The Sound of True Freedom

Great movies are rare, and "Sound of Freedom" is a rare, great movie.

Written by Greg Stier | Wednesday, August 9, 2023

The real problem reflected in this movie—and in this fallen world—is the pure evil lodged deep in the human heart. The root of evil that is in the heart of the worst sex trafficker is in our hearts as well.   I’m a movie freak—always have been. Even when I was a committed-to-Christ teenager attending...

Barbie’s Sparkling Pink Gnosticism

Movie tells women to do everything except what their bodies are created to do

Written by Katelyn Walls Shelton | Friday, August 4, 2023

Gerwig’s task as Barbie’s director was to create a movie that celebrated the doll while also acknowledging her controversial status in American culture. But if Barbie is a symbol of unattainable beauty standards, the Barbie movie is a symbol of incoherent feminist standards. Where earlier waves of feminism sought for women’s equal participation in democracy and the marketplace as women,... Continue Reading

Why the World Needs to See “Sound of Freedom”

Americans must demand the end to policies that promote these atrocities and to raise awareness that they are happening.

Written by Nathan Skates | Thursday, July 20, 2023

The movie is based on the account of Tim Ballard, an agent with the Department of Homeland Security, who for 12 years helped arrest pedophiles who downloaded child exploitation material. Despite arresting 288 criminals, he had not been able to rescue many children who were victims of the atrocity. “Sound of Freedom” depicts his crusade after... Continue Reading

Sex Trafficking Drama ‘Sound of Freedom’ Is a Heartbreaking and Hopeful Call to Action

This story can change people’s hearts and inspire them to do something about child slavery.

Written by Aaron Gleason | Tuesday, July 18, 2023

This film might not depict anything visually distasteful, but it is not for the weak-hearted and is difficult to watch. It is honest about what this world is and does. I heard crying throughout the entire theater audience — it is beyond moving. At the end of the film, I wanted to clap, but it... Continue Reading

The Holy Sexuality Project

The Holy Sexuality Project addresses many of today’s most urgent issues on matters of sex and sexuality.

Written by Tim Challies | Monday, July 17, 2023

The Holy Sexuality Project is a series comprised of 12 lessons. Christopher Yuan begins by telling his story and then progresses to matters of identity, attraction, and action. In these lessons, he discusses the image of God, the doctrine of sin, and the nature of desire and temptation. He explains why God created sex and... Continue Reading

Sound of Freedom: The Story of One Man’s War on Child Trafficking

Review: One man, Tim Ballard, has made it his life’s mission to fight this evil and rescue as many of its innocent victims as he can.

Written by Janet Levy | Friday, July 14, 2023

Hopefully, Sound of Freedom will help encourage people to speak out. However, the exploitation of children is not just about Epstein and secret Hollywood parties. The film will shock ordinary people and show them how nefarious worldwide networks operate and what it takes to battle them. When Ballard thought of quitting his job and going it alone... Continue Reading

The Bible Is Still Relevant, Despite What You May Have Heard

The latest episode of the Colson Center’s What Would You Say? video series offers a response to the claim that “the modern world has moved beyond the Bible.”

Written by John Stonestreet and Michaela Estruth | Sunday, July 9, 2023

Every video in the What Would You Say? series offers thoughtful, reasoned, and reliable answers to common cultural questions. This video explains how the Bible shaped Western culture, how the Bible’s description of reality provided the grounding for modern science, and why there will be a growing demand for the Bible as more and more... Continue Reading

Movie Review: Nefarious

"Nefarious" is a modern-day take on C.S. Lewis’s famous "The Screwtape Letters."

Written by Mark Powell | Wednesday, July 5, 2023

There is so much to appreciate about this film, and not just because it’s a good movie. Nefarious is a theologically orthodox explanation about God, the Devil, and the cosmic battle which occurs every day for a person’s soul.   Nefarious is the best movie you’re likely not to see in 2023. Why that is the case has nothing... Continue Reading

Jesus Revolution Presents a Relevant Revival

The “Jesus Revolution”: a film exploring the genesis of the Jesus Movement that began among drugged-out hippies in the late 1960s in California and rapidly spread nationally and even internationally.

Written by David Ayers | Thursday, March 30, 2023

What we see is the genesis of an unplanned spiritual juggernaut that ultimately swept the country and led to the evangelical conversion of millions, including many outside the hippy subculture from which it sprang. This movement was rooted in the plain, unadorned teachings of the Bible and emphasized turning away from sin to uncompromising faith... Continue Reading

The Success of “Avatar” Is Nothing to Celebrate

The sequel to the record-breaking box office success Avatar is here. The enemy is still America/Europeans. The victims this time: whales.

Written by Titus Techera | Wednesday, February 8, 2023

Intellectually, the Avatar stories seem worthless, beneath contempt, indeed, beneath argument. This leads people to underestimate them but also to feel themselves somehow disarmed. One looks ridiculous if one complains that the stories are anti-American. It takes a certain courage to deal with that problem, and courage is in very short supply in our times.   The...
