Faith, Family, and Film 0:02 We wanna honor God because He sees everything.0:10 You were born with a plan and a purpose. He's the God of all things possible. He's the God of all0:22 miracles.0:52 Welcome to Grace Grace with Naina Michelle. I'm Michelle Humphreys.0:56 And I am Naina Keegan. Today we have a very special guest. We've had him on the show before. You guys are gonna wanna stick around. You're gonna wanna hear from him. Michelle, you wanna do the the intro? We are1:06 introducing Hercules.1:09 The Hercules, number 1 actor in the world really, when he was doing Hercules. It was the most watched. He also he's a producer. He1:20 is known for his Christian movies, God is Not Dead, Let There Be Light. He has a ton of Christian movies, and most recently wrote a book called Bare1:32 Essentials of Fatherhood, and he has 2 new movies. Welcome Kevin Sorbo.1:40 Good to be here. Good to be here. Still living the life. I just got done with my workouts. It's been a busy day today. I have an hour and a half window between other interviews and stuff and then yours. So I I I still1:51 work out. I'm an old dude now, but I'm still working out. So people, no excuse. You can find an hour every day.1:55 Amen. That'll preach. So we're so grateful. Thanks for coming back on the show. You know, we know you and Sam are your wife, are movers and shakers. You know, not only in the Christian2:07 world, you're just doing things as patriots for the kingdom. You know, you have you're homeschooling your kids. I know your last 1 just recently graduated. You guys, you cannot fake good kids. They have great kids.2:19 You know, they're they're living proof of doing these great things for the Lord. When Hollywood was done with you, you didn't sit there and take it. You are they don't want Christians in Christian movies. So2:31 you guys have just stood up, and you are all over the map. Tell us everything that's going on. What are you doing?2:36 Well, you know, I mean, the the I'm I'm the new in in the closet in Hollywood. In the Hollywood. We used to be the gays were in the closet afraid to come out. Now Christians and conservatives are afraid to come out. And2:45 I happen to be both, but I'm not afraid to come out. And they also have to piss them off, and they booted me out, which is hilarious to me. And, so my wife and I formed Sorbo Studios, and we're doing our own thing. I I2:56 do I've been directing a lot, producing a lot, acting a lot. A lot of other independent producers come to me with their with their movies as well. So, you know, yeah, I'm not doing these big, you know, big TV shows or3:07 getting a chance to be in big movies anymore, but, you know, we're doing movies that make a difference in people's lives, and I get stopped all the time. And people say, keep doing what you're doing. We know that3:16 Hollywood is after you. It's weird, though. You know? It's weird this anger and hatred that's out there, this divisiveness, because I don't harbor that towards people at different point of view. I really don't. I don't3:26 get I mean, these people just get crazy mad at you and just attack you, and they want you dead because you don't agree with their point of view, which way I'll know is bent and twisted and untrue anyway.3:38 But, I'm I'm here to fight back and do movies that Hollywood used to do, movies that have hope.3:42 Love it. Proud of you, Kevin. You're you're doing such a great job. And, you know, sometimes the people that hate you, you're known by the people who hate you, and you wanna be hated by that3:54 crowd because it's it's everything that you're not. And and we are just so amazed at at what you guys are doing. So tell us about your your new movies.4:06 I got 2 coming on August. August second is the first 1 coming out. We got 2000 screens on that 1. It's called the Firing Squad. So go to firing squad film dot com for all the information. See the trailer. It's a true4:18 story set in a Indonesian prison. I play a guy. You hear his backstory. We we we we didn't go back and hire an actor to make me look like I was 26 or something again, but he was in his twenties there. He was4:30 surfing off the shores of Indonesia, and he saw some guy flirting with his, girlfriend. And he got on shore. He went and picked a fight with a guy, and he killed him. True story. He killed the guy. He got life4:42 in prison. He got the death penalty in the Indonesian prison. Not a Christian, not a you know, just just an angry guy that's still trying to find his way in the world. Kinda