"I am the Vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing." (John 15:5) It is our desire to always abide in JESUS CHRIST, our Lord and Savior, and to bear much fruit...hence "Fruitbearers."
"The fruit of the Spirit is LOVE, JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS, GENTLENESS, and SELF-CONTROL. Against such things there is no law." Galatians 5:22-23

DVD Review: Caged No More
Caged No More is a powerful film about human trafficking, inspired by true events. Aggie Prejean (played by Loretta Devine) is on an urgent mission to find her missing two granddaughters, Skye and Elle, who have been taken out of the country by their own father, Jack (played by Kevin Sorbo). The only lead she has is the laptop Jack left behind. The only help she finds is Jack's twin brother, Richard (the girls' uncle) who is a wealthy & well-known man in Louisiana, his wife, Lottie, and their son, Wil, who is former Special Forces. Regardless of the dire circumstance, Aggie puts her trust and hope in the Lord. Aggie, Wil, and his friend, Tyler travel to Greece to search for the girls. Wil and his Greek friend, Aeton go through brothels after brothels. Will it be too late? What happened to the girls? Watch this remarkable, eye-opening DVD to find out! Caged No More (PG-13) successfully portrays the horrendous realities of human trafficking and the peace made possible by faith in Christ and prayer. Did you know that human trafficking is the world's fastest growing global crime? Sex slavery is happening all over the world and this sickening business of sex trade must be stopped. Approximately 27 million people are enslaved world wide. 1.2 million children are trafficked each year. This tear-jerking, heart-wrenching movie is well made and carries such an important message; I highly recommend it! Let's be active in fighting against human-trafficking!

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...
