announcer #1: For four days exhibitors are selling sex products at the Sands Expo, yet among all this pornography are two men selling God.
announcer #2: Pastors at a pornography convention, advertising a triple-X web site? Now that'll grab your attention, and that's exactly what they want.
Craig Gross: No, you're not gonna see porn on there, but what you are gonna find, you're gonna find Bible studies, you're gonna find sermons, you're gonna find resources, helps and referrals.
Mike Foster: We just think there's something better than the adult expo, and that's hope of heaven.

I just saw the film and was pleasantly surprised by the treatment of this subject matter. Without giving too much away, it's about two young ministers who have an unorthodox outreach to people affected by the porn industry.
Bill Day does a good job of showing them caught between the multibillion dollar porn industry on one side and the conservative Christian right on the other. A particularly telling scene shows Craig, one of the ministers, outside a porn convention where he's been quietly reaching out to participants, porn stars, etc., being confronted by a placard-wielding, megaphone carrying right wing activist. What a wonderful study in contrasts!
Cleaver, funny, and well-balanced. Approaching a religious theme from outside the religious establishment, as a sympathetic observer. While I don't share the activists' passion for their cause, I commend their approach and recommend the film.
