This  is my new favorite movie, and that's only changed twice since 1981: Chariots of Fire and Risenare the only ones to have held that place in my heart since junior high.

The Case for Christ tells the true story of how Lee Strobel, a hard-boiled, a...

We saw a fantastic production of Pilgrim's Progress last week put on by The Glory Shop. I was proud of Alexis Duperree and Nealson Munn, who were my students at the Salvation Army Conservatory where I teach and direct most summers.

I got to serve as a consultant on this charming film in which children play adults. It's by the makers of A Matter of Perspective, and they've done a fantastic job!

It's available at www.ChristianCinema.com.

Though I've lived in New York City since 1993 I grew up in the Rogue Valley, so I try to get back here as often as I can. Often I perform or screen a film I helped make when I'm here. Hope you'll sign up and that we can connect soon!

Joyce teaches on Matthew 18:21-35. Dr. Linda Warren opens the service in prayer.

The one that impressed me the most is that he holds the all-time 40 season winning percentage of .813 (Dayton High School, South Bend Central High School, Indian...

ISIS destroyed this church in Syria.

A few years ago,  Jordan Allott was interviewed on FOX NEWS during the same program as Father Gabriel Adde, a Syrian Orthodox priest. After the program Jordan met with the Adde family and soon struck up a conversation with Fr. Adde's daughter Helma. After co...

Colonel Julio Moreno invited us to Cuba to perform my 1-man play Views of the Manger. While visiting with them we heard the stories of how he moved from being an atheist to being the head of the ...
