Can anyone recommend any good Christian films NOT about the rapture?

I went to my local Christian book store and roughly 70% of the films there are about the rapture. I am a Christian, but I don't believe in the rapture, so it's pretty frustratingto find a good Christian film that doesn't involve the rapture. Heck, my wife and I watched Unidentified and thought it was OK until the last 10 minutes when they threw they rapture into it.
So, I ask, can anyone recommend any good Christian films that DON'T involve the rapture?

Mercy Streets-awesome!

Hidden Secrets-also awesome, not on dvd yet though

Love Comes Softly Series-really good.

Amazing Grace-amazing:)

Hometown Legend-one of my favorite movies ever it's by Jerry B. Jenkins who also did The Left Behind series-but don't worry, the movie has nothing to do with The Rapture. It's a football movie.

The Ride- very cute and heartwarming.

Hope that helps!

There's the movie, Joseph (made in 2000 I think. I love this film. It is, of course, about Joseph and his struggles and how God had a plan for him...

Then there is "Walking Across Egypt". It's a Christian Family Film (it was also a book by Clyde Edgerton by the same title). I love this fim myself, it is funny and brilliantly done.

Earlier I referenced www.christiancinema.com - I wanted to add, a number of those movies can be found at NetFlix, and I've seen some at Blockbuster, too.

The makers of Flywheel and Facing the Giants have a new movie coming to theaters soon, called Fireproof.

Here are some more:

The Ultimate Gift

Last Flight Out

Lay It Down (about drag racing)

The List

None of these are about the Rapture.

Wait, there may be a little confusion here. Jesus was not a character in Sparticus. Sparticus died before Jesus was born.

I think you are referring to Ben-Hur. The scene where Jesus stares down a Roman soldier was in Ben-Hur.

"Quo Vadis" with Peter Ustinov is good. That's a movie with an "antichrist" but no rapture. Check it out. Based on a work that won the Nobel Prize.
