Watch the Christian Movie "Fireproof" (2008)


"Fireproof" is a great Christian movie about the difficulty of modern marriages. Kirk Cameron stars in this highly engaging drama that depicts a firefighter husband and a hospital-working wife who have come to the end of their marriage so it seems. 

The struggles and challenges of marriage are depicted very realistically, despite the fact that most marriages also have to deal with children, addictions (they did show he had a porn addiction), and money problems. Despite this movie portraying two upper-middle-class people, the struggles they have are very relatable for people in modern marriages. 

Another aspect of the movie is they show the man's father as the one who helps him through the marriage struggles, in addition to his friend at work. This is great, yet most Americans don't really have a father like this either. 

Even with a great Christian father to help us, marriages are still very difficult to keep together in our modern world full of temptation, sin, and a culture/society trying to destroy marriages at every level. 

Most Christian movies now depict upper-middle-class families, which is something I think needs to change. What about all of those who are living in their RVs, in mobile homes, or in apartments? The mainstream Christian world seems to only represent people with money and wealth. 

Despite these criticisms, this is a great movie and I would suggest watching it, especially if you are having trouble keeping your marriage together. The main themes and teachings are relevant for all of us who want to keep our marriages and live a Christian life. 

You will have to rent the movie, the video is only a trailer. I don't make any money from sharing it.

May God bless your marriages and keep them in his grace and mercy, in Jesus Christ's name.
