To Save A Life (movie review)

This is a copy of my review as posted on the Youth Specialties website.
Have you ever longed for a movie to be made by a Christian that depicted life in a much more realistic way? Where people who began a relationship with Christ didn’t suddenly have it all together, score the winning touchdown, get [...]

Bedtime Stories (Movie Review)

But I [...]

No, I am not talking about the Newsboys song. I am talking about all the boycotting that Christians feel that they need to do. There was a time when I used to agree with boycotting everything and anything that a Christian leader feels I need to boycott. I have received emails telling [...]
