What an awesome movie. I found it on accident, but I know God made it possible for me to see it at just the right time. To me, the theme of this movie is: trust God. Prayer is all about entrusting Him with the things that we think are beyond resolve. This movie may be fiction, but the magnitude of desperation shown in each story line is truly real. Never think that the person next to you has it easy, because it's truly a fact that no one does. I loved that this movie did not use a lot of "christian-speak", or buzzwords and phrases that seem to be hand-in-hand with judgemental actions. It didn't preach. We see Coach Paul lose his cool, lose patience at times, and lose control of his emotions in the form of painful tears. This is why the movie is relatable. On a side note, I loved how the Coach took such good care of his team; while he loses his cool to some degree, he keeps his anger in check, and he puts their well-being first. (Schools should use this movie to help guide their teachers, especially in coaching/athletics.) Most importantly, this movie can appeal to anyone, no matter where they stand on faith. It's entertaining, if nothing else, but at best it offers the opportunity to evaluate our faith stance, or perhaps to start asking questions. Interestingly, I was reminded that God's timing is perfect. I find it incredibly sad and profound that young Mr. Lashaway lost his life before the movie could even be released. It so clearly shows that God used him for an amazing, powerful purpose- right before his life on earth ended. I feel sad for the cast that had to lose their colleague and friend, but am so grateful this movie was released and given its place in the world.

One of the most beloved shows of my entire life. I loved: - the brilliant writing - the chemistry of each wonderful character - hands down the most easy to watch cast - you want to be in their friendship circle! - the cerebral aspects - you always learn something new/cool about medicine if you pay attention. - the clean story lines - nothing that will make your mom cringe, or that your child will be scarred if they see. - I also loved the diversity they showed consistently. (and not in a gratuitous PC way) - the scenes/setting - almost too beautiful! The show was harder for me to follow with two story lines: the espionage (?) story line with Campbell Scott's character, and the story line of Hank's father (The Fonz!) - I love both of those actors tremendously, but the story lines weren't as interesting to me personally. I still give this 5 out of 5 stars and would love to see it come back.
