Fireproof the movie . . .

My daughter bought this movie three weeks ago. She and her boyfriend had kind of talked about it. I sat there and watched it with her - and I had some rather strong reactions to it - guess it was because hubby was sitting and watching it too. lol

First of all - do you remember Kurt Cameron? He was on Growing Pains - the sitcom. He always played the irresponsible one always getting into trouble. When he was 17 he went through what I guess I would call a Christian conversion. He refused to play the irresponsible lad any longer and some people felt that is what led to the demise of the show. He also met his future wife on the set - one of the girls that 'Mike Seiver' was dating. That was 23 years ago. And his Christianity it still going strong.



Love is not a fight . . . beautiful song. It was in the movie . . .





Kurt also is part of a daily Christian Radio station:

This show is apparently on every day Monday through Friday and Kurt seems to be in the middle of it! Daily Christian topics.

The following is an interview he did promoting the movie Fireproof. He talks about how he and his wife will not 'kiss' anyone else - even on camera. This movie called for it and he explains how they captured the scene without kissing anyone but his wife. They have two children and four adopted children I believe.

The movie had a half a million dollar budget. It was filmed here in GA. Kurt was the only one who was paid. One of the extra sections of the CD explained that the entire rest of the cast were church volunteers and they acted in the rest of the parts. Kurt gave his money to charity.


His charity - a camp for sick kids. Such an excellent show. I have watched it many many times and I would have loved it to have been out 30 years ago! lol

And this is a camp he runs for sick children:

And look what I got in the emails today - A God Wink:

“Neither a lofty degree of intelligence nor imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius. ”
