Alison's Choice Is A Wonderful Movie You Should Not Miss

I have the joy of telling you about one of the best new movies available on DVD right now. It's "Alison's Choice". This movie is one that will move you in so many ways, it's also a movie I can completely get behind..

The movie follows a young girl who becomes pregnant by a not so nice boyfriend and she is scared and confused about her future. She decides she is going to have an abortion and as she sits waiting in the abortion clinic for her name to be called she has an encounter with a janitor who turns out to not be just a janitor. He turns out to be the living God, Jesus Christ who has come to plead for the life of her baby.

I can't even begin to tell you how much this movie touched my heart and encouraged me in so many ways. The main theme of this film is abortion and pro-life and it will give people insight and a new understanding about abortion, which so many of us don't have. The majority of people really don't understand what goes on when an abortion happens. There are many powerful scenes including where we see Jesus weeping as girls go in a clinic and have their babies terminated. Jesus shows Alison what her baby will be like which gives her a perspective on that little one she had not even considered. One thing I was super excited to see in the film was the way it touches on why there is suffering in the world, explains free will and the choices we make and it also really brings home how much Jesus suffered on the cross because of His love for us, how much pain He was in when He took all of our sins upon Him, something all of us should know about.

That actors in this movie did an amazing job and it is one I can highly recommend to you and your family. I would not recommend for young children, but certainly teens and maybe even some preteens. It would also be an awesome thing to show to a youth group or even your whole church.

Here's a little more about it:

You can Win a DVD copy of Alison’s Choice a full-length feature film that seeks to answer the question, “WWJS (what would Jesus say) to a young woman planning abortion?”

She Is Changing The World In The Face Of Danger Daily

In our lifetime we get to learn about some of history's most influential people, people who have made a big difference in the world for the better of mankind. It amazes me sometimes what the motivation is behind these people. Why did they do what they did. How they got so passionate.

On Monday, February 29th, there is going to be a very special presentation on the National Geographic Channel, presented by 21st Century Fox of one person who is influencing the world. It is an exclusive broadcast premiere of He Named Me Malala.

I was privileged to be a part of an exclusive pre-premiere of this amazing movie in my home. I can say that I am very glad that I was a part of it. I was familiar with the story of Malala, but not the whole story, not the details that really made her who she is today. I was deeply moved by the passion of Malala and her father. She is committed to seeing the lives of people around her change for the better through education and knowledge. There is power in knowledge and she knows it.

HE NAMED ME MALALA is an intimate portrait of Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Malala Yousafzai, who was targeted by the Taliban and severely wounded by a gunshot when returning home on her school bus in Pakistan’s Swat Valley. The then 15-year-old was singled out, along with her father, for advocating for girls’ education, and the attack on her sparked an outcry from supporters around the world. She miraculously survived and is now a leading campaigner for girls’ education globally as co-founder of the Malala Fund.

Acclaimed documentary filmmaker Davis Guggenheim (An Inconvenient Truth, Waiting for Superman) shows us how Malala, her father Zia and her family are committed to fighting for education for all girls worldwide. The film gives us an inside glimpse into this extraordinary young girl’s life – from her close relationship with her father who inspired her love for education, to her impassioned speeches at the UN, to her everyday life with her parents and brothers.

Please, take a peek at what you can expect by watching this movie:

This movie is making an impact around the world and will be shown in 171 countries and in 45 languages thanks to National Geographic and 21st Century Fox. Who knows what kind of an impact this can make in the lives of girls, boys and women across the globe who have been denied a chance to have an education.

But you can help even more than just watching this movie. For every tweet with the hashtag of #withMalala, a $1 donation will be made to the Malala Fund to help further the education of girls and boys around the world by 21st Century Fox.

Please visit all the sites: #HeNamedMeMalala and/or #WithMalala

Alien Files

Demons at the Door director Roy Knyrim draws inspiration from one of the most high-profile UFO sightings ever recorded for this fact-based sci-fi thriller that recreates the infamous "Phoenix Lights" case. On March 13, 1997, community leaders, law enforcement officials, and countless everyday citizens in the southwestern United States witness a phenomenon that simply couldn't be dismissed by even the most hardened of skeptics. Jason Connery, Ashley Peldon, A.J. Cook, and Gwendoline Yeo star in a film that draws on transcripts taken during hypnotherapy sessions to explore precisely what happened to six strangers stranded on a forgotten road during that fateful close encounter.

With hidden cameras now aimed at them - trapping them in rooms, crawlspaces, underground tunnels - and filming their every move, David and Amy must struggle to get out alive before they end up the next victims on tape.

It could be the best way to win her heart... or the biggest mistake of his life. With more than one destination on his mind, Nick embarks on a road trip he'll never forget - and neither will you!
