May 22, 2010.

I'm sitting here at home, waiting for Chris to get home from the track. I got home a little bit ago, tired, headache and I'm sure I stink from grilling food there and the combination of other smells that you get at a go-cart track. So, while I wait for him to get home, I thought I would post about a movie he and I watched early this afternoon.

We made a quick trip down to Lafayette to pick up a few things. We stopped at the Christian Bookstore. I picked up a cool t-shirt and when I checked out they always have these 5.00 specials sitting at the register. Before we checked out, Chris showed me a movie he wanted to check if Netflix had because he had been wanting to see it. The movie is Called Flywheel and is the first movie made by the Sherwood Baptist Church. This church made the movie Fireproof as well as Facing the Giants. I've seen Fireproof, but have seen the other one.

Anyway, when I checked out the movie Flywheel was one of their 5.00 specials. So, I picked it up and we watched it right after we got home.

This movie was made by the church and most of the actors in it were members of the church. The budget for the movie was a meager 20,000. The movie gained a big following and made it to many theaters after it was made. You can tell that it was made on a low budget, but the story is a wonderful one. I won't give it away here...if you want to borrow it I would be glad to loan it out. The main actor in the movie was one of the churches ministers at the time. He also directed and wrote the story.

I can say that the movie really talks about the positive power of prayer and how it can truly impact your life. I now want to see their other movie, Facing the Giants. I'll have to check Netflix for that one!
