No, because the movie plot apparently ends when Jesus is 4 (the Assumption happened at least 3 decades later.

“The film, based on the New Testament, is a linear ticking clock, high action drama, faith based, youth based bio pic. Under the reign of terror of Herod the Great and against all odds they survive as young parents in one of the most treacherous times in history. It is a part of Mary, Joseph and Jesus’ life that has not been shown on the big screen before. It is her story from her youth to her struggles as a young mother caring for her child, Jesus up to the age of four years old. We will peer into Mary’s life at ages 8, 15, 19 and 27 which will come alive using the power of film to make audiences feel as if they were living through these events with her. As the New Testament leaves Joseph’s age to interpretation, the writers have chosen to keep this a youth based project and our Joseph, depicted at ages 10, 17, 21 and 29; will be Mary’s childhood companion and confidante, a true soul mate, who undertakes willingly his role as protector and guide for Mary and their child.”
Amen brother
Osteen?
No thank you....i smell charlatan
Another instance where the Book is better than the movie.
How do you know this?
1) I've experienced it myself, 2) I've seen others who have experienced this, 3) I feel the Lord is speaking this about the need Joel's ministry is filling in the Body of Christ, 4) other solid and well-respected ministries and churches and pastors from around the world have affirmed Joel's ministry.
BTW, I'm not a gullible baby Christian. I've walked with the Lord for over forty years, am not a babe when it comes to his word, and have been involved in powerful, spirit-filled ministries over the years.
Either way it's OK. God puts each of us in different places and among different people. That's OK, but we must be careful not to go around judging other believers and their ministries, least we unwittingly fall in league with the Accuser of the brethren. We're not of Paul or Apollos but are members one of another. God's people are not meant for contentions and strife but rather to judge this, that we love one another and not cause each other to stumble.
The co-writer of the screenpay will be on Catholic Answers soon (see my link above). I feel very good about this - Barbara Nicolosi is a rock-solid Catholic.
