Primary

Secondary
The film portrays Christianity as a foundational moral framework for its characters, particularly Madea, who frequently references God and scripture. While Madea's methods are often comedic and extreme, the narrative ultimately affirms the importance of faith, family values, and moral accountability, positioning these as positive influences despite the characters' imperfections.
