With broken English and poor health, Cabrini uses her entrepreneurial mind to build an empire of hope unlike anything the world had ever seen.<br /><br /></span></span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: large;">From Alejandro Monteverde, award-winning director of "Sound of Freedom," and Angel Studios, the film also stars Cristiana Dell'Anna, John Lithgow, David Morse, Romana Maggiora Vergano, and Giancarlo Giannini.

Her work, over a span of 34 years, includes establishing an astonishing 67 hospitals, orphanages, and schools. Despite health issues, her energy was fueled by an intense focus on serving Jesus in whatever He asked of her. Mother Cabrini was canonized in 1946 by Pope Pius XII and became the first American citizen to be named a saint. Four years later she was given the title of Patroness of Immigrants.<br /><br />The film is wonderful. Cabrini was a remarkable woman by any standards, but the movie shows a clearer portrait of what women faced in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Without using graphic images to tell the story, the audience still gets a poignant reminder of life for immigrants who arrived in America, expecting streets of gold, but finding poverty, filth, rejection, disease, early death, and very little hope to succeed. A wonderful team of actors brought the story to life and you won't forget the performances. And I can't say enough about cinematography, directing, film angles, lighting, <i><span style="color: #0c343d;">(because I don't know what I am talking about 😉)</span></i> but the film looked marvelous and I loved it all. I highly recommend this movie to all. Go see it, beginning March 8th! <br /><br />Giveaway: $10 Amazon gift card! </span></span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: large;">Please submit your full </span></span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: large;">name and email address by 3/8/24.</span></span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: large;">(Note: This is limited to US winners only.) <br /><br />Disclosure: Many thanks to Angel Studios for providing a sample of the product for this review.

It is based on a true story, and from what I've read, does stay close to actual events. Writers Kelly Fremon Craig and Meg Tilly, along with director Jon Gunn, are to be commended. Actors Hilary Swank, Alan Ritchson, Nancy Travers, Emily Mitchell, and Skywalker Hughes (plus the rest of the cast) are fantastic. <br /><br />The story is about a child desperately needing a liver transplant and a stranger who feels compelled to help the family with mounting medical bills. It sounds like a tear-jerker, but this film offers hope along with laughter that keeps the viewer fully engrossed. In my opinion, "Ordinary Angels" is a Must-See film!

I confess that I have never been a huge fan of disco, but <i>I Will Survive </i>was an exception from the moment I heard it, and I still love the song. Gloria Gaynor is definitely talented and this film proves her voice is as beautiful as ever. Seeing the ups and downs of her career, marriage, and painful health issues demonstrate that "I Will Survive" is a poignant, powerful anthem to define her life.

Yes, if you've read the New Testament, you will know the story and can anticipate some of the action. Yet, the writers and actors have made the familiar come to life in a way that will touch the hearts of everyone. The black and white (& sometimes red) words spring into full living color! </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><br />And the creative background stories that are woven into <i>The Chosen </i>have given us a new perspective into the actual persons from the Bible, plus several "plausible" characters we have learned to love...or loathe. Season 4 brings even more intensity than the prior 3 seasons. I know that I felt the full range of emotions as these stories unfolded. I loved all 3 episodes, but the end of episode 3 left me gasping and saying, "No!! Don't end here! I NEED episode 4 NOW!" </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"> </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSyiHq73btlwzV1M4OeVn-RZJeb02ctr429uy9IRzpQfye12h5TBhUbH7nNaIwBROT9oV_RnuAtvdndWtuMqUQAe0zPkB4lk53QHOadCDc9yywjnQ7eM_7-bXWZflOewjLIKDEmsc4I6zWIxLPOEyviykZPx7yU2gCIYhwV6LDOqUAa2IOSM3bsJE0mrs/s1351/chosen%20s4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1351" data-original-width="1080" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSyiHq73btlwzV1M4OeVn-RZJeb02ctr429uy9IRzpQfye12h5TBhUbH7nNaIwBROT9oV_RnuAtvdndWtuMqUQAe0zPkB4lk53QHOadCDc9yywjnQ7eM_7-bXWZflOewjLIKDEmsc4I6zWIxLPOEyviykZPx7yU2gCIYhwV6LDOqUAa2IOSM3bsJE0mrs/w256-h320/chosen%20s4.jpg" width="256" /></a></div>LINKS<br /></span><ul><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.thechosenriseup.com/" target="_blank">Website</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.thechosenriseup.com/tickets/" target="_blank">Buy Tickets</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wisX-CEjoxc" target="_blank">Trailer</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.lingoapp.com/107055/a/Dec-18-2023-Season-4-Trailer-Tickets-on-Sale-zAgj8k?asset_token=CZf2HfJxnpNInTCeeIWLmDHE7y1HU99eCxLXMYvSJ8g&v=45" target="_blank">Press Release</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/InsideTheChosen" target="_blank">Facebook</a> </span></li><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@TheChosenSeries" target="_blank">YouTube</a></span></li><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/thechosentvseries/" target="_blank">Instagram</a> <br /><br /><br /></span></li></ul></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"> Season 4 will be outstanding on the big screen!

