| 1922...Orphaned...the ache in his heart drove him on... Jimmy could not see the advantage of becoming a resident at the orphanage because of the pain that engulfed him. The affect of being abandoned by their mother, after his father died, consumed all five of the children. In the orphanage they at least had each other, but Jimmy was determined to find their mother and bring the family together again. Running away was his only answer. His trips away from the orphanage often led him into more trouble than he could resolve by himself. How could a child understand why Grandma Wilson and Uncle Marion kept sending him back to the orphanage? An education, food, and clothing meant so little to a young boy with an ache in his heart. Driven onward, Jimmy's devotion to his siblings was powered by his desire to see them united with their mother and once again living in the old homeplace. ----- "In the world in which children live there is nothing so finely perceived and so finely felt as injustice." --Charles Dickens |

| "Home Beyond the Sun" is the story of two girls, Jenna (Melyssa Ade) a 22-year old American teacher and the other Chu Lee (Molly Sayers) an eight-year old Chinese orphan. Together, with the help of the Lord and the guidance of His Word, they overcome the adversity of prejudice, persecution, and political oppression to find solace and protection in the bosom of a Christian family. This extraordinarily moving feature explores the social and political realities of China today. Produced, written and directed by award winning filmmakers of faith, this movie will enthrall the heart, elevate the spirit, and expand the awareness of committed men and women to these challenges. In this deeply committed visual adventure, the creative fire of Christian love warms the hearts of rebels with a cause. "Home Beyond the Sun" is a celebration of the human spirit as well as an eloquent description of religious virtue overcoming political vice. The uniquely pertinent story proves again that no man is an island. Here, discarded and disenfranchised daughters find strength through the community of Christian love. The movie is a microcosm of a society's attempts to eradicate their weakest members. They only fail to do so because of commitment to 2,000-year old tenets. This very special motion picture focuses on the irrefutable fact that while misused legislation can prohibit religious freedom, it cannot hold back the inevitable power of faith. "Home Beyond the Sun" transcends frontiers. It challenges the viewer to decide if certain laws are meant to be broken when promulgated by unjust governments. This contemporary tale of clashing cultures will resonate in your heart of hearts. Atheistic socialism may be the law of the land in China today, but Christianity is the doctrine of tomorrow. This film follows the first steps of the peaceful parade toward the revolution of the Word. This story of hope fulfilled is an enduring testament to the power of the Christian Message. In the mathematics of today's geo-politics, this important motion picture describes the billions of Chinese living on the mainland today; in the simpler arithmetic of the Christian spirit, we understand again and again how one and one when multiplied by the Word is infinitely more powerful. |

| No matter where you are in your own spiritual journey, no matter how little you know about the Bible, no matter how busy your schedule, you CAN grow your kids in Christian faith! Parents of faith are the most influential people in the lives of children - more than pastors, Sunday School teachers, youth workers, or teachers. Passing our faith to our kids is the responsibility of the church (home grown faith versus church grown faith). There are certain conditions that parents can intentionally create in the home that will leave a legacy of faith for their childre, grandchildren, and beyond. They include prayer and devotions; family acts of service; caring conversations; and rituals and traditions. Home Grown Faith will encourage and teach parents how they can shape the spiritual future of their kids one day at a time. |

| Middle class moms and dads have long sought safety for their children in the nurturing haven of the cul-de-sac. Like a safe harbor at the edge of an angry sea, the suburban neighborhood is an environment of protection from the world and all its dangers. Or is it? In Home Invasion, Rebecca Hagelin proves that in today's all-consuming culture of corruption there is nowhere left to hide-American homes have already been invaded by this insidious enemy that seeks to twist our minds and poison our hearts through the unmonitored Internet, television, magazines, and music that our families ingest on a daily basis. Speaking as a nationally known social commentator and as a mother of three, Hagelin shows through specific examples and alarming statistics how the enemy has infected the family van, our neighborhood schools and textbooks, the stores in which we shop, and even the churches in which we worship. With warm words of encouragement and practical suggestions, she coaches parents on how to arm themselves with information, strategically plan the movements of their family members, secure allies in the battle, and most of all, muster the guts and the resolve to lead their families to victory against the great beast. |
