The phrase "lifelong struggle with homosexuality" is a red flag. The only reason people "struggle with homosexuality" is because of religious dogma. No one (other than closeted non-heterosexuals) "struggles with heterosexuality". Yet you never hear that phrase. The "God Awful Movies" ("GAM") team has a scathing review of this movie which should be listened to by anyone who thinks this is a good movie.

Not the Jesus I Know! This documentary deserves -100!!

As a devout Christian, (my ENTIRE LIFE and straight my WHOLE LIFE as well) happily married to my husband and we have two beautiful children God blessed us with, I find this to be a terrible example of Christs love and acceptance. **THIS IS HOMOPHOBIC PROPAGANDA, NOT A GODLY TESTIMONY!!!** The focus starts to shift from God to homophobia SO quickly it's ridiculous. If your trying to find Gods love and acceptance for who he made you to be DO NOT WATCH THIS RUBBISH!! I made it 40mins in before I started crying and had to leave just thinking of how much pain, heartache and harm this kind of blasphemy causes to those in the LGBTQ community. God is love, not a parent only capable of conditional love and unobtainable acceptance.
Pure poison

THIS MOVIE IS AMAZING. I have serious doubts about the validity of the other user review, as what was displayed throughout this movie is exactly opposite of what they seem to claim.
Regardless, this is a personal testimony of one man's journey in life, his struggles, his victory, and the relationship he has with the TRUE GOD.
If you feel your identity is given you by humans and you're not worth it, don't listen.. Instead let God define who you are in His Love for you..
..you can find freedom, He does love you. Don't give up.
God bless you

A Simple and Honest Heart Looking For Him

I'm a devout Christian as well. I don't agree that this movie is a man spouting homophobic propaganda. This is a talented and earnest man recounting his history and life. At approximately 40 minutes in, there was a part where a facebook homose xual reached out to him about his "conversion" and he responded to him. Not with words about God's wrath, but about God's love and ability to change him.
When one becomes a professing Christian, that person becomes changed. We are all broken. Whether one is a homosexuality, adultery, addicted to pornography, gluttony or whatever. It's all Sin to Him.
What is expressed in this movie is how Dennis Jernigan found freedom in Him. Could this be offensive to some people? Yes. By understanding all sin is offensive to God.
It's worth watching.

Very honestly told personal human testimony.

In these very anti God days. the forces of darkness would call good evil and evil good. This was simply one mans testimony of his journey and struggle to find God in his life. I very much liked the music and the photography. This was a difficult story to tell It was extremely well done. God can and needs to change all of us.
