JesusfreakHideout.com 5-Star Reviews

The Jesusfreakhideout.com staff take the "perfect score" rating of 5 STARS very seriously; in fact, we probably take it more seriously than most review outlets. Many of the staff toil far too much over whether a project deserves such a high rating. While, over the years, some staff reviewers have maybe been a bit hasty in bestowing the quintet of red-colored achievements onto a particular project, it's especially true in recent years that it's something we most certainly do not take lightly.

We believe they should be rare.

To help further honor projects that various JFH writers have donned with high marks, we give you the index of all official JFH 5-star reviews (Whether full-reviews, Second Opinion reviews or "Our 2 Cents" reviews)...
