About the Film
“Heaven Sent” is a romantic comedy about re-finding love later in life and rediscovering joy after loss. It's a dynamic and heartfelt story about love at different stages of life. Featuring Karen Abercrombie from War Room, An Angelic Christmas, and more and Charlene Tilton from Dallas, this is an all-star cast!
My Thoughts
This film is so heart-warming and will have you cheering for every one in the cast. There are so many relatable themes, especially the feeling of trying to make your own life in your twenties and the making peace with getting older and finding new purpose and happiness in your fifties and sixties. It pulled me in from start to finish.

You'll likely connect with these Bible Verses throughout the show:
- "Love is patient, love is kind.It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." – 1 Corinthians 12:4-7 (NIV)
- “We love because he first loved us.” – 1 John 4:19 (NIV)
- “Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.” – Colossians 3:13-14 (NIV)
