Two MUST SEES on the Big Screen
Yesterday Joe and I had a mini-date and went to see Christmas with The Chosen, and oh… I cannot recommend it highly enough. If it’s in a theater near you (click the image to find out) and you have time to go, please do. Not only to support the series but because it is phenomenal! I loved every minute and am eager to see it again.

The movie is doing REALLY well in the theaters too, which is great to hear. It should be on The Chosen app soon, I think. Before Christmas, I’m betting (but don’t quote me).

I shed quite a few tears as the scenes unfolded (as did people around me, judging by the sniffling), and those scenes are still resonating inside me.

I’m so grateful for The Chosen and for how scores of people are coming to Christ because of its message, and are also gaining a deeper love for the Bible. Watching the series has certainly deepened my own love and appreciation for the living, breathing Word of God. If you haven’t seen the trailer yet, please enjoy…
As Joe and I were leaving the theater, I caught sight of another something special across the lobby!

Redeeming Love the movie—the novel based on Francine Rivers’ bestselling novel—opens in theaters on January 21, 2022, and I am so stinkin’ excited to see it! In fact, a dear friend and my two daughters and I already have tickets! Do you?
But the real question… How many times have you read Redeeming Love? I’ve read it at least 5 times over the past several years, and I know many of you have read it more than that!
Have you seen the trailer?
In celebration of the movie’s release, I’m giving away two copies each of three of Frani’s novels this month (one book each for six separate winners). Click the image below if you’re interested in entering to win.

Now back to writing. I’m on the homestretch with another novel—my first contemporary (out next year)—and I’m busy wrapping things up, soooo ready to reach The End. But even more, to share this story with you.
