By God's Grace (A Christian modern day spin of A CHRISTMAS CAROL) 2014

From a meagre beginning to owning a thriving air charter service, the Taylors devoted their lives to their children Chris (Cameron Deane Stewart) and Grace (Savannah McReynolds). Raising them with a solid foundation of faith, they taught them through example to love others and give to their community. Their passion was volunteering and financially supporting the local youth shelter. However when tragedy strikes, Chris turns his back on his faith and the shelter. His choices are leading to destruction unless he changes his ways. Will an unlikely visit save what is about to be lost? Written by Thinkpositive

No one in this film is familiar to me...at least that's what I thought.  I was wrong.  I have seen some of them in other projects, but maybe it's just the first time I really noticed them.

The story, as the poster states, is an adaptation of A CHRISTMAS CAROL, but instead of three Christmas spirits, the one who journeys with him to the past, present, and future is his little sister, Grace.

The movie is well acted.   Maybe it's not the best of the best, but it surely did look natural...some of the acting did appear forced, but not too much.

Tragedies make or break us, so what do we choose?  It's easier to get angry at everyone than looking at the bright side, I know.  Chris lost everyone who mattered that he shut everyone else out, not thinking of the repercussions.  

I like this approach.  It is such a beautiful movie.

Hope those who have not seen this yet would be able to do so.  

Thanks for your time.
