Courageous

Sherwood Pictures, the film company that created FIREPROOF, recently made an announcement that its next film would focus on the topic of fathers taking leadership in their homes.  Like ONE GOOD MAN, they have focused on God’s message in Malachi 4:6.  OGM hits the screens in fall 2010, followed by COURAGEOUS in early 2011.  Imagine, back-to-back movies about fatherhood. The writer and director of OGM, Manny Edwards, recently said, “God is clearly moving to turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers, as God promised in the Bible.”

“We are excited about Sherwood Pictures’ announcement for COURAGEOUS. It’s thrilling to see the last words of the Old Testament seemingly being underscored by God by His drawing such wonderfully accomplished filmmakers as the Kendrick brothers to magnify those words through their film coming after ours,” explained Mike Snyder, OGM producer.

We are truly seeing a revolution in film.  Just as we are hoping to see fathers rise up in leadership in their homes, we are seeing Christians rise up in leadership in cinema.  No longer is the church content to follow the trends dictated by Hollywood.  They are moving toward the forefront of the industry to redeem cinema for Christ.