like Antifa members. Right?4:53 So,4:54 he, he4:55 found God while he's in prison, and he became a pastor. And he was preaching, and he saved a lot of inmates' souls. He saved a lot of guard souls. He was finally executed 30 years5:07 later, in, 20 15. He was executed in his recent time, and it's a true story. Cooper Green Junior is in it as well. He was great in it. And then,5:19 the other movie is the is the Reagan movie I did with Dennis Quaid. Dennis Quaid plays the president, and I play his pastor in the movie. That comes out August thirtieth. So, staying busy. Just doing a lot of stuff. I5:30 got 3 other movies in postproduction. I got 3 movies booked. I started filming 1 in July, 1 in August, and a Christmas movie will start in November. So, and 3 documentaries coming out, 2 this year,5:41 1 next next Easter.5:43 Kevin, do you have a large staff?5:47 I have me, my wife, and 1 assistant.5:49 Oh my goodness.5:49 Praise God. You know what? But here's the here's the thing. Think what the enemy has meant for harm, God is using for abundant good. The the the people are desiring this Christian content. People are boycotting movies,6:02 boycotting the Oscars, boycotting all of these things, and and craving Christian content. And, you know, so think about got you got out. You got out of Hollywood. I know you live in Florida now. You know, you know, I6:13 have this quote from you that, you you said you were on a talk show 1 time or someone said to you, you've got a lot of influence. You better be careful what you do in your life because 1 screw6:25 up and you're not gonna be forgiven. And that's just outrageous to me because if you look, you know, the Christians, the conservatives, were not forgiven of these things. And, you know, so people are saying that to us,6:36 but they have this multitude of overlooking all of the evil, the mainstream media, etcetera. But I love what your answer was to that. Do you remember? Well, I6:48 I I basically said I find it amazing to me that in a world of Christians that, I I have atheist friends, agnostic friends, and they've said this to me before. He says, yeah. You Christians are so unforgiving. I said, you6:58 know, there's a percentage that is that way. I think most of them are forgiving, but you're right. There are Christians out there that are so holier than thou, and they think that their way of life is also better than7:08 the evil out there right now. We're supposed to be the most forgiving. Amen. We're supposed to be there to set an example of of the light of God, you know, and and not the anger and hate that that that that the left is7:20 doing through Antifa and through BLM and all this kind of stuff. I I I just I I just laughed at when this guy when he said it to me. It was actually in the green room at the crystal, Christian the,7:32 Crystal Cathedral in Orange County.7:34 Wow.7:35 And I just thought, really? I said, I'm not perfect. Are you a perfect person? None of us are perfect.7:42 What did he say?7:43 You know? He just kinda stared at me, and I I7:46 just I7:47 I just you know? What what is what's the need to come back with me at? I just I just told I said what he said was absolutely ridiculous and ludicrous. But, unfortunately, what he did say, there is a percentage of people7:59 out there of faith that are that way, that I'm I'm better than you mentality, and we're not better than anybody. We just have we just have, the the guiding light of God and Jesus to to to forgive our sins because we sin8:11 every single day. Doesn't matter how big or small a sin is, a sin is a sin. Amen. And I think there are miracles every day out there where people just don't pay attention because they think a miracle means they're8:19 supposed to walk on water. But there's, you know, there's a lot of I hear so many stories about people in hospitals where doctors say, yeah. There's, you know, they're gonna die in 3 months, and they live another 208:28 years. I know. I don't know how this happened. Well, you know, prayer is a powerful thing. And, you you you you pray in groups. A lot of wonderful things can happen. You're not always gonna get a yes. God never promised8:37 any of us an easy life. There's always gonna be roadblocks in life, but most people wanna have that 1 roadblock or 1 failure. They just give up on life. And these are the ones that become Antifa members. These are the8:47 ones that ride in streets. These are the ones you're supposed to love your neighbor as yourself, but they don't love themselves. They don't