#WATCH PASSION OF THE CHRIST ON NETFLIX MOVIE#
The thing that makes any movie good, Christian or not, is realistic relationships that resonate with us. This is a great movie if you’re in the mood for something touching and uplifting that leaves you feeling warm and fuzzy. I’m not usually a fan of feel-good movies, but this one is unique in that it offers a glimpse into the painful realities of life with a disability without making the protagonist an object of pity. It tells the story of life-long surfer and Christian, Bethany Hamilton as she loses her arm in a shark attack, seeks refuge in Jesus, and learns to surf not in spite of her loss but because of it. Soul SurferĮveryone loves a great inspirational movie, and everyone loves a true story. Rated PG for violent content/some intense combat scenes. However, it balances pain and beauty surprisingly well for the Christian equivalent of a chick flick. God Bless the Broken Road isn’t a masterpiece, per se.

It’s something I might watch again with my mom the next time the boys are out of the house and we have the night to ourselves.
#WATCH PASSION OF THE CHRIST ON NETFLIX DRIVER#
I was skeptical of a movie named after an overplayed Rascal Flatts song, but the story of a widowed mom falling in love with a racecar driver as she grapples with her faith is the epitome of a nice, cheesy, feel-good movie. This animated portrayal of Joseph’s journey from home to slavery to second-in-command of Egypt was one of my favorites growing up and is still one of my favorites as a young adult. I can’t count how many times I heard the story of Joseph in Sunday school growing up, but that didn’t make me think Joseph: King of Dreams was boring. Maybe not all at once, but there is something for everybody! Then you can get right back to binging The Great British Baking Show. Five Best Christian Movies on NetflixĪfter pouring through Netflix, here are five notable Christian films that any member of the family can enjoy. If you guessed anything higher than zero, you’re wrong. And guess how many of my movies are actually on Netflix? I was quite proud of my tidy little list, but there was one problem: This is an article about Christian movies on Netflix. I eventually came up with five Christian movies that I loved: Imagine, Risen, Miracles from Heaven, The Case for Christ, and The Passion of the Christ. So, when I finally decided to take on this list, I had a bit of an internal panic, because how on earth was I supposed to come up with not one, not two, but a true proper list of Christian movies that were enjoyable enough to watch for the average 90 minutes, for each movie? It’s unfortunate that often times the Christian movie scene lacks a proper budget to fulfill every critic’s needs.

In other words, I don’t personally like Christian films. Do you know what the average Christian movie tends to look like to me? It looks like a few flat characters, a semi-acceptable plot, and some surfaced themes from the gospel all on top of each other masquerading itself as a huge blockbuster movie.
