very touching movie

I also found this movie after watching the inspirational short film of death crawling, and it touched me very much because it resonated.
The protagonist encounters various unsatisfactory things in front of him, and he feels that he is gradually approaching a low point, until the school is discussing to dismiss him, which can be said to have reached the lowest point. My own situation is very similar to the protagonist, and I feel that everything is not going well: work is not going well, even a small matter will have twists and turns; family is not going well, changing the faucet will ruin the water pipe; I have no passion and no goals all day long. , feeling prone to schizophrenia or major depression. 80% of the energy is spent on how to avoid unpleasant things, how to get through this year, and hope for a miracle to happen. . . . . . Sometimes I even think it's boring to live. . . . . .
In fact, religion can be regarded as a kind of carrier, just like some people believe in Buddhism and some people believe in the universe, the principle is the same: it is to believe that there is a mysterious power (or energy) that controls, supervises and helps us, and we must be positive. If you have a positive, optimistic and enthusiastic attitude, believe in yourself, and abandon all beliefs that hinder your success, you will enter a virtuous circle, which will bring a series of positive effects, allowing you to enjoy life more naturally and normally and enjoy success. Gratitude for everything including failure.
In short, this movie is good, changing our attitude can change our life.

Facing the Giants quotes

  • J.T. Hawkins Jr.: You act like you gonna miss before you even kick the ball. See, we're gonna have to change your whole kicking philosophy. Now see, you kick it wide left, or wide right, but that ain't gonna get you home. The ball has got to go through the middle.

    David Childers: I know, coach.

    J.T. Hawkins Jr.: No, no, no. You don't. Now what does scripture say about this? Scripture says wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction. And many that be there find it. Now to us; that's wide left, and wide right. But narrow is the gate and straight is the way that leads to life, and few that be there find it. Anybody can kick it wide left and wide right. My momma can kick it wide left and wide right. But that ain't gonna get you home. It don't have to look great. It don't have to look smooth. It can look like a dying duck. But the ball has got to go through the middle. Now David, you gonna have to choose the narrow way. Cause that's the only path where you gonna get your reward.

  • Grant Taylor: I'm a bit nervous. It's the championship. It's kind of surreal for me.

    Mark Richt: Well, I can promise you. I don't care what level of ball you're coaching; it's surreal when you make it to the championship game. And Grant, I can just tell you: I'm so proud of you and what you've done. I've been reading about the team and where you've gone, and more than anything else I'm just proud of the fact that you finally learned to win the big one.

    Grant Taylor: Well, we haven't played them yet.

    Mark Richt: No, you won the big one when you accepted Christ. And now that you're teaching these guys and ministering to them, I think it's just fantastic.

    Grant Taylor: I got it. These players got it.

    Mark Richt: Well, I can promise you: win or lose this game, you guys are champions.

    Grant Taylor: I appreciate that.

    Mark Richt: But while you're here, you might as well win it, eh?

    Grant Taylor: I will try my best. You know, this team we're playing: they're huge, they're fast, they're strong. I just don't want my players to be afraid.

    Mark Richt: Well, in God's word He said 365 different times, "Do not fear." Now if He says it that many times, you know He's serious about it, don't ya?