immigrant who arrives in New York City in 1889 and is greeted by
disease, crime, and impoverished children. Cabrini sets off on a daring

Cabrini uses her entrepreneurial mind to build an empire of hope unlike
anything the world had ever seen.</span><br />

REVIEW: Do you have questions about problems that come up in our lives,
especially in a world that is rapidly changing? Sometimes you simply aren't
sure who to turn to or whom you feel comfortable discussing private concerns with. The
tremendous range of topics included in this Bible can lead you to beneficial
Scripture to encourage you and help articulate what you may not be able to put
into words. (I know I sometimes get feedback that clearly shows that my words
were not truly heard. I am guilty myself of formulating a response instead of
focusing on what another is telling me.) I was truly astonished at the wide
range of topics! </span><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: medium;"><br />
But... there's more. Word studies, a great concordance, maps, and room to write
and make notes in the margins are a great addition. The print is a bit small
for me, but my vision is getting worse. I believe it
would be comfortable for most people. I highly recommend you get this Bible for
your personal library. <br /><br /></span></span></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-FupdahurDeZXplRIF6EG6DxNchhdnnI1qF_V5n78KuNeDBlXkpMA8D_J9KMhXwR-RG5NgDBnCCC2klDGxCa42reH07Zn-2rBHlBPokFJXQxr72blDcgus13bujcIw0nhJCUBBBiMHXyeUObYzyYJruCz5ZbzMGNJQw579DGdY_Ao5Ha8JvvIaZc7WV0/s2251/523706472-csb-lcb-adresizes-social-05.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2251" data-original-width="2250" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-FupdahurDeZXplRIF6EG6DxNchhdnnI1qF_V5n78KuNeDBlXkpMA8D_J9KMhXwR-RG5NgDBnCCC2klDGxCa42reH07Zn-2rBHlBPokFJXQxr72blDcgus13bujcIw0nhJCUBBBiMHXyeUObYzyYJruCz5ZbzMGNJQw579DGdY_Ao5Ha8JvvIaZc7WV0/w320-h320/523706472-csb-lcb-adresizes-social-05.jpg" width="320" /></a></b></div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="color: #660000; font-size: medium;">Giveaway: $10 Amazon giftcard!<br />(Note: This is limited to US winners only.)

