Reception

ChristianReview.com rated the film at 4 out of 5 stars stating: "Like A County Song is a great movie. It looks good thanks to some good lighting, camerawork, and post production color correcting, making this a movie that would play well on both at the theater and on a TV screen."^[5] The Dove Foundation said "This movie clearly illustrates the realities of life but also the hope one has in following God."^[6] Christian Cinema also gave the film 4 stars out of 5^[7] stating "Make no mistake, this is a story about healing, forgiveness and redemption..."^[8] Ted Baehr of Movieguide rated the film with three stars out of four saying "Like A Country Song has many positive, faith affirming moments. It shows the freedom that forgiveness gives, not just in forgiving others of their mistakes, but accepting Christ’s forgiveness of our mistakes. A beautiful portrayal of the Gospel, repentance and reconciliation are properly displayed. Light caution is still advised for Like A Country Song, due to some minor violence and heavy drinking."^[9]
