Ok, I walked in on a Sunday late afternoon while my family was watching this show, I thought to myself, oh goodness one of those films where they want you to evaluate your life and be bored watching, well, what a awesome surprise., as my wife explained what happened that led to the amazing end I had to dry the tears away. This is such a powerful message, not trying to win souls, but trying to get a message across about forgiveness. The actors were awesome, and I was really excited to see the forever young Kim Fields, Good Job to the writer and director in bringing the feeling of the message to life.
Plot summary
Pastor David Newman is a loving husband and father set to take over his father's church while neglecting the promises he made to his 12-year-old son Eric. Kate Hernandez is a spiritually-driven single-parent owner of a local restaurant; her daughter Maria is a free-spirited teenager aspiring to be the first in her family to attend college. John Danielson owns a failing construction company and sees his daughter Michelle's fledgling singing career as a way out of financial trouble. These strangers' lives collide when two twists of fate strike back-to-back. The first: while texting and driving in her car, Maria accidentally hits Eric, which lands Maria in jail and leaves Eric's family in an unthinkable dilemma. The second: while auditioning for a major record label, Michelle collapses, leading to a discovery about her health which rocks the very foundation of her father's dream. All three families start questioning their faith and the Higher Power that guides their lives. As each family member deals with their issues, their worlds intertwine. This leads to a chain of events that brings the three families closer and closer together. Will the families give in to the loss, pain and uncertainty that has shattered their lives, or will they find the tie that binds them all together through hope, trust, redemption, and goodwill?

A shocking surprise
Important Message
I tend to dislike religious based movie dramas. The reason is that they tend to be corny, biased with bad writing and acting. This is not the case for this movie for Lifetime. There are a lot of messages, and enough for everyone to relate. Anger, racism, sorrow, self-pity, generosity and a host of a few other obvious gems.
I like this movie because Kim Fields, C. Thomas Howell, and Richard Jones bring their big time Hollywood experience to a not so common quality family story that is made believable and uplifts the remaining supporting cast.
The story is predictable, but you can't wait to see it all come together.
I can't Imagine
This movie shouldn't be judged by being a "Christian" movie. It's a realistic and current to what's happening today. Even if you don't pray or believe in a specific God. Everyone questions why are we here? What is our purpose in life? It's faith, and things happen for a reason. The movie left me feeling satisfied, grateful and at peace. It's a beautiful movie that touches your heart.
