The Way: a must see!

The Way (Movie Review)

By Jason Fowler on 02/24/2012

TINY: A Story About Living Small (Film Trailer)

By Jason Fowler on 09/07/2011

Rich Mullins: A Ragamuffins Legacy (help support this feature length film)

Calling All Ragamuffins: Help Support the Rich Mullins Movie (Film Producer Interview)

By Rick Wise on 06/10/2011

I’m making this film because in my faith Rich Mullins, his life, and music have challenged and encouraged me more than any other…The message of the ragamuffin gospel…that “reckless raging fury”…I think Rich’s true life story will deeply convey the heartbeat of that same message of God’s love…
