Leave your thoughts about God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness.
| Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayGod's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness, directed by Michael Mason, is less strident than the two surprise hits that preceded it, but it still tells a programmatic story, rooted in presumptions. |
| TheWrapDave WhiteAs handsomely mounted, TV-movie-quality cinema goes, “Light in Darkness” is at once the best looking, most coherent, and least histrionic of the franchise. |
| VarietyOwen GleibermanThis one, taken on its own terms, isn’t bad in a TV-movie-fodder-as-parable way. |
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckWhile God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness proves less fiery in its preaching than its predecessors, it's also a significantly duller offering. How could it not be, considering that its main plot element involves a courtroom battle over real estate? |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Josh TerryAltogether, God's Not Dead: A Light in Darkness means well, but it needs to drop the editorializing, streamline its story and let its message stand on its own. |

| Austin ChronicleSteve DavisTo its credit, this third GND installment earnestly attempts to give some degree of lip service to diverging perspectives on the socio-religious-political scale without too much proselytizing, although there’s never any question about who’s side it’s on. |
