They need protection: the church needs a miracle. Jack witnessed a mob murder, so the FBI relocates him and his wife, Julie, to a place the gangsters will never look: he's Associate Pastor at a half-dead church in Fresno. On Jack's first Sunday, the Senior Minister keels over dead in the pulpit. Can a fake minister be the answer to the church's prayers?
Although a low budget production that could've benefitted from a couple more rewrites, it's cute, fun, and great for families within its target audience. However, it misses an opportunity to reach out to a wider audience; one that may benefit more from its message. This is partly to do with its lighthearted tone and characters, and while one of the movie's highlights is not taking itself too seriously, the audience may also be left with the same notion. The actor who plays Jack is charming and fun to watch, and the movie has some funny one-liners. Would reccomend to older Christians and sheltered youth but not to those hungry for something to expand their horizons on what it means to be a Christian from an Atheist's perspective, which I felt was a missed opportunity. The concept is great though, and given the resources would work much better as a television series.
