Passionate Homemaking

Wow! If you have not seen this movie yet, you need to sup­port this film! My hus­band and I along with some friends went to see this last night, and it is def­i­nitely worth our time and money (movies are not cheap these days). I do not give rec­om­men­da­tions lightly for movies, but this film is worth going to the the­aters and sup­port­ing. I don’t think I have ever cried as much in a movie before as I was greatly impacted by the pro-​life mes­sage of this film.

After going through a sig­nif­i­cant tragedy that tor­ments his life, the main char­ac­ter has a pas­sion to pre­serve life and comes to meet the needs of a woman who is unex­pect­edly preg­nant and des­per­ate. She wants to abort her child, but through the beau­ti­ful story that tran­spires in this film, the mes­sage of hope and life are pow­er­fully con­veyed. It is a beau­ti­ful love story.

It renewed in me a greater love and devo­tion to my little one, strength­en­ing my call­ing as a mother. Chil­dren are such a pre­cious gift, and I have so often, to my shame, not trea­sured my little girl as a gift from God to be nur­tured and loved no matter the cost. In addi­tion it has given me a greater burden to be more in fer­vent prayer that abor­tion might come to an end in our coun­try. Having vol­un­teered in the past at our local Preg­nancy Resource Center, this movie hit home in many points, as I have heard the same excuses given for not choos­ing life, but I am encour­aged to press on in sup­port­ing these min­istries and get­ting behind them more fer­vently with my prayers and sup­port. The cause of pro­mot­ing life is so important!
