The Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation’s (@CCEF) Winston Smith recently posted “Fireproof…I Finally Watched It.“
I won’t reveal all here, but to Fireproof’s credit there are still many, many difficulties ahead. Again, the grittiness of real life, even real life in Christ, was accurately portrayed. But the gospel of Christ is shown to be the active ingredient in the redemption of the marriage. Does that mean you have to like the movie, too? No, of course not. It’s just a movie, but if you don’t like it I suspect it won’t be because you thought the gospel was portrayed as an easy solution to life’s problems.