Published by <a href="https://wisepathbooks.com/" target="_blank">Wise Path Books</a>. <br /><br /></span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span>Set in 1889 Vermont, the series revolves around a set of orphans, adopted
by their widowed aunt, coming to terms with their parent’s death,
adjusting to life in their new family, learning new responsibilities,
and making new friends. The Bobtails series teaches lessons about
responsibility, duty, difficult obedience, and, above all, trusting God
through difficult circumstances.<br /><br />My Review: I enjoyed reading both of these books. I love historical fiction (or books that were written before I was born) to learn more about what life was like... what was good, and what I am glad we have moved beyond.<br /><br />The 4 children (Robert, Esther, Roger, and Ruth) are orphaned when both parents die, and during a meeting to decide who will raise them, the judge decides their Aunt Grace is in the best position to take custody. She is the children's least favorite relative, but they know there is no choice and prepare to move miles away from their hometown. <br /><br />Grace does live up to her reputation of being very strict, but they soon learn she believes children need a balance of work and play. Even their nightly reading sessions are divided among spiritual growth through Bible reading, an educational book, and a book for pleasure reading. There are other bumps along the road as they deal with grief, new surroundings, learning responsibility with their new chores on Aunt Grace's dairy farm, and fitting into a new community including a few boys who want to challenge them. Robert gains a nemesis in Geoffrey who is the one who disparagingly calls the new kids "The Bobtails." Grace also finds unexpected romance with a widowed neighbor!<br /><br />In the second book, the children have been adopted by Grace and her new husband! At the request of Grace, there are three 2 week long visits from their 3 uncles and aunts, and all of their cousins. The character development of all is fun to read, and I was sorry when each family would return home. I would love to know more about them; each family is worth a book (or more) on their own. Or, even numerous family visits like the Bobbsey Twins books I loved as a child. <br /></span></span></span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span>The books are very well written and interesting. To modern eyes, the lives of these kids may seem harsh, but there was also a common sense approach to raising responsible children to become adults who can take care of themselves. These would be a fun family reading project with a lot of material for discussions. I also enjoy the train motif of the covers, and there are train-related stories included. The illustrations included are an absolute delight, and could also be included in a family project. I highly recommend both books (and look forward the reading their 3rd adventure when it is released. <br /><br />Below are more details of each book: </span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span><br /></span></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7qw63I49PKg9JAvGPolRjhP4feIvD3zjIkvydoAS4dpffyTh73soHir8Apdepx4zMVObo6F42gNogmTdT2vE5UviC-QDH6uvH2vWLQDXkW5UhfjoUgSluTFxNowle8HyWa22GEDcvDLHuaXMNCVNLjsZDBao0yEiKYvGcM1TLACi4gGUQmiFxeykMT-s/s1500/Bobtails%20PK.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1500" data-original-width="938" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7qw63I49PKg9JAvGPolRjhP4feIvD3zjIkvydoAS4dpffyTh73soHir8Apdepx4zMVObo6F42gNogmTdT2vE5UviC-QDH6uvH2vWLQDXkW5UhfjoUgSluTFxNowle8HyWa22GEDcvDLHuaXMNCVNLjsZDBao0yEiKYvGcM1TLACi4gGUQmiFxeykMT-s/w200-h320/Bobtails%20PK.jpg" width="200" /></a></span></div><p><span style="font-size: medium;">THE BOBTAILS MEET THE PREACHER'S KID<br /></span><br /><span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Robert was determined to do his best and make his dead father

Roger didn’t believe his parents were dead, and was just going to have

set her mind to providing the best possible home for her orphaned
"niblings"... and Aunt Grace always did what she set her mind on.<br /><br />A
poignant story about four orphans and their widowed aunt who takes them

