Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Originality
Review: If you want to watch something different, yet funny, clean, and entertaining--then this is the movie for you. It's about a Mormon missionary and the events he goes through. It packs about almost everything that could happen in one mission. It poses interesting insight, but doesn't preach to you. If you want something different try this movie, okay?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Worth watching
Review: The fact that this movie is clearly Mormon propaganda is likely to scare some people off. Many others will simply want to laugh through it (there are some pretty funny parts- listen carefully to the background music)The movie does, however, highlight some techniques that might be useful for more mainstream Christians. For one thing, it makes you stop and pay attention. Before watching "God's Army" most of us would turn a Mormon away from our door. Now we are inclined to invite him in and ask him questions. It's also true that however skewed their beliefs may be, they are extremely dedicated to the life that they are living, and they are willing to stand out. In fact, it is the result of their contrast to the society around them that they are able to grow. It makes one think, "How well is this leaven in the bread approach really working?" Perhaps we should begin to think more in terms of the kind of contrast society that Jesus set up. By distinguishing ourselves from the world, rather than integrating ourselves into it, we will free ourselves to become a light to the nations and attract people to our life.
