AMERICAN FAMILY REVIVAL
(dir: Handel Humphrey /USA/53 min)
SCREENS: SATURDAY DEC 7, 2:00PM
In modern times, Americans have been losing touch with their heritage and culture, as the foundations of the family structure are being eroded out from under them. Rather than being the center of their lives, family concerns are giving way to the demands of the workplace, the classroom, and obligations of debt. Having many children, and teaching them at home, is considered too difficult or expensive to manage anymore.
The time has come to rebuild again- to return to the family as a center for life and meaning, as our ancestors did. Join us as we profile five families who are pursuing the bearing and raising of children as a purposeful Christian calling, to pass the faith to succeeding generations.
