Facing the Giants

Facing the Giants is the story of Grant Taylor, a high school football coach with a mediocre record. After several poor seasons, the Shiloh Eagles are considering replacing him as head coach. This is not the only problem Taylor is facing; his car is breaking down, the players' fathers are trying to get him fired, and he discovers that he is the reason that his wife Brooke cannot become pregnant.

In order to find a solution to these problems, he prays to God for help. He creates a new coaching philosophy and decides to praise God after each game, no matter what the result. At the same time he guides and urges each one of his players to give the maximum effort, and motivates them to believe they can win under God's guidance. From that point on, he loses only one game but eventually goes on to win the state championship. His prayers for children are also answered when he and his wife have two children of their own.

From my perspective this movie was very interesting because we could learn a lot from it. We always have to believe that there is nothing impossible, and with God we are going to be successful persons. If we want to achieve something we have to put all our effort, being perseverant, fighting, never give up, and we must never forget that God is with us every day. By putting this in practice we are going to achieve whatever we want in our life.
