Lynn Brandt (Josie Bissett) escapes an abusive relationship taking her son Thomas Brandt and daughter. She applies for the Paper Angels Program with The Salvation Army. Thomas gets bullied at school when he tries out for the basketball team. Kevin Morrell (Matthew Settle) loses his biggest client and his wife is pregnant with twins. He become Thomas' basketball mentor. With pregnancy and money troubles hanging over them, his wife Jenny nevertheless convinces Kevin to pick two names from the Paper Angels.
I like this. It's a sincere Christian film with good messages. The bullying is a bit over the top but I do like Kevin's solution. I would have played into the premise and put out a tip jar. It would be a sarcastic middle finger to everyone. Thomas decides on something more Christian and more giving. I like it. It's 1000x better than my idea. It's very Christian but it doesn't hit the audience over the head with it. For the non-religious, I do have to warn you that they go to church. I don't think most people care. I do want better music. That matters a lot. All in all, these are good messages no matter your personal belief.
