Today, as the calendar turns to September rolling into fall, many people’s favorite season is coming into full swing. High school football teams are hitting the gridiron field with high hopes and great anticipation of a winning season. Football and fall go hand in hand in some parts of the country. And football at Evangel Christian Academy in Shreveport, LA, is no exception.
Bubblingwitheleganceandgrace.com had the opportunity to preview the new Amazon Feevee docuseries, God.Family.Football., which follows Evangel Eagles as they prepare for and play the 2022 season.
Evangel Christian Academy is known as a football powerhouse, winning fourteen state championships in twenty years, including one national championship in 1999. After a disappointing 2020 season that saw the team finish without a win, the school called on their former coach to bring the team back to its winning ways. Coach Denny Duron comes out of a 30-year retirement to lead the team back to its winning ways. The players are dedicated to Duron but under extreme pressure because there is so much riding on the team doing their best. Getting into the right college, parents wanting them to play better, keeping up with their grades, and knowing the school’s winning legacy are always on their minds. Coach Duron stands on faith in God, focusing on the players by ensuring they put God first. I don’t want to give everything away, but I will say it can be funny, profound, moving, and inspiring simultaneously.
God.Family.Football. is available to watch for free on Amazon Freevee beginning today (September 1st). Stream free on Fire TV, Roku, Amazon Prime Video, or the Amazon Freevee app. NFL quarterback Russell Wilson is the show’s executive producer!

Child sex trafficking is an evil stain on our society, and we need to help end it. The new movie SOUND OF FREEDOM opens our eyes to these heinous acts and shows how real and prevalent it is in our world today. Conservative statistics say that two million children are kidnapped or sold into this modern-day slavery yearly.
But how can we put an end to it?
The first thing is to see this film to understand this problem’s size. We also need to encourage others to see the film. As more people see the film and speak out about it, it will force this topic to be discussed publicly and not keep it a taboo issue. Another thing is to purchase a GOD’S CHILDREN ARE NOT FOR SALE T-shirt. When someone sees your T-shirt and asks about it, you can tell them that this problem must be addressed. As more people know about these crimes and are willing to speak out about them, it will force government agencies to take action to tighten and enforce laws for the people who commit them.
SOUND OF FREEDOM debuted in theaters on July 4th, a fitting date for children who need our help to regain their independence. On its first day in theaters, the film grossed $14.2 million, beating out the newest Indiana Jones movie. The film grossed over $45 million in the first week of release. People are saying YES to the film’s message. I am seeing countless interviews with Tim Ballard (the Homeland Security agent who worked to save the children), Angel Studios (the film’s distribution company), Jim Caviezel (who stars as Ballard), and Alejandro Monteverde (the film’s director). The momentum is building. Let’s keep it going!

We are extending the giveaway so we can make sure that as many people as possible can see this film that chronicles the life of Tim Ballard.

Thank you for helping to stop child sex trafficking and entering our giveaway. And always remember that God’s children are not for sale.
I am shouting from the rooftops with a clarion call for everyone to see the Sound of Freedom movie produced by Angel Studios (The Chosen, His Only Son). This captivating movie chronicles the incredible true story of Tim Ballard, a special agent for the Department of Homeland Security in the Internet Crime Against Children Taskforce, working to track down pedophiles. Until the one day when Ballard realizes children are being kidnapped and sold as sex slaves for these pedophilic acts. The film emotionally hit me hard, and it was profoundly moving that we need to find a way to help stop sex trafficking. Parents, aunts, uncles, and godparents, you have to bring your older children, friends, small groups, churches, and more to see this movie which premieres in theaters on July 4th. Whether you have children or not, everyone must see this movie. Due to the nature of this film’s content, it contains some adult language and themes and is rated PG-13.
Together, we can propel a movement to save millions of children worldwide. Child sex trafficking needs to be stopped.
You can find showtimes HERE. Angel Studios reports that many theaters and showtimes are selling out quickly, so new theaters are being added daily to accommodate the demand.
Angel Studios’ goal is to have at least two million moviegoers during the July 4th week, symbolic of the two million children trafficked yearly. Please know that if the ticket’s price keeps you from going to the theater, Angel Studios has set up an opportunity where you can claim a free ticket. If you would like to Pay It Forward, you can also purchase tickets for someone else. Click HERE to claim your free ticket or to purchase a ticket for someone else. Help spread the word about the phenomenal campaign with the hashtag #2MillionFor2Million
Angel Studios CEO Neal Harmon and Jim Caviezel, who portrays Ballard in the movie, recently hosted a Q&A session at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C. You can watch the replay of that live stream below.
Giveaway Details One Elegant winner will receive two (2) tickets to see the movie.
To enter the giveaway, please share how you will pay it forward to help save the children in the comment section.
Please add a second comment if you Pay It Forward and pay for someone else to receive no-cost tickets. You will get a second entry into the giveaway.
The giveaway runs until July 4th at 11:59 pm. The winner will be announced on July 5th.

We pray that you had a blessed holiday. Easter is the pinnacle of our Christian faith. To fully understand the events that led up to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, my hubby and I also study the Jewish customs of the Sedar and Passover.
During Holy Week, we reflect on what the resurrection means and how essential it is to our faith. Without it, there would be no faith, and our beliefs would be in vain. Our retrospect is a similar experience as musical legend Andrea Bocelli. Bocelli and his wife journeyed through the Italian countryside while on horseback, talking with other musical superstars about their faith and how that has carried them through the trials of their lives. This moving story was captured in the recent film THE JOURNEY. You can watch the trailer here:
With a limited time in theaters, THE JOURNEY was only shown during Holy Week. Be on the look for it coming to streaming platforms soon.
Giveaway Winner Announcement In conjunction with the theatrical release of THE JOURNEY, we hosted a giveaway for our followers. Congratulations to
~~ KARA M. ~~
Yeah, Kara! You will receive a $10 Amazon Gift Card. We will be in contact with you about your prize.
