I hope Pentecostals like this movie. Read there are over 400 million of your Dad's faith now--the majority south of the equator in the developing world. If the growth continues, there will be a billion Pentecostals in 15 years. Best thing possible to bring up the developing world is the spread of the Christian faith. Doesn't matter to me who promotes this film--Protestants or Catholics. Just as long as billions see it.

I think the majority of Pentecostals will just be glad a movie has been made about Jesus that remains fairly true to Scripture. Most of us can deal with some poetic license so long as it doesn't diminish Him as portrayed in the Gospels.

It was a Pentacostal, who above all, loved God, who really planted the seed in me to become baptized....it finally happened at age 36.
I didn't join the Pentacostal Church, but I love their enthusiasm for The Lord.
