Christian Mingle The Movie - A Divine SINema Review - 099

Irenicast - A Progressive Christian Podcast

Christian Mingle the Movie is about what you’d expect from a faith-based romantic comedy. The story follows Gwyneth (Lacey Chabert) as she maneuvers through the dating scene with no luck. On an especially discouraging evening, she decides to open up an account with an online dating site for Christians. There is only one problem: she is not a Christian. Determined to make love work she pretends to be something she is not for a man named Paul (Jonathan Patrick Moore). Eventually, everything falls apart and just when she feels she has lost everything, she finds God.

Hear Jeff, Adam and Dylan’s take on this movie, including how they rated it on a scale of one to thirty pieces of silver. How did Christian Mingle the Movie fair? Listen to find out.