even like themselves. They look in the mirror, hate what they see, and they8:54 wanna drag you and me into that dark black hole that they live in. Their hate towards me does nothing to me. That's right.9:00 And and you have stood up and so strong.9:03 Amazing people on Twitter. My my son tells me some of the stuff people say. And I go, these people just wait for me to post. If I don't like somebody, I don't follow them. I don't have time to these people must9:15 be so bored in their lives and that that to wait for me to post something to say negative something about me. I'm going, wow. Well, if my if I'm such a has been such a such a such a, a9:27 a failure in life, I'm I'll take it. You know? I'm superimposed by news every year. You know, I live a good life. So if that's a bad life compared to whatever lives they lead, I'll take the life I got.9:38 Amen. And with that, we're gonna come right back. We're gonna take a quick break. Stay right there.

You are watching Grace Grace with Nina and Michelle, and our special guest, Kevin Sorbo, talking all things Jesus, Christian, politics, everything. So, Kevin, politics, how10:57 crazy are things happening right now? And, again, seeing what the devil meant for harm, look at Trump, look at all his indictments, raising 400000000 dollars. You know, people are not stupid. What to what's11:09 going on here? What do you say about all of this? I know you're at a lot of the Trump fundraisers. You're at a lot of the things. We see you at these things. Tell us.11:19 Well, it's I I I I I watched some of these polls that come in. I'll flip through MSNBC and CNN and Fox. I'll flip through them all. And I just get a kick out of these things, and I say that his approval rate is low, but11:30 it's still, like, 40 percent or so. I don't believe it's even that. I heard some say it's 33. But who are these people?11:35 Exactly. People11:37 that that I wanna meet them. And not to have a fight, not to have a argument. I wanna actually11:41 sit down with him. Hercules. Now11:44 he's a better president than anybody. I mean, he's the guy's worst president we've ever ever had. Look what he's done to the country. Look what he's done to the world. And if president Trump had pulled out11:56 of Afghanistan and left 40 or 80000000000 dollars of our military equipment behind, the press would have been just relentless attacking us.12:06 Exactly. Yes.12:07 He does it. And what do we have? 13 soldiers dying, another 30, 40 that were lost arms and legs. And don't say anything about it. This guy, he's he's totally incompetent. You know Obama's pulling the strings behind it12:18 all because I feel almost bad for Biden because he's at an age now where he can't even remember where he is. And it's sad. We make jokes about it, but the reality is this guy's it's just he he's not coherent at all, and12:29 it's quite sad. Looking forward to these debates. But to sit there and say this guy is a good president, everything he did has made the country worse. Gas is a buck 80 a gallon. It went to 7 dollars a12:41 gallon. Still 7 bucks in California for some reason. Somebody was telling me the other day. And I'm looking at this going, we were energy independent. We were we had the lowest our crime rate was getting going down12:52 1400000.0 people across the border in 4 years compared to 15000000 today. We've let hundreds of thousands of terrorists into this country. Do you realize we're we are setting up, and it's on purpose. We're they're13:03 setting up with these terrorists. There's gonna be a massive 9 11 happening in 30 cities at the same time somewhere down the road. And then liberals will blame it on Trump somehow apparently, but it's just it's13:14 unbelievable what's going on in the world right now.13:16 And then stay in power.13:17 Do you13:17 think they'll use these things to stay in power? You know? Because because it'll be a wartime president or something to that effect. You know these things are13:25 playing. And now you have Putin with a submarine down in Cuba that could have a hypersonic missile, and all Biden wants to do is talk about abortion and now amnesty for13:36 all the people that are illegally in our country.13:39 Why is it? Why is it every election, every other every 2 years there's elections going on that either the number 1 or number 2 biggest thing with Democrats is we wanna be able to kill human babies. We13:51 wanna kill human life. It's murder. I don't care what you say. Is it 50 years of brainwashing people on a sole abortion