Holy Ghost

My wife and I had planned all week to go to our favorite karaoke bar. But God had other plans.

It started with an unexpected obstacle: a Hollywood thriller was shooting in the downtown area, and as a result my bus was trapped. My wife was working and could not get out of it. Should I wait 90 minutes and risk spoiling the schedule, or take the train and hope I could somehow get home from the station four miles from our house?

The Lord provided. My daughter happened to be in town, and like magic, she was actually free and able to come pick me up at the station. So I extended an invitation: would she come with us tonight? Due to a family problem, she didn't know whether she would be able to come to the karaoke. At home, while my daughter was drinking a smoothie, I thought to check the bar's Facebook page. Rats! Karaoke was cancelled and replaced by a band.

God was looking out for my daughter, who now did not have to disappoint us by rejecting the invitation. But He was also looking out for me and my wife. We had been listening to a podcast that discusses Christian movies in a less than flattering way. My wife was searching Netflix and, like it was pre-ordained, we found this movie! He is indeed a God that hides from us (Isaiah 45:15) but those who seek shall find (Matt 7:7).

Not only did we have a ton of laughs and a great conversation about arrogance, narcissism, con artistry and squandering Kickstarter money, we also have a movie to recommend to the podcasters. Instead of being disappointed that our night out was pre-empted, we got something so much more meaningful!

Having watched 'Furious Love' and ''Father's light' this was a HUGE Disappointment. Just shows you that a film maker can easily go down hill when poverty of spirit is not maintained. Trying to 'repeat success' is the biggest antidote to maintaining blessing and anointing. I wept when watching the previous documentaries but most of us fell or almost fell asleep watching Holy Ghost. It was superficial boring and frankly speaking just spiritual show off. I loved the honesty that was in Furious Love which lacked in this new venture. My exhortation to the director is to go back to zero and not try to make God some magician of love. You should develop the concept of love that you began with and not remain in this evangelical magic show. Get deeper with every documentary. Not more bizarre and feathery . Jesus is depth. The prayers we witnessed were so casual. I can't believe that Jesus would have prayed like that nor His true disciples.I have miracles too to tell you about, but they are not borne so casually as portrayed. Unfortunately you provide entertainment not edification. At least for this documentary. Christians and those hungry need edification. What about follow up stories? It's alright to pray for this and that person. But what happened to them in the next few years will be the biggest story. Otherwise you are no different to a Benny or Joyce who make money or get attention from the the most superficial part of hmmmmmmm....Christianity????? You are right that most of Christiandom have lost it. Please don't do the same. God bless and wishing you all the best. Regards Riew

I didn't know much about this documentary going into it. Aside from the promotional videos being released I didn't know what this film was going to be until I saw it. I loved it from beginning to end. Darren Wilson's directing, accompanied by Tony Anderson's beautiful, moving score honestly makes this one of my favorite movies. I really enjoyed it, as a follower of the Christ Jesus it was a very inspiring film, and overall it was just really good filmmaking. Having the perspectives of several different people from many different backgrounds and walks of lives really helped the film... I honestly enjoyed every part of the film. Definitely recommend it to everyone.

This movie is great for Christians to encourage them to use the power the Holy Spirit gives us, to walk in the Spirit, not be ashamed of Christ and lovingly spread the Gospel without judging, imposing.. just give the gifts of healing and restoration freely, just like Jesus has done.

The movie gives much glory to our Lord Jesus, and it shows His true face - reaching out to people who need Him, offering them love, salvation, health and happiness.

I love that the cast went to India and showed Jesus' light in such a dark place, filled with demonic religions and oppressed, lost people. Those are the exact people who need to hear the gospel the most. I would like to thank the creators of this movie for their courage, this has inspired me to listen to the Holy Spirit in me and act upon what He's prompting me to do, even when that means stepping out of my comfort zone. I want to thank guys from Korn and Lenny Kravitz for sharing their testimonies because they have much influence with the people, and Jesus can use them greatly.

I will share this movie as much as I can, and I can't wait for the sequel.

So GOD actually made this movie, seriously? What kind of a marketing trick is that? Sounds like blasphemy to my (Catholic) ears. Just because HE doesn't interfere with our worldly matters and lets us have our way, we don't automatically have permission to attribute lukewarm and uninspired films like this to HIM, do we?

As it says in the storyline given above: no plan, no script - oh, yes, and no inspiration either.

It's one thing to go on a mission. It's another thing entirely to create a piece of art which is truly meaningful and valuable. This film-maker, it seems, has nothing new or original to say. Somebody should tell him the road to hell is paved with good intentions (assuming he had any).
