At risk of sounding like a parrot, I'm with Kaitlin and Drew. I, like you, found the book at just the right time. It solidified and articulated feelings I had. It came to me right when I needed it. 

The cheese factor is also why I have avoided movies like "Fireproof" and "Courageous". While I probably don't give them enough credit for trying, and while I haven't actually seen the movies... From the trailers I get the impression that they have a crises and then have a cute Jesus fix by the end of the two hours. That's why I've always avoided movies like those. I'd rather spend my money on something like "Higher Ground" (with Vera Farmiga) that looks like it's not going to try to sell me an easy fix. I don't know.

I loved the book, but was actually sad when I heard it was being turned into a movie. Like "A Separate Peace", I felt like the book was such an emotional, internal journey that I don't know how well it will translate to the screen. I don't know. It makes me feel funny. If I get a chance I might see it, or if someone like Drew drags me to it for a film project. But I'm still very skeptical.
