In the aftermath of a huge scandal, Trinitie Childs, the first lady of a prominent Southern Baptist Mega Church, attempts to help her pastor-husband, Lee-Curtis Childs, rebuild their congregation.
I watched this movie and I gave it an honest chance to leave an impression that I could consciously live with. I watched it from beginning to end. My synopsis: A BIG WATSE OF MY TIME! It had a few points that I found quite interesting. It does describe some of the current attitudes that rest in the mind of some "church people" and "church goers" very accurately. However, the point of accurately drawing non-believers to and into the church it leaves a lot to be desired. Yes, I do believe that some of the scenes are intended to be funny, I did not fine=d the movie to rate being called funny, period. The "pastor" was an extremely self-centered and self-absorbed con artist. I do not and would never recommend anyone to download or watch this movie. How it made it to the screen is yet another means of people making fun of something I personally hold very sacred. I have heard some actual faith-based comedians that remain true to the integrity of their faith that would have given a better performance as "the pastor" than the actor chosen to play that role, and would have done so without compromising those who are true followers of the Christian faith.
