I like that this movies addresses PTSD and how debilitating it can be. I appreciated how the movie reinforces how we are all broken and dependent on God. The Donnie character is an excellent example of what can happen when we try to take care of things on our own.

5.8Plot summary
A returning war veteran has one more battle to fight: PTSD. The U.S. and its allies have been waging war against terror for over 12 years and SFC Travis Fox and his best friend SFC Ron "Preach" Pearcy are in their sixth combat deployment when the unthinkable happens: Preach and his entire Ranger platoon are killed in a deadly IED attack. Devastated, Travis returns to his hometown. His parents' house is empty now; both were killed in a tragic car accident three years earlier. He browses through pictures of his parents and his eyes fall on the handcrafted necklace he had made in Saudi Arabia, encircling his mother's neck. He searches his parents' belongings from the accident and the home, but fails to find the necklace. The next day Travis starts his search for answers and discovers an unsuspecting obstacle: PTSD. During his journey he starts to rediscover his faith in God, but a devastating and painful secret hidden from him for years by his best friend Donnie threatens his renewed faith, restores his guilt, and causes him to consider ending his life.

The message was very beautiful.
So the acting on some of the members of the cast could need some tweaking but overall the mesaage and his story was very sweet, the core of it was what got my 10 stars, enough to make me shed a tear

As a Christian, I wanted to like this more than I did. The pastor is annoying because he can't seem to have a conversation without interjecting religious phrases into the discussion. "Dr. Tiffany", when faced with a soldier experiencing PTSD, also resorts to religious appeals rather than employing any of her skillset as a Ph. D. in psychology. Very few Christian movies are anything more than evangelism appeal - it would be nice to see a fuller, more realistic story that incorporates the true ups and downs of life, and the difficulties of dealing with life on life's terms.
