It seems the women's ministry thing to do this time of year is to host a movie night. It makes perfect sense. The weather's yucky. Everyone's stuck inside. And movie nights are a fun way to get together with the girls. The problem comes when you try to find a movie to watch. So many…
Saturday, June 25, 2016 will go down as a night where God surprised us in the most unexpected way possible. We entered PROVIDENCE in the ICVM Crown Awards competition with much trepidation. We knew that ICVM was the industry organization and that the previous winners were top of the line films. But we took a…

Today we begin our promotional tour, heading to Atlanta so that I can speak at tomorrow's Faith in Film breakfast. I'm nervous but excited, feeling boosted by all the prayers going out on our behalf. When I was growing up, GA's and Acteens were a big part of my life. I always loved praying for…
Mrs. Hecker, my high school English teacher, was a brilliant woman with high expectations for our class of advanced English students. By the time we graduated, she wanted us to be able to write at the level of John Steinbeck. My expectations were much less lofty. I wanted to be the next Erma Bombeck. Literature…
