Leaving Limbo – A beautiful film with a beautiful message As we grow older we often think back to periods in our lives and wonder “whatever happened to those years?” Imagine if you were a promising young girl just out of high school and you suffer a horrendous accident that puts you in a coma [...]
When sitting down to what you think will be a faith movie it is surprising to hear a suspenseful musical chord and see the arrival of a train, a very Alfred Hitchcock opening. Doc Benson, the producer, director, and writer has surely taken a hint from the old master of suspense to give us a [...]
As a fan of of Corrie ten Boom I have been familiar with her books, The Hiding Place and Tramp for God. The film based on The Hiding Place is a classic, and we were very pleased to learn of her involvement in this new production, Return to the Hiding Place. We also know that the [...]
