Richard Presley If you're looking for answers to the hard questions in life, academics are not the people you want to take advice from. You want to hear from people who have had to face the Hard Questions for themselves and come out on the other side. This movie is about real people in a real tragedy dealing with actual events. This is not a speculative pie-in-the-sky look at circumstances. This is a candid look at the reality of finding God in the midst of tragedy. On the anniversary of 9/11, I sometimes wonder, "If God did that miraculous thing for the person we're hearing from now, why didn't he do that for 3,003 others?" This movie does not provide an answer to that question. It offers a way to look at how God meets everyone's need, not always the same way, but in the end, I bless God for the mercies he does show rather than the ones he doesn't show. And I think that's where God is. He is with us in the horror and the fear and the dark cellar waiting to see what happens after it all blows over and he's with us when we come out. And after. Watch this movie with a box of Kleenex handy. You'll need it.
GREG SARGENT My wife, daughter and I went to see this movie Sunday morning. This was a most incredible experience. The stories of those folks who went through the May 20th, 2013 tornado in Moore, OK; the story of the mother and daughter who lost a husband/father, and a daughter/sister in the 2011 Joplin, MO tornado, who were led to come to Moore to help out and where their journey led them; the story of the couple who lost their only son and how that sacrifice brought new meaning to their lives; and the story of the teacher at Plaza Towers Elementary who suffered tremendous injuries (but saved 3 of her students by laying on top of them),and how her life has changed. These are just some of the stories that are presented in this film. But all are stories of Hope and Faith that need to be shared, stories to never forget. This movie is for everyone to see regardless of faith. What was really memorable was the music score composed by Christopher Clark that really enhanced this powerful film. I hope that this soundtrack is recorded and sold as a CD. I would certainly buy it and listen to it often. I am sharing my experience with this movie and I hope everyone else who sees it shares their experiences with everyone they know also.
achek-5-420107 Where was God? When tragedy strikes and the unimaginable becomes reality our humanity cries out... On May 20th in Moore, Oklahoma and everyday of the year, life happens, people are hurt, lives are changed, loved ones die. I know God was with our family that scary May afternoon, holding us down while everything around us went up. He held us together and has kept us from falling apart. He has filled up our lack and supplied us in every possible way. We saw the 'Where was God?' movie tonight and cried and rejoiced along with these ones willing to share their stories of Hope. They opened their hearts, peeling back the different layers of their lives, willing to revisit their pain to show us the beauty of restoration. God was always there, in the midst of every need, just as He still is. He doesn't just save us once and for all... He saves us over and over again. This movie was beautiful and I believe anyone who sees it will walk away feeling encouraged, hopeful and in awe of an amazing loving God!
Josee Grenier This film was so well made. I felt kind of speechless after viewing this film. Not only was it a documentary that allowed for a glimpse into the events of May 20th 2013 but it was also very artistic and creative. It was captivating the entire length of the film. All the stories of finding hope in the midst of suffering are brought together in a beautiful thread throughout the film. The music score is amazing. The music was beautiful, intense at parts and uplifting. Peoples' stories are genuine and while difficult in a lot of ways, they are also inspiring and hopeful. You will laugh and cry with the people interviewed. Overall you will walk away an amazing perspective of how to find hope in suffering. This is a must see!
