A Celebration of Christian Music & Movies! DETAILS HERE:

KLOVE FAN AWARDS

an Encore Presentation

Originally, the KLOVE Fan Awards were filmed May 30, 2021 - at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tennessee. I just love that they have church style pews there instead of regular seats. Anyway, the awards first premiered on TV last Friday night; however, they are receiving a special encore presentation tonight, Friday, June 11, 2021 at 8pm Eastern / 7pm Central / 5pm Pacific on TBN, Trinity Broadcasting Network. The show also repeats immediately after the first showing. I personally enjoyed the program so much last week, that I wanted to share it with all of you - just in case you missed it.

One on the awards given at the KLOVE Fan Awards was for FILM and TELEVISION IMPACT. The nominees were A Week Away, Church People, The Chosen, I Am Patrick, and I Still Believe. I thought many of you here would be interested since I know you are passionate supporters of The Chosen. Also, A Week Away is a Christian Musical that stars two actors well known from Hallmark - Bailee Madison (Northpole) and Kevin Quinn (A Christmas Love Story). Actress Erin Cahill (A Timeless Christmas), who we also know well from Hallmark, has a role in the Christian movie, Church People. Tune in to see which production won this category!

The awards show was hosted by Christian Singer/Songwriter, Matthew West. If you're not familiar with him, my favorite songs by West are: The God Who Stays, Hello, My Name Is, The Motions, Day After Christmas, and his new song, Truth Be Told, which he sings in the awards program with Country Artist, Carly Pearce. Their collaboration was fantastic! (Also, you may know Matthew West from a small role he had, along with Candace Cameron Bure, in a Christmas movie that aired on UPtv in 2011 called The Heart of Christmas.)

Other music artists you will see in the program include: Joel Smallbone from for King & Country, Zach Williams, the musical groups Cain, MercyMe, We The Kingdom, and Casting Crowns, Michael W. Smith, Natalie Grant, Danny Gokey, Tauren Wells, Crowder, Riley Clemmons, Andrew Ripp, Kari Jobe, Cory Asbury, and more!

I hope many of you will enjoy the program as much as I did! See where you can find TBN below.

PLOT:

from Wikipedia:

Christmas has always been a exceptional time of love and tradition in the small town of Trapper Falls, Alaska. Hometown of Mayor Dan Reed (Ted McGinley) looks forward to each year with enthusiasm to all the events, friends and family that fill this special season. Together with his brother Greg (Brad Stine), they dedicate time away from their adventure tour company to drape the town is Christmas cheer.

When Dan's old high school rival Mitch Bright (Daniel Baldwin) returns home after 20 years, Dan is immediately suspicious. Mitch is a highly successful big city lawyer who has never wanted anything to do with Trapper Falls. The rivalry re-ignites when Mitch takes offense to seeing the town's flagrant violation of the constitution's Establishment clause. Mitch wants the Nativity scene removed from the front of City hall and more importantly the word Christmas switched to Happy Holidays on all signs.

Fifty years of tradition are now challenged not by an outsider but a former member of the community. As the conflict escalates it goes beyond one persons opinion but magnifies into an entire town problem when Mitch enters into the mayoral race to have Dan replaced.

In the heat of the legal battle and facing certain defeat, Dan's wife Kristen (Nancy Stafford) and their daughter Makayla (Francesca Derosa) wanting to show the true meaning of Christmas are inspired to launch a "Christmas with a Capital C" campaign as an effort to keep the town together.

In doing so they discover the secret behind Mitch's return but also reminds all of Trapper Falls that with the arrival of God's Son, peace on earth and good will was to be given to all; even those whose heart seem closed to him.

 



Movie Review:

This isn't your typical Christmas movie about Santa Claus or Reindeers, etc. This movie is actually about Christ!

Christmas with a Capital C is remarkable. All Christians should see this powerful and amazing film that shows Christians standing up for what they believe in. When Mitch Bright returns to his hometown he begins stirring up all kinds of trouble for his old high school rival, Dan Reed, who is the Town's Mayor and married to the woman Mitch also wanted. Now Mitch has decided to attack all Christians and their beliefs starting with Christmas and removing the town's nativity display that has stood in the town's square for many many years. Dan, as the mayor, is determined not to give up his beliefs and save the nativity display. It becomes increasingly harder to do when Mitch decides to run against Dan, for Mayor.

The Reed family stands even stronger together in their faith. Dan's brother, Greg, is very passionate about his Christian beliefs regarding Christmas and is quite vocal about his opinions wherever he is. He also gets his sweet niece Makayla involved, by having her dress up as an angel and sing Christmas Carols on the empty site where the nativity display should be. Mitch takes offense to this, as well, and has the police remove them.

Eventually, Dan's wife Kristen, and her daughter Makayla decide Christmas is about loving and giving to one another and sharing the love of Christ, instead of it being about a wooden display. They start showing Christ's love by giving to others and Makayla decides to bake Mitch some cookies. From there a secret is eventually revealed and everything begins to unravel one thread at a time.

It's a very intriguing family Christmas movie from beginning to end. Our family loved it!

