Too much of everything

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

My husband and I saw this movie tonight together. Take tissues! It's a very sincere and heart touching documentary! We loved how everyone pulled together and showed so much love and supported for each other. We have a son that attends OU, we were so very thankful and blessed that he was safe through the storms. We had traveled to the Norman/Moore area shortly after the tornado to visit him and we're shocked by the devastation. We've both lived in Oklahoma all our lives and have never seen the horrible results of a tornado. It certainly makes you realize they are much, much more serious than we can even imagine. This is a wonderful documentary and I hope everyone gets a chance to see it. It's a great reminder that God is always there, watching over us and helping us through each day.

After texting my daughter-in-law at 2:20 PM on May 20, 2013, to be watchful as storm heading their way, then watching in horror the classic cone shape morph into a monster column heading straight for their area, I fell to my knees asking God to protect our family from this deadly tornado. Within minutes, everything changed. No communication, no knowledge of who was OK. It was the most frightening day of my life. We are thankful to have been spared the heartache of lives lost. And, even though much of their "normal" has changed, there have been many days of hope and promise of better times ahead through our son's family's process of recovery. The creators of this film have captured the essence of God's mercy, grace and love in our lives through trauma and tragedy. You will be touched by these stories, and hopefully find peace and purpose in your own daily walk in this Gift of Life. We were completely blown away (forgive the pun) by many, many, many acts of kindness and compassion from family, friends, and even unknowns after the storm--another testament as to Where Was God. . . He is in and working through each of us! Well done, producers and cast!!

Where was God? When tragedy strikes and the unimaginable becomes reality our humanity cries out... On May 20th in Moore, Oklahoma and everyday of the year, life happens, people are hurt, lives are changed, loved ones die. I know God was with our family that scary May afternoon, holding us down while everything around us went up. He held us together and has kept us from falling apart. He has filled up our lack and supplied us in every possible way. We saw the 'Where was God?' movie tonight and cried and rejoiced along with these ones willing to share their stories of Hope. They opened their hearts, peeling back the different layers of their lives, willing to revisit their pain to show us the beauty of restoration. God was always there, in the midst of every need, just as He still is. He doesn't just save us once and for all... He saves us over and over again. This movie was beautiful and I believe anyone who sees it will walk away feeling encouraged, hopeful and in awe of an amazing loving God!

Oh my goodness!! Get ready to cry, laugh and for your heart to be touched like never before!! Bring your own Kleenex. Some movies make me tear up a bit, but this movie made me sob like a baby. Watching this movie made me realize we all go through storms in our lives. Some are more difficult than others but there is one absolute. Where is God? He's right there with us, embracing us and holding our hand through it all. I love how this movie was unscripted and you could tell people were genuine and spoke form the heart. Despite what all the different families went through, this movie gave me hope and helped me put things in perspective. What an amazing, powerful "must-see" movie. I highly recommend it!!
