While I give this update on what's new this weekend on TV, I'm also watching the news and seeing the devastation of Hurricane Florence. My heart certainly goes out to all who are affected by this storm, while I pray for everyone's safety. May everyone in it's path, seek and find shelter.

Please take care everyone. You're in my prayers.

There is a precious video of children in North Carolina  singing the song, "Eye of the Storm". I hope it blesses you...

Eye of the Storm - by Ryan Stevenson

Listen to the full song here.

For those of us who will be able to watch the new movie/shows this weekend... may we enjoy this hour or two with our families and count our blessings, Net

SEE WHICH TV MOVIE ⭐ STARS ⭐ SHINE IN UPCOMING FAITH BASED MOVIES... GOD BLESS THE BROKEN ROAD and UNBROKEN: PATH TO REDEMPTION

Unbroken: Path to Redemption via Pureflix
God Bless the Broken Road via 10 West Studios

- Merritt Patterson and Andrew W. Walker -

It's rather exciting when familiar actors and actresses we are used to regularly watching on our TV screens show up in new movies - at the theater! When I saw these two upcoming, uplifting films, I just knew I had to share their impactful stories of faith and redemption with all of you here, and I'm glad to say you will recognize some well known faces from Hallmark or Lifetime.

Although Merritt Patterson and Andrew W. Walker starred together in the Hallmark Channel June Wedding movie, "Wedding March 4: Something Old, Something New," this time around they are starring in separate films.

And now that both of these faith-based movies, "God Bless the Broken Road" and "Unbroken: Path to Redemption," are just days away from their premieres, I thought this would be an ideal time to share details on both films. Be sure to watch the trailers below to get a glimpse of their incredible talent - which is soon hitting the big screen!

God Bless the Broken Road

on the set of "God Bless the Broken Road"

Storyline: "Amber's (portrayed by Lindsay Pulsipher) ideal life is shattered when she loses her husband to the war in Afghanistan. Two years later, she finds herself in a struggle to save her home while providing for her 9-year-old daughter, Bree (Makenzie Moss). When up-and-coming race car driver Cody Jackson (Andrew W. Walker) rolls into town, Amber and Bree become wrapped up in his pedal to the metal way of life. With her faith hanging in the balance, Amber is forced to decide between the broken road she knows so well or trusting in a new path that God has provided."

*This film is based on the Rascal Flatts song "God Bless the Broken Road."

Hallmark Actors/Actresses Starring in "God Bless the Broken Road" include:

Andrew W. Walker - "Wedding March 4: Something Old, Something New," "My Secret Valentine," "Love Struck Café" and many more Hallmark films! Andrew also starred in the popular Lifetime Holiday movie, "Snowed-Inn Christmas."

Unbroken: Path to Redemption

- Merritt Patterson and Samuel Hunt -

- Bobby Campo and Samuel Hunt -

Storyline: "Based on Laura Hillenbrand’s bestselling book, UNBROKEN: PATH TO REDEMPTION begins where the hit movie Unbroken concludes, sharing the next amazing chapter of the unbelievable true story of Olympian and World War II hero Louis Zamperini (portrayed by Samuel Hunt).

Haunted by nightmares of his torment, Louie sees himself as anything but a hero. Then, he meets Cynthia (Merritt Patterson), a young woman who captures his eye—and his heart.

Louie’s wrathful quest for revenge drives him deeper into despair, putting the couple on the brink of divorce. Until Cynthia experiences Billy Graham’s 1949 Los Angeles Crusade, where she finds faith in God and a renewed commitment to her marriage and her husband. Now, her most fervent prayer is for God to help Louie find the peace and forgiveness he so desperately needs."

Hallmark Actors/Actresses Starring in "Unbroken: Path to Redemption" include:

Merritt Patterson - "Wedding March 4: Something Old, Something New," "The Christmas Cottage," "A Royal Winter," and the PixL movie "Bad Date Chronicles."

Bobby Campo - "Love's Christmas Journey," "My Christmas Love," "Snow Bride," and "Sharing Christmas"

Vanessa Bell Calloway - "Love, Once, and Always"

David DeLuise - "Where There's a Will" (Interesting side note: David is also the brother of Peter DeLuise, who has directed a number of Hallmark productions, including "Garage Sale Mystery," "Wedding March," and "When Calls the Heart," etc...)

In other casting news:
Will Graham, the son of Franklin Graham, and the grandson of Billy Graham... will be portraying the role of his grandfather, Reverend Billy Graham, in this film. His voice sounds amazingly just like his Granddaddy! Be sure to listen for it in the trailer clip!

Theater Release date: September 14, 2018

Rated: PG-13

I pray many viewers will be greatly impacted by each of these amazing stories that give an honorable tribute to our military. Through their own spiritual journey, both films show how faith in God can restore one's spirit and mend broken hearts.

Blessings to you all, Net

"He restores my soul;

He leads me in the paths of righteousness

For His name’s sake."
