I am a Christian, and I did very much enjoy this movie. But I had a big problem with it. It tells a non-Christian that if you become a Christian, you will have all your prayers answered ...and quickly. And we as Christians know that just isn't true. It sets non-Christians who become saved by this film, up for some major disallusionment. They will think that all they have to do is ask God, and all problems will go away. And it just isn't true.
God decides when he wants to say yes and when he wants to say no. Our lives as Christians aren't like what is portrayed in this film. Sometimes we pray for years and never get a yes answer. Sometimes we never get a yes answer. And we never get to understand why, not until we get to heaven.
