When I think of the word overcomer
several things pop into my head. Mainly, people in history that have
had to climb HUGE mountains in their life and have endured to the end.
Moses, Horatio Spafford, Harriet Tubman, Nelson Mandela, Louis Zamperini.
But the reality is, in some small
ways we are all overcomers. We all have things in our lives or times in
our lives that we have had to push through. The human spirit compels us
to just keep moving and not give up. What a gift from the Lord that is!
So, YES, I am excited about the new
Kendricks Brothers movie, OVERCOMER,
that is set to be released in movie theaters August 23. I am a sucker for
feel good movies and love when we find one that is family friendly. Not
an easy task in this day and time, for sure.
OVERCOMER is about a high
school basketball coach whose team faces some hurdles and leaves him without a
job. He agrees to fill in as the school's track coach, a sport is is
unfamiliar and unimpressed with. There he meets a young student facing
trials of her own and in the end learns a lot about what we allow and should allow to define us
as a person.
Cool
bonus! On the Overcomer
website you can find a parent guide,
family devotional and a sports team devotional as well! You can also
download posters and more! Grab your family or a group of friends and
make it a special outing and then time of good discussion.
ABOUT KENDRICK BROTHERS PRODUCTIONS
"Kendrick Brothers Productions is the company of
brothers Alex, Stephen and Shannon Kendrick that exists to honor God and share
the truth and love of Jesus Christ through movies, books, curriculum and speaking.
By blending engaging stories with doctrinal integrity, the Kendricks seek to
encourage and inspire audiences with resources that positively impact their
lives and strengthen their faith, families, and personal
relationships." (Facing the
Giants, War Room, Courageous)
“As people are walking out of the theater, we hope that
they begin to ask questions about where their identity is found, because too
often we find it in our circumstances, in our titles, in what other people are
saying about us, in our jobs, in our positions or awards. Those things can be
taken away,” said Stephen Kendrick.
“I hope moviegoers will realize their salvation is about
much more than just having a ticket to eternity. They were actually given a
brand-new identity.
