We will soon buy Fireproof! and add it to our family collection. I am really glad that we watched this together as a family, at home. I watched my kids reactions to specific scene's in the movie. We talked about what was going on, and why throughout the movie. (This drives some people crazy!) I was stunned when I realized that my 9 year old boy seemed to understand the negative effects that pornography could have on a marriage. I do not want to be a killjoy here, and explain the scenes, but as my 9 year old son spoke, I was so glad that we could talk openly about a tough subject. We talked about how the true change came when "the husband gave up the expensive stuff" and put God first. Excellent family movie! Because one of the main characters is a firefighter, some scenes could be scary for a sensitive kid. More movies need to have messages like Fireproof!
