Facing the Giants is the second full-feature motion picture written, produced and directed by Sherwood Productions (a ministry at Sherwood Baptist Church in Georgia).
All I can say is…What a movie.
It’s an action-packed, family-friendly drama about a high school football coach who draws up a new game plan for his team and himself. And it must be good because it’s a football movie and Jennifer Loved it… (it also kept the attention of our 5 and 6 year old children)
Here’s the story line:
In his six years of coaching, Grant Taylor has never had a winning season. Even the hope of a new season is squelched when the best player on his Shiloh Eagles decides to transfer schools. After losing their first three games of the season, the coach discovers a group of fathers are plotting to have him fired. This combined with pressure at home, Coach Taylor has lost hope and feels like he is Facing the Giants.
It’s through these challenges that Coach Taylor finds a purpose bigger than just victories. Daring to trust God to do the impossible, Coach Taylor and the Eagles discover how faith plays out on the field and off.
This movie boldly states the truth that With God, All Things Are Possible.
