A documentary on the culture wars and religious debate that has received positive reviews, Lord Save Us From Your Followers will be released on DVD April 20, and distributed to Christian retail by New Day Christian Distributors.

Released in theaters last September, the film was written and directed by Dan Merchant, who wrote Lord, Save Us From Your Followers: Why is the Gospel of Love Dividing America?, published by Thomas Nelson in 2008.

In the film, Merchant interviews Sen. Al Franken, former Senator Rick Santorum, William P. Young, author of the The Shack (Windblown Media/Hachette Book Group) and conservative radio host Michael Reagan. The documentary also features news clips of celebrities such as Bono, Bill Maher, Bill O'Reilly, Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart and George Clooney as well as well-known Christian personalties and authors Rick Warren, James Dobson, Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson.

Variety called Lord Save Us From Your Followers "admirably bold," while USA Today described it as "Michael Moore-meets-Monty Python." The Chicago Sun Times said the film "aims to raise the level of religious discourse ... a convincing argument for civil debate," while The Oregonian described the film as "A peace offering, not a battle cry."

The documentary retails for $24.99. Click here for more information on Lord Save Us From Your Followers.
