Tobias Elvhage - Gender Transformation: The Untold Realities

Rising Star Filmmaker Tobias Elvhage of Fenix FilmCEO of Fenix Film, Tobias Elvhage is an award-winning producer and director with a passion for engaging and touching stories. He has studied at Berghs School of Communication and Stockholm Media School. His most recent productions range from the “haute cuisine” docuseries Taste of France, to historical and contemporary documentaries, to docuseries with re-enactments. His film Pure Life was voted Best Short Film at the LA Documentary Film Festival and was named winner at the European Cinematography Awards. The short is an official selection of the upcoming Toronto Beaches Film Festival. His latest film is the docudrama Gender Transformation: The Untold Realities that debuted on EpochTV on Jun 29,2023.Tobias saw an investigative reportage by the Swedish Television about the severe side effects of puberty blockers and cross sex hormones — these are given to young people of today in order for them to start changing to the opposite sex. After watching, he felt that it’s a very important matter that is in need of exploration — how can children be influenced to destroy their bodies and become sterile?Initially, I thought it would be quite an ordinary documentary but when I started to interview people in the United States, I came across a woman named Abigail Martinez, who had lost custody of one of her daughters because she didn’t agree on her changing her gender at a very early age. The whole team felt it was such a heart-gripping story and we decided to make it into a docudrama, following Abigail and her daughter, and at the same time, we had experts and people who’ve regretted their sex change to speak out to give a picture of how and why this is happening, and also who is profiting from this.Be sure to follow, like and subscribe to Ann Beal's social media pages.https://www.facebook.com/annbealgettingbetter/https://www.facebook.com/livingwellwithannbeal/https://twitter.com/ablivingwellhttps://www.instagram.com/annbeal/https://www.youtube.com/annbealVisit Ann Beal's websites at:https://www.gettingbettershow.com/https://www.lifesolutionscoachingandcounseling.com/

Transparent: How to See Through the Powerful Assumptions That Control You

Have you ever try to change someone's mind and no matter what evidence you show them, they don't budge? We all have. David Richardson studied this topic at Oxford and explains why this happens and how to change that person by first understanding their underlying assumptions.David Richardson, Author, Oxford ScholarTransparent: How to See Through the Powerful Assumptions That Control YouAssumptions are the most potent of ideas, but also the least understood. Transparent reveals what assumptions we make, how they control us, and how they are all inherently religious. Even atheists are religious at the level of their assumptions. Some assumptions are true and most are not. How can you tell without being an intellectual? Transparent introduces the Transparent App, an innovative and creative tool that helps people quickly see through the messages they encounter daily in the things they read, watch, and hear using the power of assumptions. The Transparent App is simple enough for a student to use, but powerful enough for adults to find God and engage with Him in their areas of interest, expertise, and leadership. How can someone bring God with them to work or school? How does God give us knowledge and guidance in the things that matter in real life? At the level of assumptions God is everywhere. Transparent is not just a theoretical theological exercise for intellectuals. It “translates” the complex ideologies of the intellectuals into everyday language for everyday people. Written more like an adventure than a textbook, Transparent is a refreshing departure from the usual books about apologetics, theology, and culture. Students, parents, pastors, and professionals will all love Transparent.Dave Richardson is also the President of the Assumptions Institute, an educational organization that helps individuals and groups find God and engage with Him in their areas of interest, expertise, and leadership. We do that with resources and strategies that use the power of assumptions to discover what is true and align our public lives with that truth.Contact Dave on his website www.daverichardson.orgBe sure to follow, like and subscribe to Ann Beal's social media pages.https://www.facebook.com/annbealgettingbetter/https://www.facebook.com/livingwellwithannbeal/https://twitter.com/ablivingwellhttps://www.instagram.com/annbeal/https://www.youtube.com/annbealVisit Ann Beal's websites at:https://www.gettingbettershow.com/https://www.lifesolutionscoachingandcounseling.com/

