Jamie Cruz There doesn’t seem to be many Christian movies on love and relationships available on the market. “Fireproof” (2008) was a good one, but finding similar titles can be tricky. But fret not, we have still managed to put together a list of marriage movies that you can find on several streaming platforms. Let’s dive in!
The Preacher’s Wife (1996)
The Rev. Henry Biggs is struggling with declining membership in his small Baptist church. The stress begins causing a rift with his wife Julia. At a loss, Henry prays for help, which comes in the form of a debonair angel named Dudley. With Dudley around, the Biggs family will begin to rediscover the most important things that they’ve been missing. This remake of the classic stars Courtney B. Vance, Whitney Houston, and Denzel Washington.

Jakes, stars Morris Chestnut, Taraji P. Henson, and Maeve Quinlan.

War Room (2015)
When her perfect marriage hits rock bottom, realtor Elizabeth Jordan has a chance encounter with an elderly client who changes the course of her relationship.

Unfortunately, none of these Christian movies about marriage are currently featured on Netflix, which is surprising. Netflix is the most popular streaming service, so it’s unfortunate they don’t cater to Christians looking for movies in this category.
