Roadmap Genesis Movie Review + Giveaway

Disclosure of material connection- I received a copy of the movie via Flyby Promotions in exchange for my honest thoughts. I was not required to write a positive review and all opinions are 100% my own.

About the movie-

Roadmap Genesis is a film documentary that makes the case that the Book of Genesis is a roadmap containing guideposts on how to live a productive, fruitful, and fulfilling life that will help our society lift itself out of its current decline and return it to prosperity, promise, and accomplishment.
When Filmmaker Nolan Lebovitz found himself at a crossroads in his life, he knew he had to choose between continuing to make the Hollywood suspense thrillers that were his livelihood and trying to make the world a better place for his new young family. After much struggle, he found his answer in the Book of Genesis.
He decided to combine his love of the Book of Genesis with his passion for filmmaking and set out to travel the United States, interviewing clergy and public figures in order to build an undeniable argument about the continued importance of the Book of Genesis as guiding force in our Judeo-Christian country.

Roadmap Genesis invites Americans of all faiths to engage in a dialogue about the relevance of the Bible in the modern age. Through interviews ranging from Gov. Mike Huckabee of Fox News Channel to Rabbi David Wolpe, from Alan Dershowitz to the Archbishop of Chicago Cardinal Francis George, from Erick Stakelbeck of the Christian Broadcasting Network to Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis and the Creation Museum, and many, many more, Nolan explores the rules that God has set forth to help us maintain a successful and working society.

My thoughts-

Roadmap Genesis explores the question is the Bible still relevant today? Can we apply the book of Genesis to be our guide book for how to live? This was an interesting documentary because people from all walks of lives and different religions were interviewed. Many of the people being interviewed on the streets identified as atheist which just completely saddens me that so many people are not exposed to or are completely against religion...but that is not the point of this movie. The point is that we can take what is written in Genesis and use that as a guide book to get things back on track. Somewhere along the line we have lost touched with how God intended for us to live and I think Lebovitz is on to something. The insight added by a plethora of public figures adds even more depth to this insightful documentary. I think anyone who wants to see a change happen in this world we live in will find Roadmap Genesis an interesting and thought provoking documentary.
