God's Not Dead 2 Christian movie sequel

God's Not Dead 2 trailer and review.

After the massive success of the critically acclaimed and critically panned God's Not Dead (mostly determined by which faith camp the reviewer stood in), comes a sequel sure to generate as much clatter in the Twittersphere, the unimaginatively named God's Not Dead 2.

Have a first look at the trailer below and let us know what you think!  And of course don't forget to subscribe to our channel while you're at it.

What we gather from this trailer is that the film explores the issues surrounding sharing faith and the message of Jesus in the public school system, by following the journey of an unfortunate Christian teacher who shared Jesus' words in the classroom as a response to a student's question.

The writers have taken it upon themselves to stretch this seed of a story to its ultimate end in the high court, where the burden of proof appears to lie with the defendant to prove that God is not dead.

It appears, perhaps wisely, to shy away from some of the more contentious issues which divide both the church and the secular world such as gay marriage and abortion, and instead focusses on the bigger picture.  The key question in God's Not Dead 2 is not so much whether God is alive, but instead to what extent Christians should be free declare their faith in Him publicly and whether or not the teachings of Jesus have value and relevance in a state funded education system.

I'm very much looking forward to the film, I find the debate fascinating and even as a Christian myself I keep and open mind as to whether the state should pay for children to be taught what is right to believe.  What interests me is where that line should be, since every school in every part of the world decides what children are taught, what is right to believe and what isn't, so, what criteria should be met for something to be considered worth teaching?
