God's Not Dead Page #2

Synopsis: Freshman university student Josh Wheaton attends a philosophy class, where the uncompromising Professor Radisson requires all students to submit a signed statement that the "God is dead" and never existed. When Josh refuses due to his own Christian beliefs, the Professor challenges him to defend his position that his god, Yahweh, is real, leading to a series of confrontational presentations between himself and the professor, with the class as jury. Josh's plans to go to law school depend on not failing this class. Josh's girlfriend urges him not to throw away his future with this pointless act of defiance. At the same time, Pastor Dave and African missionary Jude attempt to leave town on a trip, but are hindered by comical accidents. Student Ayisha is at odds with her father's conservative religious principles. Businessman Mark acts cynically towards his mentally ill mother, while his journalist girlfriend receives bad news from a doctor.

So life is good.

Hey, look, let's just get

one thing straight.

I ain't maiming nothing.

When I shoot it,

I kill it and then I eat it.

So, you do kill

those ducks?

Of course I do.

What am I gonna do,

cook 'em while they're

still moving around?

That would be cruel.

That'd be bad.

We've been married

for 20 years.

But on the things

that matter, yeah,

I agree wholeheartedly.

Not just because

of the hunting,

As far as my

praying to Jesus,

Temporary.

Even life is temporary.

Jesus, that's eternal.

Jesus said this:

And that's it?

Pretty simple, isn't it?

Thanks for your time.

No thanks, I'm good.

You're good?

Alright.

Who was that lady?

You're beautiful.

I wish you

didn't have to do that.

It's for my father.

He's very traditional.

No one.

Ayisha, I know it's hard

living in their world

and being apart from it,

a world you can see

but can't touch.

There is no one

who worships God,

We must never forget

who and what we are.

That is the most

important thing.

Yes, Baba.

I only insist on this

because I love you.

That I love you?

Of course, Baba.

Can I help you?

It looks like he's

out at the moment.

Well, maybe

that's why he sent me.

We are the ones

and zeros

We are the ones

I could drop

the class, run away,

pretend like

it never happened,

which is what

my girlfriend wants.

By trying to prove

that God exists.

How many people

in that class?

Eighty maybe.

And how many of them

do you think

would ever

step foot in here,

or any other church

for that matter?

Well, none probably.

So, your acceptance

of this challenge,

they'll ever have.

Yeah.

Yeah, I suppose so.

Check out

Matthew 10:
32-33.

What, that's it?

That's all?

Yeah.

If you're still undecided

after that one,

look at Luke 12:
48.

It can't be that simple.

Sure it can.

All you have to do

is decide

whether or not

you're willing to listen.

It's not easy,

but it's simple.

"but whoever

denies me before men,

"Everyone to whom

much was given,

"and from him to whom

they entrusted much,

Sorry I'm late.

That's alright.

Okay, as I was saying--

Amy.

Your results

came back positive.

You have cancer.

I don't have time

for cancer.

I'm too busy.

Evidence

of distant metastasis.

We need to determine

the extent of it.

I know you're

very important

and the world can't

get along without you,

but it's my job

to let you know

that it may be preparing

to do exactly that,

Do you understand?

Hey babe.

More like I forgot

to turn my phone on.

Do you know

what day it is?

Thursday?

Anything else?

The 13th?

Happy anniversary.

You remembered.

Mm-hmm, and

we're gonna celebrate.

The Newsboys.

They're gonna be
