Why You Should Spend 2 Hours Seeing War Room

Last night I say War Room with my wife and a bunch of friends from my church. I highly recommend it.  Here’s why.

NO SPOILERS

1. It’s a good movie. The story is engaging. The acting is great. The production is superb. The characters are interesting. The plot is relevant. It’s funny. It’s touching. It has an important message. That equals a good movie.
2. It’s got a great message. Here are just some lessons about prayer I picked up while eating pop corn and snuggling with my sweetie.
   1. Prayer works.
   2. Prayer starts at home. There are lots of problems out there, but there are lots of problems with home and family.
   3. The enemy wants to steal your family, your life and your joy.
   4. It’s a war.
   5. It’s a spiritual war.
   6. Your friends and family are not the enemy.
   7. Writing down the promises of scripture helps make them real.
   8. Writing down the things we are praying about documents that God answers.
   9. It’s not that God doesn’t know our problems. It’s that we don’t.
   10. Problems are the doorway to time with God.
   11. Prayer is contagious. Your kids might even catch it.
   12. It’s okay to pray for your spouse.
3. Your other movie choices are about Hollywood, electronic music, two guys walking in the woods, hitmen and escaping from countries you shouldn’t go to in the first place.
4. LSU is playing McNeese and it’s not on TV and the Cajuns aren’t on TV. The Saints already loss.
5. Weather calls for highs in the 90s and 50 percent chance of rain. Are you really going to do something outside?

Okay so if you miss War Room, that’s on you.
