Movie Reviews of Candle in the Dark
Movie Review: Candle in the Dark is a must see!
Summary: 5 Stars
This video is a true snapshot of what William Carey and his family went through as missionaries to India. It honestly shares how William Carey, the shoe maker and a great visionary in his time took seriously God's call upon his life to proclaim the good news of God's kingdom to the people of India, and courageously did it despite the reluctant spirit of both his wife and his church. Knowing that this is indeed based on a true story really catches your breath. It is the best story of a Christian life well lived I ever seen.
Summary of Candle in the Dark
STUDY GUIDE AVAILABLE IN .PDF FORMAT ON WEBSITE. He sailed in 1793 to India with a reluctant wife and four children to bring the message of Jesus. There he encountered so much hardship it is amazing he did not abandon his mission and go home. But he stayed for over 40 years.One issue that tormented him was "sati"?the burning alive of widows when their husbands died. He would not rest until this practice was stopped. Facing insurmountable odds, he ?plodded? on to influence the abolition of "sati" and to become the revered "Friend of India" and "Father of Modern Missions."
He oversaw more translations of the Bible than had been done in all previous Christian history combined. Life was never easy for Carey. But he simply refused to quit, even when a devastating fire destroyed years of his literary work. His legacy has inspired countless others from his own day to the present. William Carey shows dramatically how a life dedicated to God and obedient to His calling can make a profound difference in the world. Starring Richard Attlee, Lynette Edwards and Julie-Kate Olivier. A Christian History Institute Production.
