From the makers of Facing the Giants and Fireproof…COURAGEOUS: The movie
Honor begins at home! Four men, one calling: To serve and protect. As law enforcement officers, they face danger every day. Yet when tragedy strikes close to home, these fathers are left wrestling with their hopes, their fears, and their faith. With action, drama, and humor, the fourth film from Sherwood Pictures embraces God’s promise to "turn the hearts of fathers to their children, and the hearts of children to their fathers." Souls will be stirred, and hearts will be challenged to be ... courageous!

MADD or Mothers Against Drunk Drivers, held a banquet for local law enforcement Sunday to thank them for their work in the community.

It's typically when we have the most fatalities and injuries as it relates to DWI." www.madd.org/NC
