Thank you for your prayers over the last month.
Last week a very kind-hearted Pastor gave me generous time to share the first verbal presentation of VOLITION. Prior to our meeting, she read about 1/4 of the screenplay and I pray that she is moved to read to the very last scene. I learned a great deal about succinct pitching upon reflection after that meeting that I'll use in the future. Fortunately I didn't scare her away with my passionate babble-speak and she prayed an amazing Holy Spirit prayer at the end of the meeting and said she would continue prayer over the project.
In the next two weeks I hope to meet with a producer who has read the Synopsis of VOLITION and is willing to meet to offer advice on next steps. In the meantime, I sent VOLITION to a script analyst and will be getting the review back around June 22nd. Please pray for her ears and eyes to hear and see the messages beneath the surface and feel the heart of the story. I pray that she'll be able to help me to tighten up anything that needs it, so that VOLITION will be read and received by hearts that mirror the Heart that poured this story into mine. Ultimately I pray that these hearts will see the vision of the film and feel the call to fund and produce this film! My specific prayer is that Philip Anschutz and Norm Miller would read the Synopsis of VOLITION and be inspired by it.

Thank You for Praying for VOLITION
VOLITION is a life-changing film about choices
The story is universal in appeal because every life equals the sum of one’s decisions.
No one is exempt from this fact. I began writing VOLITION after hearing a song by Casting Crowns for the first time December 24, 2010. I was unable to erase the vivid dichotomy I saw when I heard the song, and 54 days later the screenplay was completed.
I am requesting your prayers for protection and wisdom as I seek funding and production partners. I appreciate your support and would be delighted to answer any questions you may have. I’d also be happy to share VOLITION further if requested. Just email me at volitionthefilm@gmail.com. The story is riveting, real and heart wrenching.
The lives changed by your prayers? Innumerable.
THANK YOU'S!

VOLITION
VOLITION - An act of making a choice or a decision.
The power of choosing or determining of your own free will.
Thank you for your support of the development of VOLITION The Film.
Life is all about choices and VOLITION is all about choices. While one choice is rooted in fear, another rises out of courage. Will Your Next Choice Mean Life...or Death?
I cannot describe how passionate I am about this project coming to fruition! God poured this story into my heart and all I did was show up each night into the wee hours of the morning for 54 days to type what I received. He protected this story from conception to completion, despite many challenges along the way. I'm grateful for your prayers that VOLITION will be read by production companies I've contacted so far, and that production and financial backing will flow like the composition did. Thanks again for your prayers. I'll keep you posted!
