'God's Not Dead' Movie Creators Hope for Double Blessing With "Do You Believe?"
'God's Not Dead' Creators Hope for Double Blessing
Friday, March 20, 2015
LOS ANGELES -- "God's Not Dead" broke box office records and became the highest grossing independent film of 2014. Now the film's creators are releasing their follow-up to the hit faith film. It is called "Do You Believe?"
Critics call "Do You Believe" a faith version of the Academy Award-winning film "Crash."
The movie follows a dozen characters, moving in different directions. All of them are longing for something more as their lives unexpectedly intersect. The all-star cast includes Mira Sorvino, Lee Majors, Ted McGinley, and Cybill Shepherd.
Shepherd and McGinley spoke with CBN News about their roles in the project.
'What Attracted Me to the Role?'
Shepherd plays Teri, a grief-stricken mother who lost her daughter.
When describing that role, Shepherd told CBN News Teri is "frozen because she is not really letting herself feel her grief. It is too deep. And that is what made me want to play this role, the idea of going through that transition, where my character faces her grief about losing that child."
Ted McGinley plays Matthew, a pastor.

"It starts off with me putting what looks like blood on the cross and turning around to the audience, really, with just a very straight face and sort of confronting all of them," McGinley said of his role.
"So it is a little bit uncomfortable at first," McGinley continued. "But you see he begins to come around. But he is a guy who is going to tell you the truth because that's what he just encountered."
Surprising Success
"Do You Believe" is the latest project from Hollywood actor and producer David A.R. White. His Pureflix production company has produced nearly 90 faith films in the nine years since it started. That hefty roster includes "God's Not Dead."
What does "Do You Believe" bring to the table for family friendliness that other films lack? Bob Waliszewski, Plugged In Online's director, answered this question and more. Click play to watch.
"I think it surprised everybody," White said, reflecting on the success of that movie.
"When we released the trailer in October, like six months before it came out, the trailer was shared between five and 10 million times. It was the number one shared page for that week on Facebook, so we had an idea that we had something special," he continued.
"And then the movement leading up to the release was really incredible. But never in a million years did we ever expect that it would do as well as it did and that people all over the world would support," he added. "And you would see these London, double decker buses with 'God's Not Dead' on it."
"It was truly a dream and also truly a dream to see how God used that movie in so many different people's lives," he said.
Praying for Double Blessing
White prays his new film will have a similar impact.
Pureflix films have also managed to cast some Hollywood heavy hitters. White credits compelling storylines.
"I think it is the script first and foremost. It moves them when they read it. I got a call from Delroy Lindo right after he read it. And his agent was like, he was acting the role out on the phone to his agent saying, 'I want to do this,'" he explained.
"And so, I think that is how that type of talent comes into it because it is not like the money we pay is extraordinary. Obviously there are so many other places that pay a lot more money, but people are really moved by the story," he said.
From a Place of Faith
"Do You Believe" delivers a story of both intensity and inspiration. And even many of the actors performed from a place of faith.
"I just know that God is there. I have no doubt. So, in my darkest deepest hours of pain and questioning, whatever comes along in your life, that at some point, you are not alone. And that is really comforting," McGinley told CBN News.
Shepherd noted, "I was raised in the Episcopal Church and then I chose to be confirmed. I sang in the choir and my faith was always there. I think being confirmed because you don't have to get confirmed and I still have that prayer book by my bed."
The film comes out on Friday, March 20.
Nellie Elaine & Elaine Tavolacci: A Turnaround Year and Wells Overflowing
"It's Your Coming Out Season and Your Turnaround Year"
Nellie Elaine, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Just recently I have been hearing the word "Turnaround." I looked up the definition and it says:an abrupt or unexpected change, especially one that results in a more favorable situation: "it was a remarkable turnaround in his fortunes."
Then I saw a huge wave. In this wave many things were being taken from God's people, and many of God's people were actually in this wave being drawn away from the shore into the deep, deep waters. They did not understand what was happening to them. Situations and circumstances were bringing them further and further into deep waters. It was in these deep waters that God was hiding these people and taking those things from them "to shape and position them" – ONLY TO bring them back to shore to display them.
It has been a time of an intense wilderness experience. Not everyone has been in this wave. Many have already experienced this in times past, and those have been the ones to forerun and carry the glory and deliver the Word.
But there is a new wave of people who are being delivered via this wave coming out of the deep places and out of the wilderness leaning on their beloved. For these people there is a turnaround. (Photo via pixabay)
On Display... A Coming Out...
