I can honestly say that whenever I see a Kendrick brothers movie on the horizon I get pretty excited to see what God will be doing next. Overcomer that comes out this August, will be the 6th movie for the Kendrick brothers. Movies like War Room, Courageous and Fireproof just to name a few. The next chapter in their film legacy, Overcomer will surely be a life-changing film as well. “OVERCOMER in many regards, is a discovery of who we are in Christ, who gets to determine our identity and what we have to overcome to embrace the life God has for us,” said Alex Kendrick. In a day and age where everyone seems to be struggling with their identity, Overcomer deals with this struggle head-on. The movie involves a young girl who is not your typical cross-country runner. Not only is she dealing with her own identity in Christ crisis but a health issue as well. As a former cross country runner, I can personally attest to the grueling sport. Having not only personal but physical battles this young girl has, she can only be but an overcomer herself. Movie Synopsis: Life changes overnight for coach John Harrison when his high school basketball team’s state championship dreams are crushed under the weight of unexpected news. When the largest manufacturing plant in town suddenly shuts down and hundreds of families begin moving away, John must come to grips with the challenges facing his family and his team. Urged by the school’s principal to fill-in and […]

If you only saw the movie, you may not know is there is more to his story, Unbroken: Path to Redemption is a look at what happened next. On September 14th, UNBROKEN: PATH TO REDEMPTION by Pure Flix films hits the big screen. I was blessed with the opportunity to not only watch the movie early but also give away Fandango movie passes for some of my readers to get to see it for free between now and Oct 14th or until UNBROKEN: PATH TO REDEMPTION is no longer in theaters whichever happens first. Honestly, I was not sure what to expect from a follow up film to one that was so epic in the lives it impacted as Unbroken. I will say (without giving too much away), that this film can stand on it’s own merits. Even for those that somehow missed the first film, they will be able to dive right into where the film picks up. By the end of the film will likely want to see the first one if they had not yet. Those that saw the first installment of Unbroken, know that this is a different chapter in Louis’ life that might catch some by surprise. The battles and demons that he fought as a POW carried over to when he is home. During his time of fame and what should have been the best years of his life, he […]
