This movie about the story of Bart Millard, lead singer of the popular band MercyMe, shattered box office records when it raked in 17.1 million in its first two weekends, easily making back its modest budget of 7 million.

Showcasing the singing prowess of John Michael Finley and the lighthearted wit of Trace Adkins, this movie tells the story of how the hit song “I Can Only Imagine” came to be, which, while written in only 10 minutes, took a lifetime to birth.

Although Finley’s portrayal of Bart Millard is noteworthy, it is the transformation of Bart’s father played by Dennis Quaid that drives the theme home: that anyone can receive true forgiveness, no matter what they have done.

This movie stars Mike Vogel as Lee Strobel, a self-proclaimed atheist who sets out to disprove the existence of God. Through months of intense research, interviews with religious scholars and scientists, and his own reading of the Bible, he compiles as much evidence as he can. In the end, however, he can’t seem to refute the reality that God is real.

Through this realization and his wife’s own conversion to Christianity, he comes to believe in Christ and goes on to write the best-selling book The Case for Christ, on which the movie is based. He has since written several other bestsellers and is a well-known expert within the Christian community.

With compelling performances by Erika Christensen, Mike Vogel, and Faye Dunaway, this is yet another film that confirms God’s existence both to believers who need a reminder of God’s presence in their lives, and non-believers.

Sandra Bullock gives an Oscar-winning performance with her portrayal of Leigh Anne Tuohy, whose family’s chance encounter with a homeless boy named Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron) changes their lives forever.

Tim McGraw also stars in the film.

As Michael becomes a part of the Tuohy family, he gets an opportunity to play on his school’s football team, setting him on the path to success.

Grossing 300 million at the box office, this movie teaches that the greatest virtue a Christian can display is love, living out the gospel in daily life.

This is the only movie on the list rated PG-13 for a couple of violent scenes. However, they are mild compared to most PG-13 movies depicting similar content, and their overall objective is to help the viewer better understand Oher’s life and what the Tuohy family’s compassion saved him from.

Overall, the theme of a Christian’s love and the power it has to change lives outweighs the handful of violent scenes depicted.

This movie is great for viewers who are struggling in their faith or waiting on God for answers to their prayers.

Similar to Miracles from Heaven, this movie depicts a father in a small town (played by Greg Kinnear) who must grapple with the reality of heaven when his young son is stricken with a life -threatening illness.

When his son loses consciousness, doctors spring into action and perform an emergency surgery that saves the boy’s life.

Todd celebrates with the rest of his small town, but when his son states that he went to heaven, met some of his dead relatives, and saw Jesus, Todd’s faith is rocked.

Viewers can relate to the questions Todd struggles with such as, “Are the stories in the Bible real?” and “Can someone visit heaven and come back to earth to tell about it?” No matter what doubts viewers might have about faith, they will walk away at least considering that heaven is indeed real.