You actually know who you are and where you have been, and have been wondering, "How did I ever get here?" You know in your heart that the steps of a righteous man are ordered by the Lord. The door is opening for you, the deep waters are changing currents below, and there is a shifting.
I see a "coming out" and not just an ordinary coming out. It is a celebration of "Coming Out." There is a global coming out for those of you who were hidden in this last season. Age has no bearing on this coming out because you have been groomed to begin to work the supernatural workings of God.
"You have thought that in that place you would have died, however, I say to you," says the Lord, "that from this place, your life has been expanded and your years increased to be the exact number of years I have determined for you and not earlier as would have been the case."
Your garments have changed to those of deep revelation and you are clothed with Wisdom and Knowledge. You have learned that in that place of preparation of new realms and new levels and promotions that it had to be just you and God. That it was imperative that you KNOW your God, and I mean really KNOW your God.
The Word tells us in Daniel 11:32, "THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW THEIR GOD SHALL BE STRONG, AND CARRY OUT GREAT EXPLOITS." (Photo via flickr)
There was a forging in the deep waters, a trust being developed in the corridor of that journey, where a boy becomes a man and girl becomes a woman; where there is a rite of passage that tests and develops fruit and perseverance and fortitude! There is a knowing that your God is with you no matter what you see, feel or hear.
This is your season. Get ready, for you are about to be displayed! It is your turnaround! Expect the unexpected that results in a more favorable situation because your eyes are about to see that which was prophesied over you, and your ears are about to hear the sound of an abundance of God's grace.
It's time. It's time to smile, it's time to dance, it's time to rise up with wings as eagles, as you are about to take the flight of your life!

"Your Wells Will Be Overflowing"
Elaine Tavolacci, Staten Island, NY
The Holy Spirit is showing me that many of you have been digging wells for so long, but you have become discouraged because you have not experienced a breakthrough.
The Lord says,"Don't give up. I have ancient wells to be opened to you. I have an abundance of fresh water to be released to you. Don't drink the stagnant water from the past, but come and receive fresh and living water."
Then He took me to the book of Genesis chapter 26:18 where Isaac reopened the wells that had been dug in the time of his father Abraham, which the Philistines had stopped up after Abraham died. I see this as an analogy of Isaac wanting to drink from the wells that his father had drank from. He wanted to rediscover the secrets to his father's spiritual strength and his personal relationship with God.
Although Isaac's servants discovered fresh water when they dug the wells, they came upon opposition as the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with Isaac's herdsmen, saying, "The water is ours" (see Genesis 26:19-20). The first two wells which they dug were called Esek and Sitnah, which means contention and enmity.
Some of you have come against people who are trying to stop up your wells with contention and enmity. They want what is rightfully yours but they will not succeed.
Then he moved from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it. So he called its name Rehoboth, because he said, "For now the Lord has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land" (see verse 22). As they went on, the Lord appeared to him and said, "Do not fear. I am with you. I will bless you and multiply your descendants for My servant Abraham's sake" (see verse 24).
Many of you are crying out to the Lord because you are in such a dry spell. You need that anointing that you've once had, and long for His presence. The Lord says to those of you who are barren and dry, "The ancient wells are being dug once again and you will be replenished. You will receive such an abundance that you will never be spiritually famished again.
I desire to pour into your life more than you can ever imagine. Your wells will be overflowing.
"This water that I am releasing is not ordinary water, but it is living water that will bring breakthrough to areas of your lives that you have not been able to be set free from. It will be a cleansing stream of purified water that will not only bring refreshing and renewing to you, but you will also refresh and restore others. Don't settle for less, for I have an abundance to release to whosoever will receive," says the Lord.
Genesis 26:19-25 Also Isaac's servants dug in the valley, and found a well of running water there. But the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with Isaac's herdsmen, saying, "The water is ours." So he called the name of the well Esek, because they quarreled with him. Then they dug another well, and they quarreled over that one also. So he called its name Sitnah. And he moved from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it. So he called its name Rehoboth because he said, "For now the Lord has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land."
Then he went up from there to Beersheba. And the Lord appeared to him the same night and said, "I am the God of your father Abraham; do not fear, for I am with you. I will bless you and multiply your descendants for My servant Abraham's sake." So he built an altar there and called on the name of the Lord, and he pitched his tent there; and there Isaac's servants dug a well.
John 4:10 Jesus answered and said to her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, 'Give Me a drink,' you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water."

