5/12/2017

Dr. Ted Baehr of Movieguide describes this film as: “absolutely brilliant…!"

"The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution."

Freedom at Risk
When Legislator Curtis Bowers remembered the Agenda that he had heard laid out at a Communist Party USA meeting over 20 years before, and compared it to the drastic changes in America's culture under President Obama, he wrote a letter to the Editor. It became the feature story on the evening news and people protested at the capitol. For weeks the local newspapers were filled with responses. He realised that he had hit on something very big. This led to producing this big-screen documentary which provides a fascinating look behind the scenes at the people and groups that have successfully targeted morality and freedom, with far-reaching consequences.

GOD'S NOT DEAD 2 - REVIEW

5/12/2017

"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you…" 1 Peter 3:15

Legal Harassment
This new film God's Not Dead 2, confronts the growing intolerance against Christianity in state run educational institutions in the USA. Based on numerous instances of legal harassment of school teachers, this film dramatizes the issues at stake. The school administration makes clear to a coach: "No prayers, not in the locker room, not on the field, not in the parking lot, no prayer, anywhere, anytime."

"And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in Heaven and on earth.
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the End of the age.” Amen.” Matthew 28: 18-20
