GOD'S NOT DEAD Movie Event @ First Baptist Church Melrose

It’s no secret that many people are asking spiritual questions such as, “does God exist?” Much of our culture—on university campuses and across all spectrums—lives as if He does not. Those who do believe and follow Jesus are asking, “How can i stand up for what i believe? What evidence that God is real can i offer to friends or family?” GOD’S NOT DEAD provides answers in an engaging story that was a box-office hit.

While most students and adults may not face a foe as directly antagonistic as Professor Radisson, all of us will be faced with real-life decisions and choices to obey God’s ways instead of the prevailing practices of the world around us. GOD’S NOT DEAD weaves together examples of people who must count the cost of following Christ. The movie offers solid intellectual evidence for faith and encourages viewers with depictions of the fruit that can result from one faithful decision to obey God and the impact on others that it can make.

GOD’S NOT DEAD is an inspirational movie for students, adults, the church and the wider community. it’s an excellent tool to open conversations about faith and doubt, the existence of God and His offer of salvation, obedience and impact and God’s ability to use one faithful individual who is willing to follow Him through adversity. GOD’S NOT DEAD will challenge you to “love the Lord, your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind” (Matthew 22:37)—no matter what the challenge.
