Sound of Freedom – the movie
I wanted to alert you to a new movie called the Sound of Freedom. It stars Jim Caviezel who you may remember played the role of Jesus Christ in Mel Gibson’s The Passion of Christ.
Alice my wife, and I saw it at Bridgeport Plaza on Thursday. It is based on a true story of a fellow named Tim Ballard who was an agent for Homeland Security at our southern border and became a strong advocate for the voiceless cry of human trafficking of children.
The movie was produced by Angel studios which is the company behind the Chosen series. It is reviewed as harrowing, dark and gripping and it certainly lived up to this review. It is one of those movies like the Passion of Christ that leaves you speechless.
But is really not about the movie itself; it is about the message. It is a message of children as young as 6 years old being snatched and forced into sexual slavery.
At the end of the movie Jim Caviezel has a message from his heart about this despicable act that has become an epidemic and a billion-dollar industry for those who are evil and promote evil in our world. He challenged the audience to spread the word to see this movie so that the message “God’s children are not for sale” can be heard throughout this land.
After the credits there were the names of people (thousands of them) like you and I who made this movie possible. It still took 5 years to actually pass all the roadblocks so this film could be released on the big screen.
It is a must see for adults and teenagers. I strongly recommend supporting this movie. However, it will only be playing in the Regal at Bridgeport Village until Tuesday and the AMC at Progress Ridge until next Thursday. (other theaters in the area may carry it longer given the $2.5 million fund now created to pay for a wider release and for free tickets for those who can't afford it- see link at the top of this post for a way to search for theaters in the area showing this- Ted)
I for one will also be writing to our representatives in Congress to somehow address this worldwide problem.

Shannon and I saw the movie last night, it was pretty good. I had been well aware of Tim Ballard's movement on this going back to the Obama Administration ( Operation Underground Railroad - click this link to give directly to his organization and find out more- they work with local law enforcement in many countries to ransom and free slaves) so I was hesitant about the "preaching to the choir" nature of my seeing this movie. In addition, the entire topic of children at the border has become extremely politicized in the last 8 years or so; often to the detriment of these children, who are brought across the border by people who aren't really related to them but pretend to be their family.
There were some aspects of the story line that were a bit "Hollywood science fiction", such as injectable GPS trackers and near-magic feats of detective work, but for the most part, they did not detract too much from the story line.
As of late, some very powerful people have acquired positions that allow them to protect and hide this $150 billion industry of slavery from the world. ONLY the outcry of "God's Children are Not For Sale", can begin to turn the tide against this pornocracy that invades every aspect of corporate, civil, and even religious governance in some of the most powerful institutions on this world.
