Bobby Daniels, Calvin Hobson, David Alford

Ethan Jenkins and Jake Sanders are pastors who come from very different backgrounds. White and well-to-do Ethan is comfortable in his music ministry at media-savvy suburban mega-church The Rock; Jake ...( read more  read more... )is a street-smart African-American who ministers to the gang members, teen mothers and drug addicts of the urban Second Chance. When the two men are suddenly thrown together in a tough neighborhood and forced to work side by side, Ethan discovers there is no boundary between the streets and the sanctuary. But, can the faith these two men share overcome the prejudices that divide them to give themselves and a struggling urban church a second chance?

    Standard film, mediocre, nothing further, worth one watch or two.

    I actually thought this was a good movie (I had my doubts). The Christianity aspect drew me in, but the story line held my attention.

    A modest Jesus-fish-out-of-water story.

    okay. not the best, but okay. i wished that the ending didn't suck as bad as it did though

    The movie is kind of slow. Michael W. Smith is a much better singer/musician than actor. The movie has an excellent message, but poor ending.

    I watched this movie every day I had it rented (sometimes more than once lol). Not only is M.W.S an excellent singer, but a good actor, too!
