Southern Gospel

It's a wonderful mix of joy, suspense, pain, forgiveness, hopelessness, restoration, and faith. When there seems to be no justice, that's where faith comes in. I only gave it seven stars because lead actor was a little lacking in his acting abilities and his lip-synching. It's a little low budget, but the story makes up for it and makes it a truly satisfying experience in the end. If you keep an open mind and hang in there, it's a truly encouraging story that reminds us, God loves even the least of us sinners, that he loves us more than we can imagine, and that he will never give up on us! Because there's always hope.

Do not look at the 5.7 that is the current rating for Southern Gospel. This is not a cheesy, church actors movie that has the potential to be good but fails miserably because it is so poorly produced. This is as well made as Jesus Revolution, a story of redemption and forgiveness and real life with real issues that can negatively shape our destinies if we let them. Some find their way out of the vortex of darkness by the light of Christ, yet others choose to take matters into their hands and suffer the consequences. Southern Gospel addresses topics such as child molestation, addiction, and suicide and might not be suitable for young viewers, but it has so much to offer as a faith-based movie and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Brought me to tears- truly from the Lord, our Redeemer, full of mercy, full of grace!! Glory to God- rain down and save our country- send your Dream!!

I'm a product of TV and have seen every thing it had to offer- but like AI, it was used to bring me to see God's mercy- I remember Oral Roberts, Billy Graham, Jimmie Swaggert, now the Chosen, Alan Jackson- now this story- I'm a northerner, but have seen the south and it's got the Lord, because we need Him to save us from ourselves- Holy God, bring more stories like this to show Your Love to Every heart- thank you Jesus for Dying for us, wretched sinners, now yours forever!

There are a lot of incredible faith-based films out there. However, this movie is completely unique in it's approach to telling a Christian story that is not cookie cutter or even PG. It's refreshing to watch a faith-based film that is written in a way that's honest and doesn't shy away from the brutal realities of someone's life. The cinematography is top notch, the acting and singing is great and then knowing on top of all of that that this is a true story just makes this movie incredibly impactful for the viewer. This movie is not like the rest and is certainly worth the watch, whether you're religious or not! 10/10!

You'll walk away from this film feeling hopeful. There are some really great performances and the music is so well done. I can't wait to listen to the soundtrack. The writer/director did not shy away from tough subject matter either.

It's so refreshing to see a Christian film deal with things like addiction, suicide, abuse, and even hypocrisy in the Church. We live in an imperfect world, but there is hope.

If you grew up in southern church culture, this film is for you. If you've walked away from church, this film is for you.

Faith-based entertainment is having a new moment in culture and this one is a great example of a thoughtful, real to life, gritty, TRUE story of redemption.
