Faith Like Potatoes

Faith Like Potatoes is a heart-warming story of courage and faith in Christ based on the life of Angus Buchan, a contemporary farmer-turned-preacher in South African. Angus, a successful farmer, must leave his farm in one South African country because of political unrest and start from scratch in another country. Soon his problems with anger, prejudice, and financial struggles become debilitating obstacles to his own and his family's happiness. He is invited to a Christian church and decides to follow Jesus. The changes that happen as he puts his trust in Christ are truly inspiring. 

FLAG: Demonstrations of anger and a bloody scene where a child gets run over by a tractor could be quite difficult for young children. I suggest parental preview.

Night Crossing

Two families who live in East Germany want to leave, but how? Is making a hot air ballon possible? Could it carry two families safely over soldiers who want to kill them in their attempt?

Do you ever find yourself wanting to pray for people in a movie?! Silly, I know, but it's how I felt during this film when I saw it back in the 80's and when I saw it again with my children. Intense and amazing, since it was based on a true story.

NOTE: There are some swear words used in this story and frequent drinking.
