"Geri9 says, Wow, I wonder if Kelsey Grammer got saved from being in this movie?"

With everything that has happened to him in his life, I hope so!!

Anybody see the movie?  I wanted to go to the 1:30 matinee yesterday but it was snowing and frigid temperature. Today the snow will start again … same time but it looks to only be 1 inch of snow in the forecast and a heat wave of 33 degrees.

Was the theater crowded for the viewing?  Did they have the salvation message?   What were your thoughts?

Well … I got a chance to finally see the movie this afternoon! :whistle:

Most of the people in the little theater room were middle age and older group … sad no young teens.  Lots of people clapped at the end when they showed the real clips of the crusades and those getting saved/baptized in the ocean.

I’m glad I saw it.  I feel sorry for Greg Laurie … I didn’t realize he had a bad childhood.  Then he lost a son in a car accident.

The Lonnie Frisbee guy I thought had an ego with wanting to take over Pastor Chuck Smith’s church.  I liked Greg Laurie’s storyline better … he was humble.

I cracked up with the scene after the snobby members of Calvary Chapel complained they were walking barefoot on the new shag carpet and getting it dirty .. so Pastor Chuck Smith quickly solved THAT problem … by washing the feet of the hippies before they entered his church.😆

The early 1970’s sure were wild and unique timeframe … and how about the “fashion” of the long and wide side burns. :wacko:

Going to be fun to meet these men of faith in the next life and hear them tell of their experiences in more detail and all those who got saved during their ministry.

I saw the movie this weekend. It was a great experience for me because I was a member of Calvary Chapel when I lived in California and I had attended a few Harvest Crusades and worked one of them praying for people on the field as they came down to accept Jesus. It was a truly special experience and this movie felt a little bit personal. Jonathan Roumie, who plays Jesus in The Chosen, played the part of Lonnie Frisbee and there was a cameo appearance by Paras Patel who plays Matthew in The Chosen. All in all I recommend it.

Would love to see it, but managing theaters for many Seniors is not easy.

Yay so glad to see the movie is doing so well … over here they are extending the viewing.  I’m thinking about seeing it again this weekend if the weather behaves.  The matinees are only $5.00 … it cost more for their  overpriced snacks and drinks.

Have any of you tried to sneak snacks or drinks in?  Its confession time. B-)

:bye: I stuffed my purse with a large gourmet chocolate chip cookie and a bag of raspberry/blackberry gummies that I purchased from Walmart and a bottled water and … no that was it.  But some smuggled in pizza slices and McD orders. :mdrmdr:    There are no ushers or high tech security at this place … cause this is the country.

So do any of you have special cargo pants you wear or a jacket with lots of inside pockets dedicated for the movies? B-)

Or how about the ..

Or the arm sling or fake cast injury?

I stopped getting snacks and drinks because I usually finish them before the movie even starts. :wacko:
