This is a very good movie.This movie proves that T.D.Jakes is the only true pastor in the U.,S.A. I highly recommend this film.

This is very much a woman's picture, both in the old-school sense of highly pitched, Lifetime-style melodrama and in its cast of formidable actresses, all of whom deliver powerful performances. Full Review
This is one faith-based film that pulls no punches. Full Review
