Product Description
Whether someone is Atheist, Agnostic, Muslim, Hindu, Jewish, - or yes, even Christian -all can identify at times with the cry, "Lord, Save Us from Your Followers!" Fed up with the divisive bumper sticker mentality overtaking America, director (and follower) Dan Merchant donned his Bumper Sticker Man suit and set out on the daring search for meaningful dialogue and the true face of faith. Appearing in the film:Senator Al Franken, Dr. Tony Compolo, Former Senator Rick Santorum, Sister Mary Timothy, Paul Young, Bono, George W. Bush, and many, many more.
Customer Reviews
“ He examines how Christ taught people to love, forgive, and do for one another, and how that message has been corrupted (by religion, by politics, and by corporations.) ”

This is information that most Christians need to know to be true salt and light to everyone around them. The message of Love, Compassion, Non-Judgment, Inclusiveness, and Hope is what everyone needs to hear. I recommend it for the Secular viewer, the Christian viewer, and anyone who is more interested in making this country into a nation of people who honestly care about each other regardless of their creed, race, sexual orientation, politics, or opinions. Let's allow love to create the world we all want to live in!

Bono and Campolo in the same movie... what's not to love?!? This movie is a must-watch for all Church leaders. Regardless of whether you agree with its conclusions, it will challenge you to look at ministry in a different light.

Filmmaker Dan Merchant has unwittingly turned modern day prophet as he allows all followers of Christ (or followers of no one at all) to enter the crucial discussion (not argument) concerning "Why is the Gospel of love dividing America?" With a cutting wit and poignant insight Dan allows voices of all social, political and theological bent a turn at airing their individual perspective on all things religious. In the end, the film (and book) opens the opportunity for each one of us to join this badly needed internal and public conversation with the Grace and respect of Christ intact.

I am an agnostic and found this documentary to be absolutely fantastic. Long overdue view of Christianity. Very important to begin to speak to each other.

Not what it says on the tin.
Despite four or five moments that made perfect sense for anyone of any faith or none, overall I felt this film was disingenuous. Read more

Gets the point across.
Drive home the theme that we need to revitalize the central oint of Christianity of Love, worship, and evangalism.
However, a bit too much. Too long.

Lord Save Us From Your Followers ... with a decidedly Christian slant
Great title ... one that really dupes the viewer into thinking this might be a unbiased, non-religious documentary. Read more
