    One Good Carpenter can build a World of Love

    Now here is a Christmas movie with TRUE family values.

    This is the story of an out-of-town carpenter, who notices a minister "trying" to build a large Nativity scene in front of his church. Jess offers to erect it, as a favor.

    A high school girl needs to compose a story about Christmas, or flunk her class. Jess helps her along, and everyone else he meets.

    This movie moves along pretty slowly (a definite plus for me), and shows the transformation in several people. Spirituality is different from religiosity (spiritual is about feelings ... religion is about rules). This is a feel-good movie.

    Cute. Fresh and uplifting!

    I was pleasantly surprised. It's Easter Sunday and I thought why don't I watch it Easter movie. So I typed in Easter movies on Amazon Prime. This is one of the movies that popped up. I gave it a try. I loved it. I think many people can relate to this character especially the guy who withdraws from society seeking peace of mind. In steps a talkative worldly privileged young lady who pulls him out of his shell. I thought it was a cute sweet film.

    This is about religious freedom.

    Freedom of religion is part of the foundation of the United States of America. People have the right to say Christmas and to say Merry Christmas. The nativity scene at the center of The Perfect Gift is a symbol of the birth of Jesus Christ. When churches have to take down their nativity scenes, it is not right. All churches can put whatever they want on their property. I enjoyed this film because the issue of religious freedom is very important.

    The Perfect Gift

    Not sleeping at night has become a habit lately. 2 am this morning I woke and could not get back to sleep. I decided to get up, make the coffee and get ready to watch the news and get on my computer. But God...

    I decided to turn on TBN and here was this movie. It has to be the best movie I have seen about Christmas. I was so moved and touched. I want to share it with everyone! I learned a lot too. The meanings behind so many of the things we tend to take for granted and very special meanings.

    I love all of Jefferson Moore's and Kelly's Filmworks movies, but this was right on time.

    And of course, God brought it to me in His time.

    Thank you guys for a job well done. God Bless you and your family and

    Merry Christmas!!

    Uplifting with a learning element

    This was a really good family movie. It teaches the meaning behind Christmas and all of the Christmas decorations and lights. The kids loved the movie.
