MUST WATCH! The Forge Movie: Highlighting Faith, Redemption, and Discipleship with Believers

Many Christians across the country are raving about the film, “The Forge!” Directed by Alex Kendrick, the Christian film stars Aspen Kennedy, Priscilla Shirer, Cameron Arnett, and Karen Abercrombie and is a spinoff from the 2015 flick “War Room.”

Some weeks ago, I went to go see and review “The Forge,” which has resonated with audiences for its powerful narrative, deeply rooted in themes of faith, redemption, and the transformative power of God’s grace. It’s also a powerful message of the importance of discipleship in the lives of believers, especially new Christians who are figuring out their walks with God.

Must Watch: “Once I Was A Beehive,” A Story of Faith and Friendship

I was randomly on Peacock a while ago and started finding different faith-based movies. One that I watched, and really liked was the 2015 indie film, “Once I Was A Beehive” starring Paris Warner, Mila Smith, and Lisa Clark. Even as a grown woman, I will watch a teen show/movie in a second!

Here’s a short synopsis:

After losing her father to cancer, a teenage girl, Lane, reluctantly joins her new stepcousin, Phoebe, at a summer camp for Latter-day Saint (Mormon) girls. (To add on more, her mother remarried someone about a year later).

Though I am a Baptist Christian and don’t subscribe to all of the beliefs of the Mormon faith, I still think that this movie has a special message about faith, fun, and friendship. Plus, as you soon will tell, I’m a sucker for cheesy, campy movies!

Here are three great takeaways from “Once I Was a Beehive” (and the trailer!).

2023: A Year of Realignment

This post is really somewhat of a journal entry, but if it hit, let it stick. I’ll be honest with y’all, as I try my best to be. I lose myself from time to time. We all do. It happens because life happens. But between late 2020 and most of 2021….WHEW I was going through it. I was finally going through healing and self-accountability for my last romantic endeavor, and loneliness was taking its toll. So, when 2022 came around and I was in a better place, I just wanted to have fun. And boy, did I have a time last year!

When it came time to prepare a vision board for 2023, I THOUGHT my word for the new year would be “reinvention.” I was stuck on that for a while. I needed to look a certain way, act a certain way, make a certain amount of money, and make some serious life moves. I needed to “be different.” That was before praying and meditating on my 2023 ideas and goals.

God showed me that I didn’t need to “reinvent myself.” I needed to realign myself with my purpose for this site and the other plans He had for my life.

Brittany Shawnté’s Interview on Host Tammy Padilla’s “Let’s Talk About Him – The Lord!”

Y’all, with everything I have going on, I forgot to share a HUGE piece of news on the site! I recently did an interview with host Tammy Padilla of Blessed Touch LLC, who has her own online show, Let’s Talk About Him-The Lord! Now, Ms. Tammy, as I call her (I’ve known her since I was a kid in church), regularly interviews singers, pastors, entrepreneurs, and others to share encouraging words and more about their spiritual lives. I’m so glad that we were finally able to get something on the books!

On the broadcast, I spoke about how Imperfectly B got started, my Monday Motivation eBook, my truly imperfect spiritual journey, and more! The few times people have interviewed me, I’ve definitely been really nervous (especially because I’m used to doing the interviewing myself!). However, this conversation really flowed, and I was so honored to share my story.
