@gracie-j. I wanna find a guy like Wyatt one day. XD I don’t know why Dorothy loves Eaton anyways!(I know she has since childhood, but still!) I’m like: “Just look around Dotty! Wyatt loves you, I can tell! He’s such a Southern Gentleman, just love him already! Eaton’s bad for you anyways!” (#YellingAtFictitiousCharacters. A reader and writer thing. XD) Eaton forced her to get on the plane even though she didn’t want to! Ugh. Ranting about Eaton. That could go on all day. XD
Amen Sister! We absolutely need more movies like Beyond the Mask. I love Marvel movies and all, but good, wholesome, Historical Christian movies will still trump them everytime. 😉 I also love the short, itty bitty scene of Will in the prison cell with the Preacher. That scene always makes me smile. Another one of my favorite movies is Faith of our Fathers. It’s a Christian movie about the Vietnam War! Fair waring though, watch the movie, but before you do, grab a big box of tissues! That movie makes me cry EVERY SINGLE TIME! XD Either way though, I love it. There’s also a movie I want to watch, Indivisible, about an Army Chaplain(a true story by the way!)that’s centered around the war in Iraq. It looks like a good Christian movie. It’ll probably make me cry too though. But oh well. Good movies often do. 😉

Me too!! I KNOW RIGHT YOU TELL HER!!! XDD
YES!! Aw, same here! I’ve seen Faith of Our Fathers several times, and I’ve seen Indivisible as well! Tbh, I wasn’t a huge fan of Indivisible – it seemed to go too fast and brush over a lot of the PTSD struggles (which I’m very familiar with because of my grandfather, and I’m a huge advocate for proper representation of PTSD) – but it was still good! I think you’d enjoy it! AND YOU MUST WATCH I STILL BELIEVE!!! It’s based on the true story of Jeremy Camp and his first wife, and it’s SO SWEET AND SAD!!! *heart breaks* You’d love it.

@gracie-j. Oh, don’t worry. I will. XD XD XD
Oooh, yay! Another Faith of our Fathers fan as well! (Seems we have similar tastes, Grace. XD) Aw I still think I’ll like it, but I wish people wouldn’t pass over the realities of PTSD so much. There are so many people that struggle or have struggled with it. Absolutely, being an advocate for proper representation of PTSD is awesome and something I’m totally behind as well! 😉 I’ve heard so much about I Still Believe. I’ll watch it one day and hopefully soon. (I’ll just need to grab that big box of tissues I talked about…XD)
If you want to read about someone that struggled with PTSD and found healing, have you ever heard of Louis Zamperini? He was a WWII Vet, Famous Olympic Runner, Pacific POW, and his story is told in a book and two, yes, TWO, movies! The first movie isn’t Christian, but the second one is! The first one is still great though, it just has cussing and stuff like that in it and one definitely questionable scene that I skip, but otherwise is great. (Though don’t watch either of them, especially the first one, with littles around! They’re both, mostly the first one, very violent!) But the movies do stray a bit away from complete accuracy, so if you want the complete and entirely accurate story, his story is told in Laura Hillenbrand’s biography of him called Unbroken: A WWII story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption. The movies are Unbroken and Unbroken: Path to Redemption. Both are great and I own both and I’m on the lookout to buy the book. 😉 Long story short, I love his story and he’s been such an inspiration to me. 🙂 (Sadly, he passed away in 2014, when the first movie was made, but he’s still making an impact on people and that’s exactly the plan God had for his life! <3)

(It seems we do! XD) I know!! *sighs* And YES!!! You will need those tissues!!!
I HAVE heard of him!! I’ve been wanting to watch those movies for a long time now, but we just haven’t had the chance! I’ll have to check out the book too! (Aww, yes! Absolutely!)

@gracie-j. Most definitely! I will absolutely cry watching I Still Believe. Trust me. XD
AWESOME! Yes, I love both movies so much and the book! His story is just so wonderful in every way. The things he went through…man, I wanna be as strong as Louie. 😉 And his story to finding healing for his PTSD is beautiful. 🙂 <3 But I don’t want to spoil too much for ya. 😉

@gracie-j. I’LL BE SURE TO TELL HIM, DON’T YOU WORRY!!!!!! 😉 Wyatt’s just so wonderful, lol. XD I love him way more than Dorothy, but she’s good too. I love her friend Johanna too! 😉 Bliss-Baldwin is annoying just like Eaton. XD XD XD
Oooh, and in another note, I just got a new NONFICTION book from Walmart! By Lyle W. Dorsett: Serving God and Country: United States Military Chaplains in World War II. I’m pretty excited! One of my MC’s, Phillip, is a WWII Paratrooper Chaplain. (;
