My thoughts:
So this is supposed to be for women only. Chonda even says a few times on stage that any men shouldn’t be complaining, because they’re not supposed to be there. But honestly, I didn’t find it too “womany.” I thought it was relatable for anyone!
Her guests were the Benham brothers, Michael Tait, Danny Gokey, Mike Huckabee, and her teacher from childhood.
There are a few theological things I disagree with Chonda on, but I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Not to be cliche, but, I laughed, I cried. I also loved that she sang on it. <3
It was great! If you get a chance to see it in the theater, you should. 🙂

About Jenn: I’m a Christian wife to an amazing man (since 1998) and a stay-at-home-teaching mom to four special & incredible boys (born in 2004, 2005, 2007, & 2009). I’m messy and cluttered, but working on that (really, I am!). I’m a discouraged perfectionist and a classic procrastinator who probably has both ADD & Autism, so I tend to jump from topic to topic (and activity to activity) without notice. My Love Languages are Words of Affirmation and Physical Touch. I’m an INFP who enjoys friends but loves to be alone. I love getting and giving hugs, and encouragement is a Spiritual gift of mine that can too-easily be turned into the weapon of discouragement, if I’m not careful. I enjoy writing, singing, words, drawing, photography, digital creations, and reading. Oh, and pizza, tacos, and steak. Now I’m hungry. That reminds me; I eat gluten free and try to eat organic and avoid white sugar and GMOs as much as possible. I’ve very recently returned to the workforce (after 22 years!) as a teacher in a Christian childcare because I love Jesus and love little ones! I love it!
