Stand for freedom by watching AVERAGE JOE, in theaters NOW!

In AVERAGE JOE, high school football coach Joe Kennedy had no other choice but to fight. A childhood in foster care followed by 20 years in the Marine Corps was nothing compared to his biggest battle: his commitment to stand for God publicly by taking a knee in prayer after each game. When he was fired, Joe and his wife Denise knew this battle for religious freedom, freedom of speech, and the rights of all Americans was one they would have to fight—no matter the cost. From the director and producers of God’s Not Dead and the producers of The Blind comes AVERAGE JOE, in theaters beginning October 11.

[Review] — "THE HITCHCOCK HOTEL" is a Thriller Written for Alfred Hitchcock Fans

Billy Burgess books ,

I'm a lifelong horror fan, and Pyscho, directed by the late great Alfred Hitchcock, is my second favorite slasher movie—right behind John Carpenter's Halloween. So, it should be no surprise that I was eager to read THE HITCHCOCK HOTEL by Stephane Wrobel, the USA TODAY Bestselling Author of DARKLING ROSE GOLD.

Be Brave. Choose Kind. You forget many things in life. But you never forget kindness. WHITE BIRD is a deeply moving coming of-age story and testament to the courage it takes to extend kindness and love during the harshest of times.

From the world of Wonder, which sparked a movement to "choose kind," comes the inspirational next chapter: WHITE BIRD. Struggling to fit in at his new school after being expelled for his treatment of Auggie Pullman, Julian (Bryce Gheisar) is visited by his grandmother (Helen Mirren) and is transformed by the compassionate and heroic story of her attempts to escape Nazi-occupied France during WWII. From the director of Finding Neverland, WHITE BIRD reminds us to be brave and choose kind.

*Weekly Tidbits*

The plumbing problems have returned; left a message with the plumber, but it's the weekend, so next week, maybe. The toilets are flushing—for now. Thus, I'll be spending this morning at the laundry mat.

The New York Yankees knocked the Kansas City Royals out of the playoffs. Hopefully, they can acquire some power hitters in the offseason.
