(c)1979
I'm back and I am going to try to post more frequently. To try to make up for my absence, I've uploaded this, an EXTREMELY rare Christian film from 1979 called "Ordinary Guy"; focusing on a guy named, well, Guy who - after fully committing himself to the Lord as opposed to having grown up "going through the motions" of Christianity - spends the movie on how God could use him even if Guy never entered any "limelight" ministry (my dad often mentioned this movie being something he saw that ministered to him as a new Christian, and I found a copy on Amazon a few years back and got it for him as a Christmas gift).
P.S.: You might notice something a little different. Starting with this upload, I've got a little "CTVA" tag on the video (began doing the same with uploads on the HRTVFan2 channel a few months ago) in place of what I had been using at the beginning and ending.

This movie had an impact on my life many years ago. I enjoyed watching it again. It made me think about how I serve the Lord who saved my soul. Love it! Praise God!

No way! Thank you for putting this on here. We can't get a current copy of it and I want to share with my kids. We would watch this every year at church camp. Shouts of "dump Donna" were the fun part of watching😂

I have always loved this movie at church (early 80s and then renting the vhs tape in 90s to see it at home) that is the reason why i am involved in missions, traveling to, translating for teams, U. S., Ukraine and México, where i live and i am from! Bendiciones, Abencoes, blessings, Slava Bogu! P.D. and now here i am watching it again after more than 20 years!!!

I have thought of this movie hundreds if not thousands of times in my career as an urban youth worker. The scene of him walking through the empty gym then getting shot comes to mind when I close up the youth center I started and / or the job center i run now. It would be an honor to have a life like his. This is probably the single most influential movie in my life.

I'm 66 years old, I never saw this movie until today 5/25/2024 I really did enjoyed this movie. I was happy to see that Guy & Frieda ended up together, but not exactly what I imagined.

This was my favorite childhood Christian movie it brings back good memories :-) thanks for uploading this! So corny and cheesy these days but still a good message. Would be great if they remade this movie and gave it a modern update :-)

Actually I love the way it is. People had a sincere caring attitude about Life then mainly because they say Knew who gave us a Moral Compass and like said there is a visible difference between Christianity and the world. Now in most cases people cannot tell the difference and WORSE openly Reject the Truth accusing you of being on drugs or fornication or a fake anything but a real Christian.

Sure, some of the things are "dated" on this movie (hair, styles, etc.) but its a terrific movie, and displays a solid Christian message. Great movie!

A few things I wonder about as an adult watching this. . . Why couldn't he have accepted the offer overseas? He could have had an opportunity to serve God just as much overseas as he did in the states lol he very well could have passed up 2 blessings in one with that offer. Also why when he hears gunshot and fighting outside the school why didn't he lock the doors and wait it out and call for help from the police but instead he foolishly walks out in the midst of fighting and dies. Just several things it see and wonder why he didn't see it like this or stay inside where it's safe. Lol I know it's just a movie but man.