the children’s journey through grief, jealousy, and, finally, settled

Receiving a full academic scholarship to Oxford University was a dream come true, and one that led her to where she never expected to go...into a faith she had dismissed as childish.<br /><br />This journey also led her to a fellow American in Oxford who happened to be a devout Christian. Kent Weber (Ruairi O'Connor), also known as TDH, patiently pursued her as a love interest but was one of the main people who helped teach Carolyn that faith and intellectual facts are not opposite.<i> </i><a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8891560" target="_blank"><i>Surprised by Oxford</i></a><i> </i>explores Christianity on a more intellectual level than many faith-related films which appeals to those who may not be reached by the average Christian film.<br /><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjddOfyqmAC_-7sLemZqFBLOYDGlVVpZDFcBQB6bBOC5_45-9YJFccrAwN8G5xZvDcs0xR9OcmCUIeNCBCUkzq8wQXFohAIeoLYQIN9QmLmKJmIxXyG6CeJl4AWOk3Izc296UiXlIQn6kA2yiatxaeenv53t7JKJ0ZfMxp8X0jFSTPIbWmWbd_76rHVcE/s945/Sequence%2001.00_45_18_17.Still028.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="945" data-original-width="770" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjddOfyqmAC_-7sLemZqFBLOYDGlVVpZDFcBQB6bBOC5_45-9YJFccrAwN8G5xZvDcs0xR9OcmCUIeNCBCUkzq8wQXFohAIeoLYQIN9QmLmKJmIxXyG6CeJl4AWOk3Izc296UiXlIQn6kA2yiatxaeenv53t7JKJ0ZfMxp8X0jFSTPIbWmWbd_76rHVcE/s320/Sequence%2001.00_45_18_17.Still028.png" width="261" /></a></div><span style="font-weight: normal;">The movie is based on the memoir of <a href="https://www.carolynweber.com/" target="_blank">Carolyn Weber</a>, <i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Surprised-Oxford-Memoir-Carolyn-Weber/dp/084992183X" target="_blank">Surprised by Oxford</a></i>.

It's mostly positive, but my initial reaction doesn't completely embrace the film. <br /><br />Negative: I tend to view historical events in films through the lens of the customs and laws of that time period, so Mary and Joseph seemed a bit immature to me to be taking on the the responsibility of raising our Savior. I've also never thought of their story as a Rom-Com. But, this also can open the door to a great conversation starter with people who want to know more. Some of the scenes did not work very well for me, but it may have just been my mood. I do plan to see the film again.<br /><br /><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtv4s6Du9Fr-SdJoJIuoooR9hDYrUAVPc9Jw5bIDm3y7f4jJA-7SlBxyITdi39YOIW09Z9yMNEk9wzKF3fdDNZZwpMxyaUvafnNDu_QfkPW0BN_6u5aIAAQsz3zAmFb8dT0bPWLRBrDLdwdtoEQu0yGW825jQEEkl7EaIvOxYx9U_BbF8ejCZe4T6Y4xM/s1350/Joseph.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1350" data-original-width="1080" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtv4s6Du9Fr-SdJoJIuoooR9hDYrUAVPc9Jw5bIDm3y7f4jJA-7SlBxyITdi39YOIW09Z9yMNEk9wzKF3fdDNZZwpMxyaUvafnNDu_QfkPW0BN_6u5aIAAQsz3zAmFb8dT0bPWLRBrDLdwdtoEQu0yGW825jQEEkl7EaIvOxYx9U_BbF8ejCZe4T6Y4xM/s320/Joseph.png" width="256" /></a></div><span style="font-size: medium;">Positive: There was some great music! I do need a longer version of "O Come, O Come Emmanuel" since this version was amazing! My other favorite was "In My Blood" by Joel Smallbone (for King + Country)! Most of the comedy was entertaining too. (I can overlook a joke or song that I simply didn't like.) <br /><i><br /></i>I could not find fault based on Scripture either. Of course, people don't normally break out in song and dance (although I often wish they did), but this is a MUSICAL.

Twins <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2715105" target="_blank">Scout</a> and <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2716711" target="_blank">Sophia Tayui-Lepore</a> play their roles to perfection as Madison and Clone. I laughed at their crazy antics while also feeling a bit sad for Madison when she would hide to watch Clone live the life that she was afraid to live herself, including dating Trevor (<a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4879420" target="_blank">Finn Roberts</a>), the guy Madison has had a crush on the entire school year. Instead of finding courage and confidence, she lost more of herself while using Clone to do the things that she feared...despite learning she was capable of more than she realized. The journey to discovering her identity in Christ is entertaining, but also thought-provoking. <br /><br />The movie was written by the <a href="https://theboylansisters.com/" target="_blank">Boylan Sisters</a> (<a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0102153" target="_blank">Alexandra Boylan</a> and <a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm6226977" target="_blank">Andrea Polnaszek</a>) and I am looking forward to seeing other films by them. <i>Identity Crisis </i>is a fantastic combo of entertainment and faith-building and I want to see more like this.

