What's next for the creators of "Fireproof"? God only knows.

If you haven't seen the movie "Fireproof" yet, see it. It's an excellent film -- and the highest-grossing independent film of 2008. The writers/producers of "Fireproof" are brothers Stephen and Alex Kendrick of Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany, Ga. They have produced three movies so far: "Flywheel", "Facing the Giants" and "Fireproof".

Where do they get their inspiration? You guessed it -- God. Alex Kendrick shared what's next in an interview on LifeSiteNews.com:
The natural question for fans of the films is what's up next. But in answer to that, Kendrick could only respond with his own version of the cliché 'God only knows.' But for Kendrick it's no cliché, it's just a fact. 'I do not have any pre-conceived notions about what all our movies are going to be about,' he said. He described the process as going through a 'season of prayer' where the brothers ask: 'God, what would you have us to do.'

For now, according to the article, God has told the brothers to "Get your house in order" -- they are going to focus on their families.

Fireproof

I recently saw the movie "Fireproof". While the acting in the film isn't superb, the movie's messages are.

The movie really hit home with me -- it shows marriage in a true light. In fact, my marriage currently is at what would be called "Day One" in the movie.

"Fireproof" inspired me to buy "The Love Dare" book. I hope that my following "The Love Dare" book has the same beneficial effect on my marriage that it had on Caleb's marriage in the movie.
