This movie can motivate Christians to prepare for the worldview conflicts in college, but I would not recommend it to persuade atheists. Only a few sentences are a defense of Christianity with information. The characters have many problems in life and in human relationships and often display very strong emotions. An atheist who thinks with logic (not emotions) will probably see this movie as vindication of an idea that Christianity is about emotions and being able to handle problems in life, and that Christians dont deal much with science. For outreach to atheists or agnostics, use a DVD from one of the major creationist organizations. Evolutions Achilles Heels is good for college students.

I love how this young man stood up for his faith in Jesus, stood up for Jesus, in fact. It shows how we could all stand up for Jesus in our everyday lives, no matter the cost. This movie reminds us that that faith can and will be rewarded.

I HAD THIS MOVIE I LONED THIS MOVIE OUT TO A FRIEND AND THEY MOVED AND KEEPED IT SO I HAD TO ORDER IT AGAIN SO I CAN WATCH IT AGAIN WHEN I WANTED TO I HAVE GOD'S GOD'S NOT DEAD 2 AND I LOVED BOTH OF THEM !!!!!!!!!

I loved this movie when I saw it and didn't feel it was "emotional" as much as it addressed the chasm between Christians and atheists. I think its a myth that atheists don't actually have emotions (ok I mean that as a little tongue-in-cheek) , and the movie doesnt deal that much with science.

Realistically, there isnt a movie that is going to persuade athiests or anyone for that matter. Thats the work of the Holy Spirit. A+ movie and I highly recommend it!!

Great story - Many times I've struggled with how to explain or "prove" God to non-believers. This was a great example of how.
