and might not fit in. This movie says to stand up for Jesus and praise him because he loves us no matter what. Our past our mistakes anything god will still love us and that we should be proud to be sons of god. Finally I want to say this movie requires more attention. It was sad that me and my girlfriend were the only ones in the whole theater. I really hope movies like this that talk about Jesus and positivity get more light shed on them.
