WHEN LOVE IS NOT ENOUGH

Kirk Cameron is definitely the icon of modern Christian movies. The movie made $33.5 million in the box office, making it the highest grossing independent film in 2008. From the apocalyptic backdrop of LEFT BEHIND, CAMERON stays in present tense, hits dead center of the marriage rut in FIREPROOF. Truly a pragmatic expose on the day-to-day onslaught on challenged vows. I for one believe that LOVE is NOT the core stabilizer of marriage. LOVE is a crucial element; however, I believe that COMMITMENT takes on center stage. " DO NOT FOLLOW YOUR HEART...LEAD YOUR HEART " , Cameron aptly puts it. A complete reversal of what modern-day love gurus would have you to believe. Definitely a "must see" regardless of one's religious persuasions.
