Me & my wife rented out the DVD "Jesus Camp" as we've both read a lot about it, mostly negative by the way. In either case we started watching it & our first thought's were "how could they allow these people to film them knowing they were going to make it an ANTI evangelical/charismatic movie?". Then that turned to do "perhaps they didn't know?" but the followup thought was then why no lawsuite? About 10 minutes or so before it ended it hit both us like a bolt of lightning!! THEY were the ones who made this movie thinking it was going to be "positive". Having both of us coming out of the WOF/Prosperity message it was painful watching it due to the shame of having been a part of that movement at one time. In either case I thought it was rightfully slammed.
Another thing that was interesting that the one snippet where they showed Ted Haggard preaching & he says something along the lines of "We know what God's Word say about homosexuality...".
This movie to us showed us just how important strong doctrine is. How important it is to raise your children knowing the Westminster or Heidelberg Catechism's.
Anyways just felt I had to write as it was so disturbing.

I saw the film a while back, but from what I remember it was frustrating, heartbreaking, and infuriating all at once. It illicited many of the same feelings as when I see "Christians" portrayed on that show Wife Swap.
