Film Review: Voiceless

Voiceless (PG-13) is an excellent pro-life film presented with passion, compassion, and understanding. Jesse Dean (Rusty Joiner), a discharged war veteran, starts his new job as a community outreach leader at New Life Fellowship Church in Philadelphia. He notices there's an abortion clinic right across the street from the church. He knows he must take action to stop the ongoing killing in that clinic. Sadly, he receives opposition from community, church, and even his own wife, Julia (Jocelyn Cruz) who is afraid he may lose his job or get arrested. Both Jesse and Julia still wrestle with their past that keeps haunting them. Pastor Gil Solomon (James Russo) tries to protect the reputation of his church and chooses to turn the other way, avoiding the problem right outside the church's door. One man (Jesse) refuses to stay silent and do nothing. He chooses to do what he believes it's right, no matter what the consequences may be. His faith and courage are to be commended.

Voiceless tackles the issue of abortion realistically with its physical, emotional, mental, & spiritual implications. It also addresses the church's complacency towards the abortion problem. Yes, getting involved means confrontation, risk, sacrifice but it also means making a difference to save someone's life, to help the women (with unplanned pregnancy) and protect the unborn. Voiceless shows that it takes one man to lead and open the eyes of others to the urgent need. It encourages people to take a stand for life, to be a voice for the voiceless, to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. I enjoyed watching this film and applaud the film makers' conviction. Great performances by the cast! I'm certain that the powerful message in Voiceless will resonate with audience. I highly recommend this inspiring film which will be in theaters on October 7, 2016!

DVD Review and Giveaway: A Mile in His Shoes

A Mile in His Shoes is a family-friendly movie (PG) about a young man diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome (a form of autism) and how his God-given talent (his amazing throwing ability) helps him and others. It's about overcoming challenges in life. It is based on the book "The Legend of Mickey Tussler" (a true story). It's directed by William Dear, the director of "Angels In the Outfield." It stars Dean Cain who plays Arthur Murphy, a baseball coach and Luke Schroder who plays Mickey, the main character. Excellent performances! My family and I enjoyed this movie. It spoke to my heart deeply because one of my kids has symptoms that are similar to Asperger's Syndrome but the doctors diagnosed him with anxiety disorder, instead. My son is very athletic and great with numbers like Mickey. He is also sensitive to noise and crowds like Mickey. When Coach Murphy sees Mickey (a farmer boy) throw apples at a bucket for his pigs, he knows that he has just fo