thing? These are human lives. We're we're the Democrats love child sacrifice.14:03 It is pathetic, and it's sick. And it's it's so bizarre. It's Yeah. It's just they'll they'll say they'll trap them, you know, they'll hug a tree. They'll they'll wanna kill you for eating a sea turtle egg, but, you14:15 know, I wanna kill a baby. Why not why don't we do it? They love murder. They are the they are the violent, violent, violent political party out there.14:22 And the 85000 missing children that nobody can account for, where are those children? Nobody seems to be caring about that crisis. And then, again, to your point about, oh, pro women when they're gonna be killing14:34 babies, but what about the pro women when it comes to sports? When all these girls who who cannot, you know, have their scholarships or win these things because they let guys in there, then they're not about the women14:45 when it comes to these things. And, you know, I know you have a daughter, and I, you know, I know it's like you you just have got to be wondering, you know, like, these days, like, what the what what is happening with14:55 girls and women, what they're doing, and people going missing. It's it's just terrible what's been allowed and what people are covering up for them in this country.15:05 Shame on the parents. Seriously. Yeah. When you got when you got these transgenders coming in to compete against your daughter Mhmm. In softball, swimming, basketball, whatever it may be, and you allow it to happen, you15:15 just kinda shrug your shoulders. And I know there's a lot of them out there that hate it and just read it. Well, then speak up. Stop being such a sheep. Wake the hell up. Take your kids out. Have your own athletic club15:25 with girls. Yeah. There was an excellent interview with the transgender who said, why don't you all you transgenders just compete against each other? And then the girl said, well, then I would I would lose my advantage.15:37 So they they already know because they're male that they're gonna have an advantage over these women. But, you know, we can't say that. Why can't we say that?15:45 Well, if we say that.15:47 You know?15:47 It's weird. True.15:49 I mean15:49 Well, even Democrats still like and your shut up15:52 transgender movement is going too far. You know, we're they're starting to lose their own party to this transgender movement.16:01 But why are we giving so much creeds in such a loud voice to less than 1 half of a half a percent of the population? I don't get it. I mean, look. Pride month, it it pisses me off. Give them a day. I'm fine16:13 with that. Why does veterans get 1 day?16:16 Yes. Exactly.16:17 Pride gets a month? Are you kidding me? Yeah. I mean, it makes no sense to me. Give them a day. Fine. Give them a day. I don't care if somebody's gay. I don't I could care less. I I've been in the industry 40 years. I've16:28 worked with gay people in every single set I've been on. You won't find 1 in 40 years in this business that said he was so mean. He was so homophobic, which makes me doesn't mean you fear gays. I'm not afraid of gays.16:39 But the whole thing is I'm not I could I could care less. I I I I treat them all the same. I treat everybody the same on the set. I wanna have a fun set. I wanna open set. But to sit there and to give them an16:51 entire month makes no sense to me. Our veterans are the ones that made us able to have 5 month. Made us be we have our laws are based on what the Bible says. Now we wanna get rid of the Bible. We did that17:03 19 64. It's only gotten worse since then. And it's just it's just and the list goes on and on. It gets exhausting. But I'll tell you what, what you guys are doing, what I'm doing, we have to keep fighting the fight. We17:13 have to keep the voice going out there.17:14 We do not.17:15 Because they're coming after all of us.17:16 And people who are saying that you're gonna get shut down if you're the church or a show like ours or whatever because because you're talking about Jesus, so be it. Because we're you know what? God's gonna, you know,17:26 look to us if we're gonna answer to him if we we're silent.17:29 Well, true. And we wanna make sure that we're standing on the word always, and we we love the sinner. We hate the sin, and so we we definitely want them to repent and get right17:41 with the Lord. And with that, we'll come back to Kevin Sorbo.Show more In this video 0:00 Faith, Family, and Film10:01 Cultural and Political Challenges17:45 God, Government, and the Power of Faith
