God on the Big Screen: Lord Save Us From Your Followers by Ken Wetmore/Dan Merchant

In this 2008 documentary, Hollywood producer and director, Dan Merchant, sets out to discover why Jesus is widely liked while many find His followers to be obnoxious. The documentary is a study on the Christian culture wars that were raging at the time the documentary was made and continue to rage to this day. Rating: PG-13

One of our #WholeLifeReflections this week asked:  How are you imitating Jesus right now? Do you think those around you would agree with your assessment of how you are imitating Jesus?
