Film to be screened

An advance screening of “God’s Not Dead” will be at 6 p.m. Sunday at the Performing Arts Center in Marion.

The screening will be sponsored by Marion Ministerial Alliance and serve as a fundraiser for the Helping Hands program.

“This is without a doubt the best Christian movie I have ever seen,” Christian Church pastor Carl Helm said. “Every high school student should see this movie because they are going to see this type of thinking when they go to college.”

The movie presents the story of a college freshman who is told to disavow his belief in God for a philosophy class. When he refuses, a battle of intellect and will ensues.

Helm said free-will donations are encouraged. Child care will be provided starting at 5:30 p.m. Marion Presbyterian Church, 610 E. Lawrence St.
