There’s a great line in the movie where Jodie confronts retired judge and church elder, Althea Cummings, about where God is when life kicks you in the guts. I wrote that line because I’ve lived it myself. For me, it was getting cancer and having half of my face peeled back by surgeons in order to remove a tumor the size of an orange. My wife and I have also survived the loss of a child, experienced bitterness and betrayal during the pancreatic cancer of my mom, and having to clean houses and scrub toilets for years in order to make ends meet after the huge financial cost of my operation. Where is God during times like that? I found my answer, but I wanted audiences to travel that journey with Mac and Jodie on their search for answers. I then point us toward the climax when Althea counsels the unforgiving Jodie by saying, “Life has an expiration date, Jodie, and none of us knows when that is.” I still discover new dimensions of truth every time I watch this movie … and I wrote it! I hope it blesses you as well. - JHT
