    A mysterious stranger brings both spiritual comfort and a certain level of distrust to a small community in this drama based on the spiritual best-seller by Joseph Girzone. A mysterious man named Joshua (Tony Goldwyn) arrives in the small Midwestern town of Auburn sometime in the late 19th century. Joshua sets up a carpentry shop in Auburn, and soon develops a reputation for his kind and unselfish nature; after bad weather nearly destroys a church in the town's African-American neighborhood, Joshua offers to help repair the building, and has soon persuaded much of the community to offer their support, including Father Pat (Kurt Fuller), a priest at Auburn's Catholic church. Father Pat's superior, Father Tardone (F. Murray Abraham) is also struck by Joshua's talent, charm, and humble desire to help others, and asks him to carve a new statue of Saint Peter for their church. However, while much of the town is following the good example set by Joshua, when people begin to ascribe supernatural powers to the town's new carpenter, Father Tardone begins to become suspicious, and wants to know who Joshua really is and what he really intends to do in Auburn. Joshua features an original song score by popular contemporary Christian musician Michael W. Smith. Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

    July 03, 2004: I'm a professor of ancient history at a major state university, with many scholarly publications,and I'm Jewish, so you might not think I would have much to say about this movie--but I loved it! As far as I can tell, it accurately presents the Message of Jesus,--in the sense of God is Love--and does so in a very moving and convincing way. I ran into this film on cable by accident, and couldn't stop watching it. I've highly recommended it to my Catholic friends--and not only to Catholic friends. Just great.

    January 14, 2004: My husband and I were in video rental store just browsing around and I came across this movie. I'd never heard of it and after we read the synopsis, decided to rent it. We are so happy we did!! If anything came close to depicting Jesus in modern day, this is it! Great job to all who were involved in the making of it. Thank you, thank you!!
