Actually this should be required as there are parts that seem unbiblical. One could ponder the spiritual contexts in the story for metaphors or figurative terms or for comparative Biblical analysis requiring critical and complex thinking. She is a board certified orthopedic surgeon so there are medical terms sprinkled throughout the book as it relates to her training or her injuries which add to the text’s complexity.

Neal writes in a straightforward fashion that is easy to grasp. I read this particular piece in an electronic format on my Kindle app and found it quite quick and easy to read (I like to do this in bed at night!). Neal shares what she believes are talks with Jesus, discussions with angels, angelic encounters of another kind, and her miraculous retrieval, recovery and rehabilitation including important life lessons she gleaned.

However, on the day in question, she and her boat happened to become wedged under dangerous, turbulent waters where she drowned. Neal was proficient in whitewater kayaking and was in the company of veteran whitewater trainers. Although she claims a couple of near death encounters at different times in her life, the kayak experience was the most profound.

#FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE USED IN I LOVED HER FIRST BY HEARTLAND MOVIE#
I would highly recommend this movie because everyone can relate to it on some level and that increases it’s entertainment value as well as it’s comedic value. With a rating of PG for Parental Guidance, this movie really is for all ages but parents should be cautioned that there is the allusion to drinking or being influenced by drugs (but it gets dealt with in humorous ways). There is also the inspirational layer where characters are encouraged to trust in the Lord, find strength in God, and realize their value before Him. Comedy can add to complexity because there is physical comedy involved in the movie as well as subtle hints which one may miss (certainly young kids would miss) if not careful. Adding to the fun (and complexity) are the twists and turns of events as they unfold. It’s a funny movie anyway, but being a parent will give one special insight and understanding that others may not have (so being a parent provides some background). I’ll tell you what kind! A film filled with hilarious moments that ring true for every parent, especially moms.
