I'm excited to tell you about a new Feeln 's original series called, "The Eleventh" (TV-PG). I was given an opportunity to watch the first episode. I really enjoyed it and can't wait to see the next episode :)! The Eleventh is about a teenage girl's journey to reconnect with her estranged grandmother. Janine (Ren Harris) delivers an envelope to Margaret (Cloris Leachman), her maternal grandma whom she thinks she has never met, upon her mother's request before she died. Margaret did not have a good relationship with her daughter, Dana (Janine's mom) and son-in-law, Neil (Christopher Atkins). How Margaret treated her daughter is similar to how my mom treated me so I can relate to the story very well. Against her father's wishes, Janine is determined to spend time with Margaret. Wonderful performance from the cast! I am hooked after the first episode. The series covers themes of family, forgiveness, love, healing, relationship, and more. It also star...

Review: Mothers love their sons. But mothers need to respect their sons, too, whether they deserve it or not. Often moms have difficulty relating to their sons, especially as they get older. This book comes to the rescue! Mother & Son shows moms why respect is so important to sons, what respect looks like and sounds like, what God expects of a mother, how to apply respect-talk, what boys and men innately desire, and more.

" For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

He and his wife, Haley (Gwendolyn Edwards) moves into a rental house owned by Webster Kane (Michael Monks).

"To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you." (Lewis B. Smedes) Chasing Grace is a wonderful DVD about the power of grace and forgiveness. A pastor's happy family is shattered by a tragic accident that takes their youngest member's life. Pastor Jonathan Mattheson struggles with unforgiving heart, guilt, shame, and desire for vengeance. To deal with his loss, he finds it easier to put all his energy into being mad at and getting even with his brother whom he blames for his daughter's death. But it only makes matters worse. I think most people (if not all) can relate to issues of blaming, addiction, secrets, difficulty to forgive others and selves, and family relationships played out in this movie. The cast did a good job. The message is important. Nobody is beyond God's grace! May we give grace to others and forgive others as Jesus has done for us! Hope you'll check out Chasing Grace! ~I received a free cop...
