From Mel Gibson’s Hacksaw Ridge to Lee Strobel’s Case for Christ, faith-based movies have certainly made their mark on the big screen this past year.
The latest to makes waves in the Christian realm, The Heart of Man, is a documentary film set for a one-night screening in 500 theaters across the country—and its timely message is exactly what America needs right now. The movie’s website describes The Heart of Man as a “story inviting the sons and daughters of God to leave behind our broken, moralistic and religious way of thinking and relating to God and to others.”
The film shot in Hawaii re-tells the parable of the prodigal son while weaving in interviews of people struggling with real-life addictions, shame and the the plight of being “not good enough.”
The storyline delves into the depths of God’s unchanging love for us while portraying what it truly means to walk in His freedom.