“If God can use a woman with a political resume for His glory - He can use anyone.”Bunni Pounds: President & Founder of Christians EngagedBunni Pounds is a woman with a passion. She is the President of Christians Engaged. This national non-partisan ministry awakens, motivates, educates, and empowers believers in Jesus Christ: to pray for their nation and elected officials regularly, to vote in every election to impact their culture, and to engage their hearts in some form of civic education or engagement for the wellbeing of America.In just three years – the Christians Engaged team served over 125 churches, built the only 501(c)3 get out the vote system for the Body of Christ in all 50 states and produced four major curriculum projects to activate the Church– On-Ramp to Civic Engagement, Salt & Light: How to Impact our Local Communities, Austin 101 (for the state of Texas), and Nehemiah: How to Rebuild the Walls of a Nation. They have also produced tons of free content in the form of articles,prayer calls, and a weekly show to educate the Body of Christ on the importance of their biblical call to America. Their goal is to reach 1 million Christians by the 2024 general election.On May 18, 2021, after 18 months of operation – Christians Engaged was denied by the IRS their 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status because the IRS noted in writing – “biblical teachings” are “typically affiliated with the Republican Party.” Bunni appealed this decision for not only Christians Engaged but all Christian organizations that this would affect in the nation. With the help of First Liberty Institute, they won a reversal in 21 days after 3 Fox News appearances, a letter from Members of Congress, and huge national attention on the case.As a political consultant by profession – Bunni spent over sixteen years running the campaigns of Members of Congress around Texas.

In the end – she made it through a field of eight primary candidates into the Republican Primary runoff but came up slightly short.During the 2018 primary season, she raised more money than any GOP open seat candidate inthe State of Texas, became the only person in the entire United States who gained the endorsement of Vice President Mike Pence, and out of 46 candidates became the only Texas Republican woman to make the runoff election.Bunni’s experience doesn’t just stop at politics. She has been bi-vocational and active in Christian ministry since shewas 16.

Buck Storm: The Light Part 2

Part 2 of the interview with Buck StormBiblical Fiction Author Q&A: Buck Storm (The Light)Buck Storm Buck Storm is a recording artist and touring musician, as well as the critically-acclaimed, award-winning Christian fiction author of eight novels, including The List, Truck Stop Jesus, The Beautiful Ashes of Gomez Gomez, Miracle Man, and Venus Sings the Blues, among others. His books and songs have made friends around the world. A native of Yuma, AZ, he now makes his home in Coeur D’Alene, Idaho. In this interview, Buck talks about the new expanded edition of his Biblical fiction book, The Light, which is part of his First Century Series.The Light is certainly outside the Literary Americana genre my readers have come to expect from my books. But when I was approached a few years ago about writing a story that was biblically, culturally, and historically accurate following the spiritual awakening of Nicodemus (a Pharisee) and Joseph of Arimathea (a Sadducee) to the truth of the Messiah I was intrigued. Here were two men as different politically—and even religiously—as night and day. Yet they came together to remove Jesus’s body from the cross and bury it. Their differences crumbled in the bright light of Something Higher. What was their journey? I knew it had to be fascinating. I started with a book called The List, the Christ story from the perspective of two men pulled—kicking and screaming at times—to the truth of prophetic scripture. It’s a tale not only of friendship, but salvation. But for me the story wasn’t over. While The List followed an intellectual pathway to Jesus, this isn’t everybody’s experience. Sometimes we’re just too broken to think. I know this has been the case in my own life. My road has not been smooth and tidy. So, I wrote The List both as a continuation, but also a novel that definitely stands on its own. While The Light still addresses the intellectual case for Jesus, it also meets readers in a deeply personal way. It is an insistent pressing in of love. A rescue mission. A great read for believers and doubters alike.Be sure to follow, like and subscribe to Ann Beal's social media pages.https://www.facebook.com/annbealgettingbetter/https://www.facebook.com/livingwellwithannbeal/https://twitter.com/ablivingwellhttps://www.instagram.com/annbeal/https://www.youtube.com/annbealVisit Ann Beal's websites at:https://www.lifesolutionscoachingandcounseling.com/https://www.gettingbettershow.com/
