To Save Gibson Ranch

SONS OF THUNDER: REDEMPTION



Earlier this month I posted about the upcoming Pure Flix Sons of Thunder spinoff series, Sons of Thunder: Redemption, featuring
Rocky Myers as Jacob "Bruiser" Lewis. Cast members for the new series include Charlene Amoia as Sandy; Tyler Johnson as Logan; Kristy Swanson as Linda; and Wyatt Walter as Cooper.

My review assignment for this series is Episode 2: To Save Gibson Ranch. To get you up to date: Jacob has been released from a Texas prison and found his former girlfriend living on Gibson Ranch in California.

In Episode 2, Jacob has accepted a job on Gibson Ranch after Sandy (reluctantly) vouched for him. The problem is that the ranch is failing and the Gibson family is within weeks of losing their home. In a last-ditch effort to save it, the ranchers decide to host a rodeo to raise the needed money. But trouble includes a greedy rival rancher who wants more, as well as a member of Jacob's former gang seeking revenge.

The characters are becoming more developed by this episode and I am enjoying getting to know them. Jacob is growing in his faith and eager to share it with others. Of course, he is getting used to his own lifestyle changes and choices, too. Tension, anger, and fear are present as they struggle to save the ranch, but there are also some very funny moments. And if you are a horse lover, you have another reason to enjoy [this series].

More than just a story, there are great points of faith to consider. Have you struggled with any of these?

    • Pride and being willing to accept help

    • Second chances - God’s given us a chance to make things right

    • God’s timing

    • Regrets and living in the past

  • Key Bible Verses for Episode 2

    • But now, this is what the Lord says — He who created you, Jacob, He who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. – Isaiah 43:1-2 (NIV)

    • My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry. – James 1:19 (NIV)

    • Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall. – Proverbs 16:18 (NIV)