Courageous from Fireproof to Fatherhood

There's a new movie being made by Sherwood Pictures. They are the creators of Flywheel, Facing the Giants, and Fireproof.
Here is some Information about this new movie, below from Courageous the Movie Facebook:

From the Creators of FIREPROOF...


Four men, one calling: To serve and protect.


As law enforcement officers, Adam Mitchell, Nathan Hayes, and their partners are confident and focused. They willingly stand up to the worst the world can offer. Yet when they take off their badges at the end of the day, they face a challenge that none of them are truly prepared to tackle: fatherhood.


While they consistently give their best on the job, good enough seems to be all they can muster as dads. But they’re quickly discovering that their standard is missing the mark.


They know that God desires to turn the hearts of fathers to their children, but their children are beginning to drift further and further away from them. Will they be able to find a way to serve and protect those that are most dear to them?


When tragedy hits home, these men are left wrestling with their hopes, their fears, their faith, and their fathering. Can a newfound urgency help these dads draw closer to God … and to their children?


Courageous is the fourth release of Sherwood Pictures, the moviemaking ministry of Sherwood Church in Albany, Georgia. Their first release since FIREPROOF, the No. 1 independent film of 2008, Courageous joins Facing the Giants and Flywheel in touching and impacting lives through heartfelt stories of faith and hope.


Moviegoers will again find themselves crying, laughing, and cheering—sometimes simultaneously—as they are inspired by everyday heroes who long to be the kinds of dads that make a lifelong impact on their children.


Protecting the streets is second nature to these law enforcement officers. Raising their children? That will take courage.


Courageous … honor begins at home.

I look forward to seeing this movie, as our family has enjoyed and been encouraged by all of the other Movies by Sherwood Pictures: Flywheel, Facing the Giants, and Fireproof.

God bless them and be with them as they work on this new Production to encourage Fathers.

MOVIE REVIEW

CAST:

John Schneider ... Gary Zimmerman
David A.R. White ... Jeremy Evans
Staci Keanan ... Rachel Wilson
Corin Nemec ... Michael Stover
Tracy Melchior ... Sherry Hayden
Reginald VelJohnson ... Norman Wexler
Gregg Binkley ... Harold Mirfin
Autumn Paul ... Rhonda Mirfin
Rachael Lampa ... Sally Hemmings
Sean Sedgwick ... Anthony DeMeo
Brad Heller ... Joey
Jason Borck ... Christopher Hayden
Kerry Lynne McHugh ... Waitress
Thurman Dalrymple ... Big Fan

PLOT:

from Hidden Secrets - The Movie Web-site:

What if your deepest secret were suddenly exposed? Nine friends discover just how explosive it can be when their past becomes their present.

Reunited at the funeral of hometown hero Chris Hayden, the friends find tensions escalating rapidly as their darkest secrets are revealed. Jeremy (David A.R. White-"Mercy Streets"), struggling with his calling as a former youth pastor, is caught in an awkward love triangle between his new fiancée and his old flame Sherry (Tracey Melchoir-"Bold and Beautiful"). As the embers of the past relationship reignite, Jeremy’s fiancée Rachel (Stacey Keanan-"Step by Step"), who is determined to solidify their relationship, demands he affirm his commitment to her.

Meanwhile, Gary (John Schneider- "Dukes of Hazzard", "Smallville", "Come Dance at my Wedding") questions everyone’s beliefs as this close-knit group of friends disputes world views, lifestyles, and personal passions. Pastor Wexler (Reginald Vel Johnson-"Family Matters") encourages them not to give up but to follow the truth that Chris Hayden lived.

Hidden Secrets is a story of love, friendship, redemption and ultimately faith. Humorous, touching and always entertaining.

Movie Review:

This Movie has a Strong Christian Message that deals with many Questions of Faith and areas of Sin. Hidden Secrets is Interesting and Intriging, and often reminds me of a Hallmark Channel Movie, however... I would not recommend this for family viewing. Why? The movie opens dark and mysteriously, with a man writing a letter. Quickly we learn that this is to be a suicide note, and we see a man put a gun to his head- he does not go through with it due to a phone call just then by a friend... letting him know another dear friend, Chris, has just passed away. From then on, Old Friends gather together to say goodbye to Chris, and deal with their past sins, friendships, and relationships. Questions arise continuously about Faith and Forgiveness.

There are deep questions and confrontations about Faith, Sin, Abortion, Homosexuality, etc... however, there are great lighthearted moments, too. There is an old love story between a couple of the friends who parted years ago, yet it is obvious to see, in spite of him bringing his girlfriend of two years to the funeral, that there are still strong and unresolved feelings between the two.

The men in the group of friends think they can roof the house and one man ends up falling off the house and fortunately, into some bushes. He is sore, but only has some bad scratches.

Another fun moment... they go to a Thrift Store to buy Retro-Style clothes and that night, they go dancing at a restaurant/bar that has a Retro Dance Night. 3 of the guys even end up on stage singing! Unfortunately, the handsome John Schneider wasn't one of them - I know he has a beautiful voice! He was a great member of this cast and made all the characters feel real and lively! It's a Terrific Thought - Provoking Christian film for Mature Teens and Adults.

See, it's a good Christian Movie.

*This Movie is NOT for Children.