Not only is it useful for the parents of toddlers, but also for the parents of teens and young adults who are exploring sexuality and relationships. Actually, they agree that this is a topic that will most likely need to be addressed in elementary school, but at a level more suitable for their age. Children are much more aware of sex than I was as a child. BUT, sex is certainly not the only topic the book covers.<br /><br />Just as a young child asks WHY?, you may be wondering why some forms of discipline or conversation are important. They explain the importance. I also love the personal stories shared. Don't think this book is just for parents, though. As a great-grandparent, I saw the wisdom imparted and how I can make up a difference, but there was something even more important. The final chapter left me with HOPE.<br /><br />Regrets over mistakes made or seeing an adult child who has drifted (or ran) from God can cause deep grief and guilt. Jimmy Evans encourages the reader not to believe it's too late if your child is no longer a child. He shares a story of a man who accepted Christ as his Savior in his 80s. Decades after his death, a father's prayers for his son were answered! No matter if your baby is still a baby or is now a grandparent, KEEP PRAYING.<br /></span></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;">GIVEAWAY: Enter to Win 1 physical copy of <i>Fighting For the Soul of Your Child.</i> Please submit your full name and mailing address by 11/12. </span></span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;">(Note: This is limited to US winners only.)</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;">DISCLAIMER: Many thanks to XO Publishing for providing a sample of the product for this review.

The film starts with a humorous interaction between Pastor Jeremiah Jacobs and his wife Martha. They, along with their teen-aged daughter Hope, appear to be a perfect family. However, when Hope is kidnapped, we learn that Martha has a secret past. Will her loyalty to Jeremiah and faith in God waver when she learns her outlaw father (<a href="https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001194" target="_blank">Jeff Fahey</a>) has Hope and demands his daughter return to her old life.<br /><br />The movie has very strong characters, and it's always great to see strong, capable women in roles. Themes of forgiveness, second chances, hope, faith despite circumstances, and trusting God when chaos has turned your life upside down. I love the actors in "Birthright Outlaw" and I've never seen an Aaron Burns film I didn't enjoy. I recognize several names in the crew who also make outstanding films. There are several twists and turns along the way with each step bringing the characters to a firmer foundation. I highly recommend it. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1BNHYY7a7Hq1FeTp2E_vvRPgGUpfnGeMU6oaSsRhrc_UXd7qKEHMatAP5nGZMsB4iaEcKrzryx579Q2GU7nl7rOqKrx1h6DoZ_6umzDmdOzJ7KBQsmPJwCZsm0OdmkJlEuoGBmlXUX2uZy6XR7LaqAlBMZNUy44Id6QawNLaxXD52FVoDW0tnGbSl5i8/s563/BirthrightOutlaw_IMF11251290_EngDS_MEDS_ENG51_Opt_DS_16x9_239_2398_ProResHD_Archival.mov-frame-61292.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="517" data-original-width="563" height="184" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1BNHYY7a7Hq1FeTp2E_vvRPgGUpfnGeMU6oaSsRhrc_UXd7qKEHMatAP5nGZMsB4iaEcKrzryx579Q2GU7nl7rOqKrx1h6DoZ_6umzDmdOzJ7KBQsmPJwCZsm0OdmkJlEuoGBmlXUX2uZy6XR7LaqAlBMZNUy44Id6QawNLaxXD52FVoDW0tnGbSl5i8/w200-h184/BirthrightOutlaw_IMF11251290_EngDS_MEDS_ENG51_Opt_DS_16x9_239_2398_ProResHD_Archival.mov-frame-61292.png" width="200" /></a></div></span></span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Giveaway:</b> 3-month subscription to Great American Pure Flix.<br />Please submit your winner’s full name and email address by 10/21.<br /></span></span><br /><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Disclosure: Many thanks to Great American Pure Flix for providing a sample of the product for this review.

