Courage and strength highlight each chapter of this story as we watch
one man lead his family through the most difficult path of all; the
right one. How does a humble man, without pretense or guile, open up
the minds of folks so set in their ways that they cannot bear to hear
any truth but their own?
Where do you end up when your spiritual walk takes a U-turn?

Laced with humor and colored with a dash of southern charm, this amazing drama is sure to be a classic reminder that we must set aside prejudices in all areas of our lives if we truly seek to find the truth. Edward Fudge has diligently dedicated his life to deliberately digging deeper into the scriptures towards a more comprehensive understanding of God. What he finds challenges his core beliefs and forces him to defend the truth in the face of unfamiliar opposition, his own brethren.
Better than any rousing sports flick, this is a fascinating tale; one worthy of at least two bowls of popcorn.
I loved this film. It was so beautiful, hopeful and moving. I have never watched a movie that has changed my life like this one. It not only has a great script, acting and music but the message is so refreshing. I think that this film resonates with what bother Atheists most about mainstream Christians.It is not very often that you get a new perspective of hell and God's grace. What is even more awesome is that this is a true story I am betting the dislikes are from the people Mr.Fudge went up against in real life. Regardless this is a must see and a must share. I will definitely be watching this again. I wish it was in more theaters around the world.

To be forthcoming, I went into the movie theater intrigued to learn
about Edward Fudge's view of hell and the Scriptures that influenced
his newfound conclusions that proved violently unpopular with the
religious leaders of his own brotherhood. But his story was familiar.
Where had I seen it before? As the plot unfolded, what took center
stage for me were the vivid reminders that surprisingly propelled me
back in time 2,000 years ago. For I recalled reading in Scripture how
the Son of God Himself was confronted by the religious leaders of His
day who had "seated themselves in the chair of Moses." As a result,
their lust for power and control blinded them from seeing the incarnate
Truth Who stood right in front of them or accepting the much simpler
message of God's truth. I had often wondered why the Holy Spirit
thought I needed to know about the confrontations between Jesus and the
religious leaders. Just so I would know that it happened? Or to prepare
those who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus for the same thing?
"Hell and Mr. Fudge" answered that question.
A movie with real substance!!

Along with the Bible itself, the story of Edward Fudge encouraged me to desire God's truth and seek it, knowing that truth will be unpopular with those who have become content to hide behind the ritualized religious systems built around the commandments of men. The best line of the movie came from Fudge's dad, who said, "If the Bible says it, it's true--even if the whole world is against it."
How one feels about God's word has no bearing on its truth. Yet, I was touched at how a young Edward Fudge (played by Cody Sullivan) struggled to embrace a church doctrine that would see a loving God torturing the souls of unbelievers for all eternity. Both Sullivan and Astin brought convincing portrayals of deep emotion that kept me connected. Two solid thumbs up!
Mackenzie Astin stars in this autobiographical film on the life of one Alan Fudge who became a minister and then started preaching some most heretical doctrines. Heretical that is to evangelical Protestantism. Fudge after doing much research says that there just isn't any such a place called hell.
That biblical verse on which you see emblazoned on many a Tee shirt, John 3:16 about God so loving the world that he gave his only begotten son, etc. is taken by Fudge to be a blanket pardon. No doctrine has to be accepted, no behavior modified or changed, simply accept the pardon and heaven is your's. As you can imagine that upsets a few pious and self righteous minds.
Fudge went through quite a lot for this belief, eventually according to the movie postscript he left the ministry and now practices law. A profession itself that has many doctrines.
Astin turned in a very good job in the title role. This is an interesting and different Christian film you might want to check out.

This is a story of a man coming to grips with a new reality about the
nature of his God. It is one of the most profound stories ever told
because it uncovers a view of God revealed in Scripture that has been
muddled by age-old false doctrine which is not easily shed by those
whose tradition embraces it. Be warned: if you opt to take this red
pill, your life will be forever changed, your eyes opened and you will
encounter the face of the God who truly is love and who wants to save
and have relationship. You may also encounter the wrath of your fellow
man, reticent to embrace this truth because they choose to follow the
dim light of an orthodoxy that slanders God's grace-full and righteous
nature. As the good book says, the wages of sin is truly death, not
eternal life. Only our Lord Yeshua (transliterated Jesus) has the words
of eternal life, and those are a free gift for those who choose them.
An introduction to the God you'd been yearning for
