Divorcing God (Movie): Watch the trailer, read our review
Why watch the movie? Read Ex-Minister's review
How could
two sold out
Christian
newlyweds split
prior to
reaching their
first wedding
anniversary?
Listen as the
young couple
compiles
foundational
spiritual
building blocks
in this
documentary and
then try to
ascertain why
what God hates
became their
chosen outlet.
Although the
couple had said
the right things
and honored God
throughout the
dating process,
the expectations
they had of
bliss never
materialized.
What is it that
holds people of
faith’s
marital unions
together? One
could argue that
this couple was
disingenuous,
but I would
disagree.
Skeptics could
point to the
higher religious
divorce rates
and question the
premise that the
faithful build
upon that was
deftly captured
in this film.
You decide,
because the
provocative
question here
was left open.
No one wants to
see marriages
end in divorce.
In my opinion,
the better
utility of
Divorcing God
lies in the
multitudes that
seek the
prevention and
heartache of
divorce. A
Christian pastor
should be
comfortable
implementing
this into their
pre-marital
counseling
process. Whereas
larger group
settings with a
diversity of
opinion audience
would find this
to be an
excellent
starter because
it appears that
the director
sought to
provoke thinking
rather than
attempting an
interpretation.
There is no
entertainment
value in
divorce, but for
those who prefer
learning through
enlightenment as
opposed to
gathering
experience
though the
school of hard
knocks should
find that an
hour invested
viewing
Divorcing God to
be worthwhile.