His wife, family, and friends have certainly played a vital role, but what shines brightly is his faith in and love for his Savior, Jesus Christ. The reminder that even in our weakest moments, we gain our strength in Christ, is the clear message of the book. Barton encourages the reader to not give up and that we still are to run the race given us to reach the goal of hearing, "Well done, good and faithful servant."<br /><br />I recommend this book to anyone who needs encouragement and hope. His joy in the Lord is evident and his accomplishments will lead you to face and rise above your own disabilities, whether they be physical, mental, or spiritual. Trust God and step out in faith.<br /><br />LINKS:<br /><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Amazing-Days-Grace-Afflictions-Disabilities/dp/1613149301/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3DJXC9BI81R7F&keywords=amazing+days+of+grace+by+john+barton&qid=1689865752&sprefix=Amazing+Days+of+Grace+%2Caps%2C164&sr=8-1" target="_blank">AMAZON - Buy Book</a></span></span></span><p></p><p><span class="a-size-base ryp__product-title-text" data-hook="ryp-product-title"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/amazing-days-of-grace-john-barton/1143801292?ean=9781613149294" target="_blank">BARNES & NOBLE - Buy Book<br /></a> <br /><a href="https://www.johntbarton.com" target="_blank">John T.

T</i></span><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">hey are known, of course, for their duck calls and love of hunting, but also for their deep and abiding Christian faith. <br /><br />"The Blind" takes us back to the "before-they-were-famous" years with a glimpse at Phil's childhood, meeting Kay as a teenager, and his time playing quarterback for the Louisiana Tech University football team. However, the film's main focus is the tumultuous years of his and Kay's marriage with little money, young sons, and Phil's growing erratic behavior due to alcohol. <br /><br />Then Phil turned his life around when he committed his life to Jesus Christ. His marriage and family were restored to him and his love of hunting led to his invention of an improved duck call. The rest is history.<br /><br />I enjoyed the film. Although I was never on the <i>Duck</i> <i>Dynasty</i> bandwagon, I did know about the show and read/seen articles and interviews with various family members. I frequently listen to Phil's <i>Unashamed </i>podcast so I am more familiar with the family's faith than with their business ventures. My only complaint was with some of the accents, and even they weren't bad all the time. The actors playing Uncle Si (shown at various ages) were great at capturing his quirkiness and provided the comic relief. I recommend you get out this weekend to see the film in theaters. There are 2 options for groups: buy group tickets or arrange to have the movie shown at your church.

Running north to south, Route 60 connects ancient Israel with modern Israel, Jews and Christians with Muslims, and Israelis with Palestinians.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: large;"></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="368" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_7ibV7ErsYo" width="483" youtube-src-id="_7ibV7ErsYo"></iframe></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><span style="color: red;">Buy tickets today to see Route 60 in theaters ONLY on 9/18 & 9/19! <b><a href="https://www.fathomevents.com/events/Route-60-The-Biblical-Highway" target="_blank">BUY TICKETS!</a><a href="https://www.fathomevents.com/events/Route-60-The-Biblical-Highway" target="_blank"><br /></a></b></span></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: large;">My Review: This guided tour through areas whose names are familiar to many of us because of Bible study help them come to life through the eyes of David Friedman and Mike Pompeo. I know I will never have the opportunity to go to Israel myself, so I deeply appreciated this film. It's a fascinating look at both modern Israel and the ancient places where Abraham, Jacob, King David, King Solomon, and Jesus lived. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><b>Giveaway:</b><span style="color: red;"> $10 Amazon gift card</span>.
