Heaven Bound with Torry and I have been friends for a long time. Michael Joiner and Friends Torry is one of writers and will also be my co- star. We have been wanting to work together for years, actually it was Torry who introduced me to a person on Facebook who was responsible for me getting a lead role in The Grace Card back in 2009. We have been close friends ever since. We hung out at Gideon Film Festival a few years back and in Nashville when I last shot a movie there. Torry is a real cutup and when we get together it's crazy. We will probably deviate a little from the script and have some fun improvising. Nancy Stafford will have the role of my wife and I have been looking forward to that. The producers were considering casting her as my wife in The Grace Card, but that didn't work out. So I guess it took a few years and the right script for it to work. I am looking forward to working with her very much. Heaven Bound star Michael Joiner In our first supplement issue to this publication we were pleased to announce a new film, Heaven Bound, that will be produced by Drake Films and Torrent Entertainment this March. We immediately contacted producer Adam Drake who told us that this is a faith-based comedy written by Marshal Younger and Torry Martin and directed by Gabe McCauley. The film will star Michael Joiner, Nancy Stafford, Danny Vinson, Victoria Jackson, Tony Senzamici, Terry Minton, Torry Martin and Sandra Williams. Adam Drake kindly gave us an idea of what to expect. “A financially desperate couple arrives at a mansion and Also starring in Heaven Bound, Nancy Stafford become victims themselves when they are Ed.: You have been successful in two fields, threatened by a dying Christian man who will both acting and as a comedian.

  • Schede Tecniche E Per L'appropriazione Personale
    SCHEDE TECNICHE E PER L’APPROPRIAZIONE PERSONALE DEI FILM E DELLE SERIE TV PROPOSTE PER LA SETTIMANA DELL’EDUCAZIONE 2021 La recente beatificazione di Carlo Acutis può divenire occasione non solo per far conoscere la sua storia, ma anche per trarre dalla sua biografia elementi significativi per un percorso di formazione di catechisti, educatori e genitori. A ciascuna delle quattro tematiche individuate legate alla vita di Carlo è proposta la visione di una pellicola o di una serie televisiva differente per le diverse fasce di riferimento, di modo che si possa fare un percorso sia orizzontale (per una stessa fascia più film) che verticale (per uno stesso tema un film diverso per ogni fascia). Sono proposti anche film per bambini, ragazzi, preadolescenti, adolescenti e giovani, che i rispettivi catechisti ed educatori possono usare sia per la propria formazione che, eventualmente, per una proposta di visione ai rispettivi gruppi anche oltre la “Settimana dell’Educazione”. Di ciascun film viene di seguito data indicazione della reperibilità in DVD, in streaming o a noleggio/acquisto su piattaforma digitale. 1. ORIGINALITÀ: «Tutti nascono come originali, ma molti muoiono come fotocopie». Carlo è stato un ragazzo che ha trascorso una vita ordinaria ma vissuta in modo straordinario, ponendo la propria autenticità e singolare identità a servizio di se stesso, degli altri, di Dio. Compito di ogni educatore è quello di stimolare i ragazzi a scoprire la propria identità, aiutandoli a leggere i segni di ciò che li rende originali e a celebrare la propria insostituibile diversità, che può diventare una ricchezza per tutti. 2. PASSIONE e PASSIONI: «Muoio felice perché non ho mai sprecato un minuto della mia vita in cose che non piacciono a Dio».

  • I Can Only Imagine Full Movie Free Download Booksuite 61
    i can only imagine full movie free download Booksuite 61. Synopsis I Can Only Imagine - *Disclaimer: This isn't any sort of "official" review. This is just one ordinary movie-goer's opinion. I honestly wasn't expecting much, but I wanted to support MercyMe, and I always like to throw my support whenever a movie theater plays a good, clean movie like this one. I was actually quite amazed by the production. It had the look of a big budget film (I have no idea how much the budget was), and was lacking the cheese element prevalent in so many Christian movies. It was remarkably well cast, and I was particularly impressed by both guys who played Bart - the 11 year old Bart (Brody Rose), and the teenage/20something Bart (J Michael Finley). I also LOVED Trace Adkins as Brickell. I took my non-believer friend to it, because he likes MercyMe, and has enjoyed Bart's testimonies whenever I've taken him to a concert, and he liked the movie as well. He even teared up, and he is NOT an emotional guy! I cried too, but I'm an emotional girl! I definitely recommend it. I'm not a person who enjoys going to the movie theater, and usually will only go in special circumstances. I think mainstream America playing a Christian movie in the theater is a special circumstance, and if you want to see more of this happening, I hope you'll go support it. "Though it will never be championed as an insightful work of either religious art or patriarchal psychology, I Can Only Imagine does manage to be a good film about a great song.

  • THE STORY of JEREMY CAMP for Jeremy Camp, It All Boils Down to Loving People Well
    THE STORY OF JEREMY CAMP For Jeremy Camp, it all boils down to loving people well. As a young boy growing up in small-town Lafayette, Indiana, Jeremy’s impressionable young heart watched his parents model this behavior on a regular basis. It was not uncommon for Jeremy to accompany his father to a local prison or boys’ home to minister through words and music, and when his father started a church when Jeremy was only 14, his eyes were truly opened to the remarkable impact of pastoring and ministering. Between caring and providing for him and his siblings and his father entering full-time ministry, the importance of caring for and loving well the people put in your path was not lost on the blue-eyed boy with an affinity for music. But like any other adolescent who grew up in the church and acquired the pastor’s kid label, Jeremy faced his own doubts, temptations and rebellion. As a teen, he found himself living a double life—partying and drinking behind his parents’ back and showing up with his halo seemingly intact on Sunday mornings. But at 16 years old, listening to a pastor at youth camp, Jeremy heard God say to him, “I want to use you, but you’re on the edge of a cliff. You’re about ready to jump off. You need to run as far away from the cliff as possible.” That day a switch flipped and Jeremy submitted his life to the Lord. When he left home for bible college two years later, he was ready for the road that lay ahead.

  • But God … His Story in My Life Since Their Teen Years, My Sons Jon and Andy Have Been Actively Involved in Creating and Producing Films
    But God … His Story in My Life Since their teen years, my sons Jon and Andy have been actively involved in creating and producing films. They are now husbands, fathers, and partnering film directors with their company Erwin Brothers Entertainment. One of my favorite scenes in their movie Woodlawn is near the end of the movie when someone says, “Well, do you believe in miracles?” A character named Tandy says, “Yes, I do. I am one.”i Well, I'm just Shelia and I do believe in miracles, because I am one. I am just a girl who was born in Gadsden, Alabama. My father owned the local grocery store in a small community called Hook’s Lake. The store was the center of the community. It was a fun place to grow up. We lived on the street just behind the grocery store. The school bus stopped in front of the store and all my friends would go to my house after school for snacks. My parents became everyone's second mom and dad. My grandfather was a pastor, as was his father and five generations before him. Consequently, Christ’s love has always been a part of my life. I am sure I heard His name from my mother's lips even before I was born while she carried me in her womb. By the time I was four years old, I knew His story and His plan of salvation, and with that story, I came to understand that I was a sinner. My mom said that at that age, she began to see that I was under a great deal of conviction.
