more Hosea,less teens
A sometimes weird but cool Story
Most of it was quite... weird. It has a whole story arc of a bunch of church kids going on an outing, with a modern worldly girl who has to tag along. The actors in these parts of the movie are pretty bad. It is also not very well written, with lots of lines that sound very unnatural.
The best parts of the Movie start when one of the characters starts telling the story of Hosea. Hosea's story is very cool. He refuses to give in to others demands and insists on telling the word of God to the people, even though almost all of his words are harsh and the people hate them. He took a wife who was not faithful and she betrayed him more than once. But in the end when she was being sold as a slave he bought her back and showed her and others how amazing love can be.
Comparison: biblical story of Hosea vs. Amazing Love
Bible: Hosea's wife most likely is an active prostitute that repeatedly sells herself, and when God tells him to buy her for a time he literally means for him to buy her as other men do.
Movie: Hosea's wife simply has a roving eye, and doesn't necessarily repeatedly sell herself, but instead simply is bribed with nice things from one man. When that man was done with her he sold her into slavery, from which Hosea bought her back, saving her from a worse fate.
