I feel you. The moment you consider the wisdom of watching something on television. Anything on television. Or any other method by which you feel like unwinding after a day. Our choices for entertainment are absolutely pitiful these days. There is little redemptive value in what we as a society are allowing into our hearts, minds, and souls. The violence, the sex, the outright celebration of demonic enterprise. It is disgusting. Even animated shows for kids are laced with this filth. And worse, it's intentional. This must change. Enter a couple of godly men who aim to produce faith films with messages of hope and redemption in a way the Church at large hasn't seen. What they produce is real and raw and human. I think you will enjoy our conversation to day about ways we can all change the landscape of the mountian of arts and entertainment. #film #filmmaking #filmmaker #filmdirector #filmproduction #filmactor #christianfilm #crosspurposesproduction #podcast #television #entertainmentnews #entertainment #christianentertainment *** David Alford is a producer, director, writer, and Founder of Cross Purposes Productions.
