I was pleased that weddings, marriage, and love were all celebrated in this Hallmark movie. Still, it felt like it was missing something. Honesty, it feels like all Hallmark movies are missing something.
Why I Like Unsung Hero
When I shared my not-so-kind remarks on The Office last week, I promised to recommend a more wholesome resource to you this week. That resource is Unsung Hero. It’s truly one of the best faith-based films I’ve ever seen, and I hope this post will inspire you to see it for yourself.
Why I Don’t Like The Office
When I had the idea of writing a post about The Office, I wasn’t sure if I should actually do it. I wanted to discuss my thoughts on this TV show, but I realized my thoughts on it weren’t positive. Obviously, I decided to go for it because you’re reading this post. Though I understand the words I share in this post might make you feel uncomfortable, I’m willing to say uncomfortable things if they ultimately help you grow in your relationship with God.
Why I Like (and Don’t Like) Uncharted
As a Hallmark movie junkie, I don’t typically enjoy movies like Uncharted. But I do enjoy actors like Tom Holland—hence why I watched Uncharted. Though this movie had a few flaws, its overarching theme was surprisingly good.
Why I Like (and Don’t Like) Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris
So when I learned about the movie Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris, I was beyond excited to see it. I wasn’t 100% sure what to expect because I hadn’t read the book that it was based on, but I had high expectations about it. And it met my high expectations—for the most part.
Why I Don’t Like “Somebody to You” by Rachael Lampa
“Somebody to You” is a popular Christian song that Rachael Lampa released in 2023. At first, I loved this song. It really resonated with me because—like Rachael—I’ve struggled with insecurity about my popularity and success. The lyrics are vulnerable (which is honestly rare in the Christian music industry). But after I heard her perform “Somebody to You” in concert, my opinion totally changed.
Why I Wish I Hadn’t Watched Mamma Mia!
But regardless of my opinion of Mamma Mia!, it objectively defied the biblical view of marriage. Unfortunately, I can never get the 108 minutes back that I spent watching it; but I hope to save you that time.
Why I’m Not a Fan of Lauren Daigle
Let’s go back to 2018 when Domenick Nati interviewed her and specifically asked if homosexuality is sinful. (Yes, I realize 2018 was five years ago. But I feel more passionate now than I ever have about her response—hence this post). And in essence, she told Domenick, “Well, I can’t respond to that because I’m not God." I can't help but cringe when I think about that response.
Why I Like (and Don’t Like) Surprised by Oxford
Though I’d never read Dr. Carolyn Weber’s memoir Surprised by Oxford, I highly anticipated the release of the movie Surprised by Oxford, which was—yup, you guessed it—based on the book. So when I saw it was coming out in theaters for a limited two-day release, I insisted on going to see it. After spending two hours watching a beautiful yet flawed love story unfold, I walked out of the theater feeling a mixture of bliss and disappointment.
