The images seemed to the echo profound truths that our parents instilled in us while gently bringing us reassurance that things would be all right if you believed that good always trumped evil.

Kairos Winner
Set to be Released
Thru Pure Flix Entertainment

JOHN, THE REVELATOR, which won the Kairos Prize in its inaugural year, will soon be released through Pure Flix Entertainment.

To be released under the title JOHNNY, the script was written by David M. Anthony and tells the miraculous story of a family stricken with grief after the loss of their only son. Struggling to hold his family together, Dr. Drew Carter brings Johnny, a young terminally ill foster child into their home. Not knowing what he’s in for, Johnny is convinced that he has a special mission. While dealing with his own mortality and his new family’s pain, Johnny finds the courage to bring life and love back into a home that had little of both.

A captivating and faithfully redeeming story of the power of grace, JOHN, THE REVELATOR is the first Kairos script to be produced in its brief history.
