Now Available

I was blessed to perform in a few scenes with Kevin and Sam Sorbo in the film Jesus Freaks. Also, their daughter Octavia Flynn Sorbo plays my character's daughter. 


The film is now available, and you can rent or buy it at www.JesusFreaksMovie.com. 

Here's the trailer:

We were blessed to attend two premieres.


The first was a surprise to the filmmaker's husband. Nina May created the film as a 50th anniversary gift. What a rush to be in the theatre and yell, "Surprise!!!" when he walked in! The film is roughly based on the story of their courtship. 

The second premiere was at the Museum of the Bible in downtown Washington, D.C. Braeden Sorbo, who plays the male lead, was in attendance, along with our friends from What's a Girl to Do? Cheryl Felicia Rhoads and Mell Flynn. 


Cheryl and I had another cast reunion with Cynthia McDowell, Christian Alzona, and Bellina Lambdin who performed with us in Star Spangled Adventures. Cheryl was casting director for Jesus Freaks and Star Spangled Adventures. 


We were also super blessed to see Isabella R. Lash (pictured here) at the premiere. She was a former student of mine at the MasterWorks Festival. She plays a friend and mentor of the lead in Jesus Freaks.


CBN just aired an interview with Nina about her film: 

Jesus Freaks tells an East Coast story of the Jesus People Movement of the '70s. Pray it helps fuel the current Revival rising around the world.

Jesus Revolution tells the story of the Jesus People Movement from the West Coast perspective. You can catch my articles and interviews about that film at www.RichDrama.com/blog/tag/Jesus-Revolution.

Performed with the Sorbos

I was so blessed to perform in the upcoming film Jesus Freaks! It's based on events that happened in 1972, during the Jesus Movement. 


I play the adult son of a pastor who tries to stifle the uncontrollable work the Holy Spirit is doing in the youth of his church. My character's daughter is played by Octavia Flynn Sorbo (photo to the left), the daughter of Kevin and Sam Sorbo, who were also in the film, and their son Braeden plays one of the leads. 


The writer/director Nina May (First Lady, Daily Bread) is working on a distribution deal now. Join us in praying for as broad of an audience as possible. 


We saw a rough cut at its premiere. We're praying it will have a powerful impact on those who see it, and that it will help propel the revival that's rising on so many college and university campuses, including many secular schools. 


I was blessed that Cheryl Felicia Rhoads (left in photo to the right) and Mell Flynn (right in the photo to the right) of What's a Girl to Do? were also in our cast! Joyce and I connected with them at the premiere.
