don\u2019t understand it.\u00a0 We\u2019ll have some non-Christians, who are operating equipment on our sets.\u00a0 They walk on our sets; and there is prayer going on, there\u2019s love, there\u2019s unity, there\u2019s Scripture.\u00a0 They say, \u201cThe vibe here is really, really good.\u201d\u00a0 It\u2019s just a new environment for them.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tIn the

\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t<strong>Alex:<\/strong>\u00a0 Well, he said, \u201cWho the *** are you?\u201d\u00a0 He said, \u201cI don\u2019t even know you guys exist.\u201d\u00a0 Then, he said, \u201cI study and analyze every movie that comes along.\u00a0 We kind of know what it\u2019s going to do, and we track them.\u201d\u00a0 He said, \u201cYou guys came so far under the radar.\u00a0 All of a sudden, I open up the paper, and this movie is number four in the nation\u2014that I\u2019ve never even heard of.\u201d\u00a0 He said, \u201cWho are you?\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tI said, \u201cWell, we\u2019re a church in south Georgia.\u201d\u00a0 He said, \u201cYou\u2019re a church!\u201d\u00a0 [Laughter]\u00a0 I said, \u201cYes.\u201d\u00a0 He said, \u201cWell, where\u2019d you get your actors?\u201d\u00a0 \u201cWell, they\u2019re church members.\u201d\u00a0 He said, \u201cThey\u2019re what?\u201d\u00a0 He recognized Kirk Cameron; but everybody else he was like, \u201cWhat?\u201d\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tHe said, \u201cMovies aren\u2019t supposed to do this well.\u201d\u00a0 He said, \u201cDo you know how many people, who went to film school, and are out here mentoring under Hollywood people\u2014they\u2019ve got millions of dollars, and they\u2019re making movies that can\u2019t get to the

about.\u00a0 You don\u2019t hear about the 540 that bombed because they hardly ever come up.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThey are fighting for screens.\u00a0 They are fighting for DVD, and pay-per-view, and they can\u2019t get in there.\u00a0 So, a <em>church<\/em> in south Georgia becomes number four in the nation with <em>Fireproof<\/em>\u2014and <em>Courageous<\/em>, for that

seeing more getting produced.\u00a0 We\u2019re seeing\u2014but again, you see more good ones being produced, and you see a lot of ones that don\u2019t need to be made being produced, too.\u00a0 So,

\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tThen, that album venture went bankrupt, or whatever, and he just got stuck.\u00a0 Now, what happened during that time, is the Lord killed his vision, and he began to grow in the Lord.\u00a0 Now, he loves Jesus with all of his heart.\u00a0 The Lord has placed him back, through this role\u2014now, he\u2019s beloved all over the world, in a sense, because of his role

think is funny.\u201d\u00a0 We started praying, and praying, and praying.\u00a0 Anything that\u2019s funny in the movie is because God blessed it because we don\u2019t know.\u00a0 \n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\tWe prayed for an idea that would be funny, and the Lord gave us the Snake King scene.\u00a0 It seemed like every time we told somebody, that they\u2019d start laughing about it.\u00a0 \u201cOkay, let\u2019s shoot this and see if it works.\u201d\u00a0 Because the good thing about editing is if something doesn\u2019t work, you can always just take it out of
