I am happy to bring you another faith-based film. The Short Game is an inspiring new film that explores themes of perseverance, identity, and faith—all through the lens of competitive junior golf. It’s a heartfelt journey for the whole family that highlights character as much as competition. The Short Game is coming to theaters on August 29th, 2025.
About The Short Game
An uplifting, family-friendly film that follows the journeys of young golfers from around the world as they compete in one of the most prestigious youth golf tournaments on the planet.
Among them is Jeremy Avery, a determined teen vying for a college golf scholarship awarded to the winner of the State Championship. But Jeremy’s preparation and performance are challenged by family pressures—especially his responsibility to care for his younger autistic brother, Ethan. As he carries the weight of his team and faces an opponent willing to do anything to win, Jeremy embarks on a journey of discovery, uncovering not only his own resilience but also Ethan’s remarkable, savant-like gifts. Together, they just might become an unstoppable pair. But on the brink of his greatest victory, Jeremy is faced with a life-altering decision: chase his personal dream or stand by his brother.
Come back for my review on or after August 26th

The full season of Testament is available on Angel.com, the Angel App, and is available to all Angel Guild members.
I am so excited to bring you Testament,which is a powerful new series from Angel Studios that reimagines the Book of Acts in a bold, modern-day setting. Through immersive storytelling and rich visual style, the series brings the early church to life—highlighting the courage, conviction, and sacrifice of the first believers. This is a fresh take on Scripture that will inspire audiences of all ages.
The Book of Acts is explosively reimagined in an alternate-modern era. A resurrection sparks a movement that turns the world upside down, spreading hope amid chaos. As the followers risk everything to preach the good news, the Temple races to silence them before the oppressive Imperium regime retaliates. But public miracles, unburied secrets, and fractured loyalties force both sides to confront the true cost of their choices. This series will challenge you, move you, and make you rethink what it means to truly follow Jesus. With the modern setting, you'll relate to these people and stories like never before.

My review
First and fore-most this series gave me goosebumps more than once as well as feelings of something moving within me. It is centered in a kind of dark and dismal world that isn't like our actual world. Wish it had made it more like how the world is today instead of a distopian world so it would hit a bit harder. It also took me a while to figure out which character matched the people in the Bible. My favorite episodes so far is One Accord which is the third episode. All in all this was a good series but could have been tweeked a little more to our currant world to get the word out stronger.

Many thanks to Pinnacle Peak Pictures for providing a sample of the product for this review. My opinions are 100% my own.
A powerful cinematic Biblical journey that brings to life the ultimate act of love and sacrifice as seen through the eyes of those who walked alongside Jesus.
I am excited to see so many faith-based movies and shows especially when they are about the time and people of the Bible and Jesus. It brings the words to life which can strengthen your walk and or relationship with Jesus.
Check back here after 3/12 for my review.

Growing up in the church, you hear about the story of Jesus all the time. What you don't get is how it might have been in between verses of the Bible. The movie The Last Supper did a great job with visuals. I love the opening scenes and the quick show of feeding the multitude. It shows how the Last Supper might have been, and not all dressed up like it has been perceived in paintings. It shows just how much turmoil Judas might have been going through before he turned on Jesus for a mere 30 pieces of silver.
I did feel they rushed towards the end because the movie was about The Last Supper and other movies have been made about his crucifixion, so that was where things went a bit more quickly. They only included enough to give you the feeling of hope and awe when he rises again after his death. It was a good movie when you understand it sets up the characters quickly, not all of his disciples are named, and the main theme was about how the Last Supper might have been. For those who haven't read or been taught about Jesus this is a good way to get a little information so that you can grow your knowledge about his life.

Many thanks to I Am Living Proof the Movie for providing a sample of the product for this review. Opinions are 100% my own.
I Am Living Proof is a compelling and intimate look into the lives of three individuals who face an extraordinary life-altering event.
Bri, once a promising student, finds her academic dreams derailed by an illness that’s deteriorating her body. For seven years, she’s caught in a cycle of failed medical treatments and excruciating pain, pushing her toward assisted suicide.
Steve’s life spirals out of control after a workplace accident leaves him dependent on opioids. Jobless and desperate, he attempts to end it all with an overdose.
Mary, a mother of five, faces debilitating pain from a spinal injury that leaves her unable to care for her children until a vivid dream sparks an unexpected turning point.
Unbeknownst to them, their paths are about to intersect with Mario Murillo, a traveling preacher who’s spent his life sharing God’s love and healing power when his old-school-style tent revival happens to be in town. This chance encounter challenges their beliefs and offers a glimmer of hope in their darkest hours.
I Am Living Proof chronicles their transformative experiences as we together meet the real God of miracles.
In the summer of 2022, thousands gathered under a revival tent in Colorado Springs as churches across the community joined forces to host renowned evangelist Mario Murillo. Among the countless testimonies of healing that emerged, three extraordinary stories from local residents captured the attention of director Bob Maddux and producer Shane Gilbert. These compelling accounts of transformation each uniquely powerful - demanded to be shared with a broader audience, leading to the creation of this groundbreaking documentary.
Check out the trailer for I Am Living Proof below.
Watch this powerful documentary in theaters starting March 9th!

First and foremost, I have personally been healed and have seen healing in my lifetime, as well as many miracles. My life is a story of ups and downs, but through it all, I can see each time Jesus was in control, even when things seemed dim. After the fact, we could see where he worked on his plan for my life.
I love seeing miracles and healing being done in people's lives which I am Living Proof shows happening by showing back stories of the people who were touched by God and where they are today. Even with seeing miracles and healing, I am always amazed by the love of God.
I am Living Proof shows the strength of God and what he can do in someone's life. It gives hope to those who have lost all hope. These are the kinds of things we need to see on a daily basis. It also shows some scenes of the Doctors or specialists who were trying to help these people before their healing and then what they had to say after these people were healed. A true testimony to what Jesus can do for you.
Sometimes as a Christian myself who has seen miracles and healing I need a reminder like this to get me through the day and remember just how far I have come in my battle with health issues.
I really can't say anything bad about this film but wish they could have shown more healing and miracles that happened.
