How far would you go… to defend your belief in God? Present-day college freshman and devout Christian, Josh Wheaton (Shane Harper), finds his faith challenged on his first day of Philosophy class by the dogmatic and argumentative Professor Radisson (Kevin Sorbo). Radisson begins class by informing students that they will need to disavow, in writing, the existence of God on that first day, or face a failing grade. As other students in the class begin scribbling the words “God Is Dead” on pieces of paper as instructed, Josh find himself at a crossroads, having to choose between his faith and his future. Josh offers a nervous refusal, provoking an irate reaction from his smug professor. Radisson assigns him a daunting task: if Josh will not admit that “God Is Dead,” he must prove God’s existence by presenting well-researched, intellectual arguments and evidence over the course of the semester, and engage Radisson in a head-to-head debate in front of the class. If Josh fails to convince his classmates of God’s existence, he will fail the course and hinder his lofty academic goals. With almost no one in his corner, Josh wonders if he can really fight for what he believes. Can he actually prove the existence of God? Wouldn’t it just be easier just to write “God Is Dead” and put the whole incident behind him? GOD’S NOT DEAD weaves together multiple stories of faith, doubt and disbelief, culminating in a dramatic call to action. The film will educate, entertain, and inspire moviegoers to explore what they really believe about God, igniting important conversations and life-changing decisions. 2014 Pure Flix Entertainment LLC

A complete strawman of atheists based on flawed logic from start to finish. This is pure confirmation bias for Christians and misrepresents atheists who don't believe in 'God', rather than hating 'him' as the antagonist does. The film attacks atheism using fallacious and illogical arguments and honestly will have no effect on an atheist such as myself who reached their disbelief through the application of reason.

This is a movie for believers-too corny for unbelievers. The stereotypes are obvious-albeit well known and realistic stereotypes as many people who who were one of those stereotypes and have become christians have testified. The university professors salvation was way too corny, albeit once again a realistic scenario-many people who know they are dying become believers, though the atheists response of course is logical-a dying person will grasp at any straw that offers hope. I was interested in the first half of the film, but then the stereotyping just became too obvious and predictable. I hope Gods not dead 2 learns from the overly simpleness of this film.

It may get boring at the start but when you continue to the end there are some really sad and powerful parts. When the Christian girl got kicked out by her Muslim dad I got a few tears out of my eye. No video has ever done that. This movie made me cried for the second or first time Wow. I don't cry easily to a movie but this movie got me. God is real!
