I think Facing the Giants is a good movie, and I really enjoyed it, but it left a bit of the "if you just pray hard enough you'll get what you ask for" taste in my mouth......

I'm certain part of it comes from not only going through something similar to the couple, but in knowing hundreds of other couples who deal with the same issues in trying to have a family.

It was a little too much of "all your wishes granted" for me. Which feeds into this idea that I see a lot of people have: That God is some "genie" granting your prayers if you just pray right or do this or that right you'll get everything you ask for. He doesn't say He'll answer our prayers, just that we'll have peace.

Still. I really like the movie and suggested it to my friends.
