Fox News (and Christian Cinema) has this article on October Baby, the faith-based movie based on a teenager who finds out she was nearly aborted. It is an underdog effort:
“I was shattered when I first learned about the story. I was moved and mesmerized. I wasn’t an activist, I was just someone who was shattered by the truth,” director Jon Erwin told FOX411’s Pop Tarts. “Here is our little film, small budget, in the top ten (at the box office). We are thrilled, blown away.”
It is amazing. Certainly an answer to prayer. More Jon Erwin:
“This film couldn’t find a home, no studio wanted to touch it. It was considered too controversial,” Erwin continued. “There was a real moment of despair at one point, the film wasn’t finished and nobody would take a look at it. But every time we screened it, it attracted such intense emotional reactions. So we had to raise the money ourselves, and the release process took much longer than we wanted.”
I plan to see it Easter weekend and will blog on it at that time. But here’s the website with info on how you can see it here in Richmond THIS weekend. The power of the evangelical dollar is strong! Use it! As the Scripture says, “Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.” (Romans 12:9 [KJV]) I do not usually agree with Rev. Kenneth Copeland but he said that if the market knew it would sell, the cereal boxes would have John 3:16 on them! (For more about the gift of eternal life in Jesus Christ, go here!)
