My Brother's Keeper Review + Giveaway

 


What a powerful film! Being an Army brat, and still part of that military life as a wife, I feel the very real struggles portrayed in this film in the depths of my heart. PTSD is serious, and many of our returning vets struggle daily. We must remember that we all have struggles, and those struggles look different, but God is there to help us through. We must call upon Him and cast our burdens upon Him. We are not struggling alone in this world! Hallelujah!



SYNOPSIS

"MY BROTHER’S KEEPER shares the story of returning war veteran SFC Travis Fox (TC Stallings) who has one more battle to fight - PTSD. Fox and his best friend SFC Ron “Preach” Pearcy (Joey Lawrence) are in their 6th combat deployment when Preach and his entire Ranger platoon are killed in a deadly improvised explosive device attack. Travis returns to his hometown to settle the affairs of his parents who had passed away years before. In searching for answers about his parents, he also discovers a new obstacle in PTSD. He finds support from church counselor, Tiffany Robertson (Keshia Knight-Pulliam) and slowly begins to rediscover his faith in God, until he discovers a secret. Travis uncovers a secret hidden by his best friend Donnie Berry (Robert Ri’chard) that threatens his new-found faith, restores his guilt, and causes him to consider the unthinkable."

This film was directed by Kevan Otto (A Question of Faith, Forgiven) and written by US Army Veteran Ty Manns (Question of Faith, The 5th Quarter). The film stars TC Stallings (War Room, A Question of Faith), Joey Lawrence (Melissa & Joey, Blossom, Hawaii Five-0), Robert Ri’chard (Coach Carter, Empire), and Keshia Knight Pulliam (The Cosby Show).

Church People Review + Giveaway



My husband and I had the pleasure of watching Church People. I must admit, I did not know where they were going with the storyline. It was very funny and by the end of it, I had tears in my eyes. What a powerful ending that brought everything back into focus.

This movie hits theaters and churches on March 13th so make sure to go and see it!



SYNOPSIS

"Weary from the showiness and materialism that has overtaken his ministry efforts, Guy (Ramsey) goes on a journey to get back in touch with the heart of ministry and be a real role model to his youth group kids. He makes the difficult decision to cut short his speaking tour managed by his money-focused agent (Faison) after realizing that his reputation has become more fame based than Gospel-driven.

But when Guy attempts to return to regular youth ministry, he is thrust into the throes of dissuading the youth group from performing a strange and potentially blasphemous stunt for the upcoming Easter service, starring a young, zealous new Believer, Blaise. In attempting to manage his youth group while navigating an unexpected love interest in the Senior Pastor’s daughter (Cahill) and being a new father to his grown daughter (Manfredi), Guy ultimately rediscovers and puts on a powerful presentation of why we all need to put our hope in Jesus and not in ourselves."


There is also a downloadable 5-session discussion guide.
