Kirk Cameron’s Saving Christmas Review - Divine SINema Series - 095
Kirk Cameron’s Saving Christmas is our movie for this edition of Divine SINema. Allen and Mona take the week off and Adam and Dylan step in to discuss with Jeff this truly awful Christmas film.
Through a conversation with his sister, Kirk learns his brother-in-law, Christian, is not into Christmas this year. We come to find out that he is struggling with the fact that Christmas Trees, Santa and presents have hijacked Christmas from Jesus and the Bible. After finding that Christian has retreated from the party to his car, Kirk begins a conversation with him that will change everything. They exchange “witty banter” and Kirk gives several separate mini sermons dealing with the Biblical justification of the Christmas tree and historical justification of Santa. Ultimately Christian’s Christmas spirit is restored and the party kicks into high gear.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
