This is the house.
Champion it ...link in bio.
This is why I built @WatchStuDEO.
We are adapting George MacDonald’s The Princess and the Goblin, the book behind Lewis and Tolkien, as an animated feature.
Next: In The Arena, with Survivor's Benjamin "Coach" Wade.
Films a child can grow up inside. Truth, Goodness, Beauty. Faith, family, freedom.
Follow @WatchStuDEO and tap the link in my bio if you want that pipeline to exist.
What is the last film you trusted with your kids?
ALT Project Live Pipeline - The Princess and the Goblin - In Development
Why faith-and-family stories?
Because we believe families should still go to the movies together, and they want films that are worth the trip.
A good story can help a child learn courage long before anyone names it.

Craft note from The Princess and the Goblin: Most of the story happens in two places: the bright tower of her castle farmhouse and the dark mines.
How we light each one tells the audience what to hope for before anyone speaks.

This is the house! Let’s GOOOOOOOO!
We reclaim by telling our own stories of faith, family and heritage, and freedom purchased by the blood of our bravest, in service to the One True King who died, and was raised to seat an eternal throne.
The story of The Princess and the Goblin is our first.
Believe. Trust.

Please, ask around your city and find churches that minister directly to the addicted and/or homeless.
If you are in or near Roanoke, VA, for instance, look up Belmont Presbyterian Church and their Street Level Sanctuary ministry. Ask around the city about them, then give!
This was a really poor decision by Goodwill. It’s all donations - they get everything for free.
I will no longer be donating.

If we truly want to advance civilization, we'll need to shore up Western culture, beginning with a return to our core, Founding values.
Entertainment grounded in truth, goodness, and beauty, and focused on stories of Faith, Family, and Freedom is a great place to start!
It really is.
The mission is advancement of civilization and propagation of consciousness to the stars.

Hands on in a community dedicated to first principles and art according to the mind of the maker!
Reviving the Golden Age of story and cinema requires a Stewardship of Excellence, total transparency, and the untapped flow of creators willing to do the work to execute the craft!
Indeed!
We don't need no stinkin' permission! No more sausage grinding!
History levels the most persuasive arguments against the broadest conceptions of the "Institutional."
Art in general (the fine arts specifically) is the most notable field of the independent, supported almost without exception and certainly with very little doubt or fear of contradiction, by the Patron. This, for centuries, has been a medium of choice for theological expression of faithful craftsmen.
In the cinematic arts, the Hollywood Industrial Complex is no exception. Like the majority of our cultural "institutions" (education, medicine, law, politics, and so forth), the motion picture arts and infrastructure were founded and built by independent, entrepreneurial men and women of orthodox faith (Protestant first!).
What we failed to do is raise up the ensuing generations of craftsmen to inhabit and exploit the cutting edge technologies and inventions with an equally tenacious theology of the creative in the image of our Creator.
I am convinced it is never too late! I have co-founded and will soon launch @WatchStuDEO to revive the Golden Age of story and cinema.
No more demands to be allowed! No more grinding out sausage!

We need more "Normies" rising up with the common sense of normal.
And we need to tell our own "Normie stories!"
We're about to launch into the culture shaping fray with a heaping helping of Normies...
Who DO things! Big things!
Tell our co-founder @2undermercy you're all in!

The rocks don't blend so easily...and a bitter aftertaste, to be sure!

A5 - Ooooph! Missed this one...
The answer here (probably true 4 everyone) decades in the making, and has manifested different ways during different "epochs" of our family life, in a web of the extended fam.
Challenging in every circumstance!
#HealthyFaithChat
Q5. How has your commitment to Christ affected your relationship with your family?
A5- Pt. 2- Times of alienation, despair, and the sense of "What have I done wrong!
Times of joy and celebration, in the absolute awe of "Look what God has done!"
Net positive out of the flames, all said and done!

I'll cheat a bit, and bring a few soils together in a reality mashup!
An uncultivated good soil, a stoney and weed-filled challenge to keep the "good works" of obedience and faith in a don't fail to do the good things kind of mindset.
#HealthyFaithChat
Q8. From the Parable of the Sower, what kind of soil do you think most often represents you? Explain.
#HealthyFaithChat
Chaotic OCD experience!

Q7. What three words would you use to describe your spiritual life?
This is it, in the way my convoluted thinking would end up!
#HealthyFaithChat
#HealthyFaithChat
Absolutely! Butthis was based on the Lord saying those who do Hie Father's will are His mother, sister, and brother, like faith demonstrated by works.
OK, honestly, I'm a bit out of practice, but this points to an interesting, challenging distinction re: works. I'm thinking of the "Like Father, like son" commercials from back in the day. And trying to make sense of these faith-filled challenging questions.
#HealthyFaithChat
A3 I may be nitpicking, but doesn't our faith and God's grace make us Christ's sibling? And not works of our own?
#HealthyFaithChat
Kindred Spirits! Twin brothers of different parents! But in a totally Anne Shirley sort of way...Kindred, indeed!
#HealthyFaithChat
So you and Bob are buddies??? Who knew?
#HealthyFaithChat
A2 - Those who do the will of his Father. A simply profound statement when you consider the overwhelming cultural view that we are ALL God's children.

Q2. Jesus’ family came looking for Him to take Him home. In response, whom did Jesus designate as His “family”? Why?
