Faith Happens

This is a great film and worth the watch. From the very beginning you are able to connect in one way or another with what is happening in the lives of each character. This film is a great representation of the Nita gritty of life and how faith can get you through. Life is tough and this film shows some of the toughest situations people face. But, the truth that this film presents is the best that can be given. I recommend this film to anyone who feels that life is at it's worse. Or who feels that life is great and nothing can go wrong. Actually, I recommend this film to every person. There is something for everyone in this film. Go and see what faith can do!

I was privileged to be at the very first showing of this movie at Granada Heights last night. What a great experience! Faith Happens is composed of a number of different stories that all overlap slightly (like in Love, Actually). All of the stories are true, and all happened to people at one church over the course of its 52 year history. Some of these stories are ones I've heard all my life, but Faith Happens brought them to life more vividly than I'd ever imagined, and made me see how truly amazing they all are, how the events that happen in our lives every day, the way we reach out to people, can make a huge difference in their lives. Especially touching for me was the "Prodigal Son" storyline. This movie is definitely worth seeing. Thank you, Rick and Heidi, for all of your hard work, and having the faith to see your project through and bring all of us such a wonderful gift.

Saw this film at a private screening. It has a GREAT message about God's plan for our lives.

It is a multi-plot storyline and I thought that 'the prodigal son' story was the most compelling.

If you have the opportunity and give the film a chance... it will touch you like it did me.

The music is strong... lots of great locations including Africa.

The film is based on a series of true stories and it is hard to believe that they are in fact all true and that they happened in the same church.

Rick Garside's storytelling pulls the viewer into the troubled lives of several, seemingly unconnected, people who have no interest in the Christian message. The film neither resorts to sugar coating nor to knee-jerk tactics to tell the true story of a church. This in itself makes the film unique. But more importantly, I found "Faith Happens" both authentic and cathartic--a thoroughly satisfying experience, rarely achieved.

As the plot contains a great number of easily missed details, this film is well worth watching, not only once, but several times.

I hope this film gets national billing. If not, at least I'll be able to get the DVD faster.

I watched this movie years ago, I rented the DVD in Amanzimtoti, a small coastal town in South Africa. I absolutely loved the movie, so much so that I wanted to rent and watch again. But the DVD store no longer stocked this movie and ever since then I cannot find this movie anywhere. I am desperate, I have been looking for this movie for years now. It is not available on any of the movie platforms i.e. Netflix, Showmax, Amazon Prime etc. It's almost as though it was never created. Can anyone help me find this movie? It was inspirational, motivational, captivating, painful, truthful and just brilliant. I would really appreciate any assistance in purchasing a copy of this magnificent move. Thanks all, Jeanne.
