Yes, a lot of messages to take from the movie, they delivered so well. I love it. Isaiah's growth didn't happen overnight and that's just what we were made to understand; it was a process in his life which turned to a big turnaround for him. His mom, too, didn't give up as she kept committing him into God's hand.
The movie wasn't too spiritual, yes, very simple and touchy. It was a movie worth watching over again.