Information Versus Revelation by Dennis Reanier - Identity Network
Information Versus Revelation
by Dennis Reanier
Identity Network
I was once on a ministry trip in San Diego, California having dinner with a couple who were expecting to be grandparents in the next couple of weeks. While we were eating the woman received a phone call from their daughter who had just returned from an OBGYN appointment, where the doctor had been unable to find the baby's heart beat.
The woman got off of the phone traumatized as she shared the bad news about her daughter and granddaughter. When I felt quickened by the Spirit to ask them if we could pray. In agreement, we decided to pray as we were leaving the restaurant. Where we stopped and held hands in the parking lot and prayed in agreement for peace for the mother and for the baby to come back to life.
The next day I received a phone call from the grandfather saying that his daughter had just returned from the OBGYN. He proceeded to tell me that she had returned for an appointment where doctors were to make plans to remove the dead baby from her womb. But while she was there she asked the doctor to take the heartbeat one last time. The doctor complied with her request surprised to find the baby's heart beating normally. The baby had been raised from the dead in her mother's womb!
Can Jesus Really Raise the Dead?
I love that God likes to show up where we expect death, and give life. Can Jesus really raise the dead? How can it be possible for Him to use you to raise the dead? God doesn't just raise the dead - He is the Resurrection! Now the same Spirit that resurrected Jesus from the dead is the exact same Spirit that has become your new identity.
Jesus said that, "I am the way, the truth and the light." The word truth is actually best translated as the word reality. In other words, the word truth here is not about right and wrong. It's about a whole other reality. Jesus came to bring the reality of His Kingdom into the reality of our world.
In the above testimony the dead baby was a reality based on all of the information that we had from this world. But the supernatural reality of God's Kingdom revealed was different than the natural reality of this mother and her baby. Knowing that like Bill Johnson teaches the inferior reality of this world must submit to the superior reality of His Kingdom.
It's not about pretending that your circumstances and situations are not reality. It is about knowing that there is a different reality than the one you might currently be experiencing. Then believing God's reality over your reality. Helping us to understand that there is a biblical distinction to make between information and revelation. We receive information through the natural senses of our flesh and in the same way, we receive revelation in the spirit through our spiritual senses.
Our Union with the Holy Spirit
The abundant life is the manifestation of revelation received through our union with Holy Spirit, so we can activate the faith diffused throughout our soul to experience the things that we believe. This is not faith based on our natural ability to hope for positive things. This is faith based on His supernatural reality!
Many Christians misunderstand the term faith. They apply it to positive confession based on hope from information received by our body's natural senses. They say things like, "I'm trusting in faith that God is going to give me this new job I applied for yesterday." If God did not say He was giving them a new job, then it is not based in revelation; it is not biblical faith! It is hope!
There is nothing wrong with hope. The Bible lists it as one of three things that will remain for all eternity. But hope can only take us so far before we need faith to take over. The problem occurs when hope is disguised as faith. If the above person doesn't get the job described, they can become disillusioned about their faith in God. As they believe they have been deceived and that He has let them down once again, when all along it wasn't Him speaking.
Even the Bible can be reduced to information without a relationship with Holy Spirit resulting in revelation, where we can begin to worship the Bible, rather than the God of the Bible. Finding out later that it doesn't work to just quote information from chapter and verse of the Bible without revelation. It is not enough to know about the things of God. You must personally have revelation from God Himself in order to have authority to experience the manifestation of those promises.
Living in Purpose and Victory
The Holy Spirit gives us revelation so we can live in the purpose and victory of that revelation. When we do not live in the activation of that revelation, we set ourselves up for defeat. The abundant life is about getting a revelation and then living according to that blueprint in our thoughts and actions. The enemy cannot prevail against you when you are resting in Holy Spirit's revelation, but the enemy can prevail against you as you rely on information through your own strength and abilities.
Often as believers we can get a little information coupled with hope, go in our own strength and ability, and be deceived as we try to make something happen for ourselves. Then we call it faith, although we are doing our own thing; we expect God to show up and make us look good. Instead of waiting to hear from Holy Spirit before launching out to do anything in the first place!
Like my friend Kris Vallaton would say, "The problem with being deceived, is that you don't know that you're deceived." As a result, God will say, "Let Me get out of your way so you can try it on your own!" As we are reminded that we are not acting like ourselves, and the words of Jesus echo in our thoughts, "Apart from me you can do nothing." God does not bless all things! He only blesses those things of which He is a part!
