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 Nyna and Michelle. I'm Michelle Humphreys.0:56 And I am Nyna Keegan. Welcome to our broadcast today. Today, we have just we're so honored and blessed to have this powerful couple with us today. Michelle, you wanna do the introduction?1:06 Yeah. I mean, these these guys, you know, we have people all over the church that are saying, God, what can I do? They must get an answer 90 times a day from the Lord because they're all over the1:18 map, and what they're doing, I'm so impressed. Today, we have Hercules and Serena.1:26 We're1:29 talking about, and you will know them, Kevin and Sam Sorbo, and we'll talk more about what they're doing, and we're so thrilled to have them. You please1:41 welcome Kevin and Sam.1:44 Guys, welcome.1:45 God bless you guys. Thanks for being on the program.1:49 Thanks for having us. Pleasure to be here.1:50 So you guys, you know we all know this world is a hot mess. There's no other way to say it right now. This nation is in trouble. And, you know, so much of what's happening is just is2:02 starting at the school level and going on from there. What what we have found out during COVID, what our children are being taught, and what's happening. So so we see that you guys are out there. You're such a2:13 homeschool parent advocates. You're advocates for pro life. You're you're advocating for all biblical worldview. So Making movies. Christian films. You're on shows.2:25 Everywhere. So so you guys, what is on your heart today? What is do you think is 1 of the most important things that that we should be focusing on now to to2:36 change something in the world to go in our favor?2:41 Well, I'll let Sam take that, but I got thrown. Everything you just mentioned makes Hollywood love us that much more.2:48 Can't care about them anymore.2:51 Thank you for not being silent. Yes. Amen. We are grateful for your courage because courage begets courage.2:58 Yes.2:59 And guys have not backed down, so hail to the chiefs.3:03 Yeah. You're very sweet. I think that, I think that really what it comes down to is we're both in love with the truth and it's very difficult for us to compromise3:15 that, so we don't. And if standing for the truth gets you hated by the world, then so be it. The hope would be that other people would take3:26 note and start standing for the truth themselves. And the reason that I say that is because if you don't stand for the truth, you're compromising your integrity, you're compromising your honor, you're compromising your3:38 character, and it's very difficult to recover from that. And so, I know that it's a scary time. It's hard to stand up for the truth, but I think what we are about is trying to3:50 encourage people to do that. And even if it's in just a small way, to stand up for what you know is right and not to accept a lie, as difficult as it4:02 is, you will come out the other side better and stronger.4:06 Amen. Well, truth truth is kryptonite to the left. Mean, it really is. I mean, it's unbelievable. I I'm actually a victim of the cancel culture in the woke world before it even became terminology 12 years ago my4:17 manager a transcendent.4:18 I know. My manager and agent, they said they said we can't work anymore because you're a Christian and conservative in Hollywood. And I went wow. And I said you guys are the ones who all scream for tolerance, but as we4:28 know, it's all a 1 way street with these guys. So it's pretty sad. But we're fighting the good fight, and God opened a different door for me. And now I'm doing movies that pretty much are filled with faith and love and4:39 laughter and redemption and hope, things that the world needs more than anything. And type of movies Hollywood used to do but doesn't do anymore.4:46 You know, and that's that is so needed and so interesting, and I know some of your movies like God's Not Dead and others are just, you know, Miracle in East Texas, just such awesome movies, and and that you can watch4:57 with your family without cringing. And, you know, honestly, getting out of Hollywood, you know, that place anymore, like, I I always think I don't know. I don't have a clue who's there, who's in a movie, who's on5:09 a record anymore. And I think so many people, as you see with the Oscars and with some of the award shows, nobody's watching these things anymore. No. You know, so there is a big shift for what you guys are doing and5:19 it's so needed and and people are sick of it. And yet they keep throwing their woke agendas, even Disney. And so, you know, so thank you for what you're doing and so that you have left this all behind.5:31 And so what is the biggest struggle in getting some good Christian content out there for you?5:37 Well, I think the biggest struggle we've always had is is just finding funding. I mean, we do movies in the 3 to 5000000 range. That sounds like a lot of money. That's catering budget on these 300000000 dollar Avatar and5:48 Avengers and Thor movies and Spider Man movies that Hollywood does. And I know we talked a little earlier about this. We kinda touched on it without saying it. You know, we say, you know, it's in God's timing. Sometimes5:57 I get a little impatient with God because we got good messages to get out there. And it's it's it's and it's frustrating because we do good movies. And once they get out there, people love them. I get stopped all the6:06 time through airports, hotel lobbies, whatever, and people say, keep doing what you're doing. It's not about Hercules anymore. It's about God's not dead, what if, let there be lights Amen. Left behind. That's what people6:16 stop me for. And I gotta say real quickly, pretty much every movie I've done over the last 6, 7 years, and I do about 4 movies a year. And every movie I do, I get an actor, I get a director, I get a camera guy. Somebody6:27 comes up and says, thanks for being a voice6:29 for us.6:30 And I go, yeah. Be a voice for yourself, but they're afraid. And that's the favorite weapon of of not only government, but Hollywood and the mainstream media is fear. Fear is just something they love to instill in6:40 people. And I said, the only person you're supposed to fear is God. It's in the bible. You're not supposed to fear government. But, they they they wield it as quite a big and powerful weapon.6:49 Well, see, you walked away from Hollywood and you didn't care about the cancel culture, and now look at God is opening these doors for you, and, you know, as this whole wave is shifting over and people are finding out6:59 the truth, you know, you're gonna be, and you already are, on the right side of things. And so, you know, that's that's the thing about it. You stepped away without the fear where so many people cave to that and and and7:11 just get fearful and they they just, you know, don't want that canceling. But, you know, if you let God order your steps, look what happens, you know, he'll start to bring the victories in your life. So it's amazing to7:22 watch and see because the movies are being so well met and and received.7:27 Well, and recently, did a study the he was talking about the number 1 way to reach people for the7:38 Lord and to have an impact is movies, and there you are.7:43 Well you know, well I mean Jesus was a story teller. There's a reason for that. We are, as human beings, we're very responsive to stories. And that's why we established Sorbo Studios. That's why we started a 5 07:55 1 c 3 so that people could donate a tax deduct with a tax deduction to funding movies like this or funding the prints and advertising, the money that gets the movies8:06 into theaters, and to have a wider reach because this is why we make these movies. Look, we're living in what what you're talking about right now is the cancel culture, right? It's the8:18 culture that says you are not forgiven for what you've done. It's literally the antithesis of Christianity. Wow. And that is the culture that is now taking over. And if you succumb to it, if you succumb8:30 to the fear of being canceled, then you become part of that culture of of of non Christian non Christianity. Right? Un Christianity. And I think8:42 that that's a dangerous place to be. I think that we're seeing the the culmination of that in the media and in the in our politics today of people that serve not God, but the dollar.8:54 They're willing to compromise anything just for power and money, and it's a terrible way to live your life, but it's also a terrible way to run a country or run a culture.9:06 You can't trust anybody anymore because they will betray you for a dime, And we don't want to live that way, so we live our lives differently and we're hoping to affect other people that way. That's why we made you know,9:18 Miracle in East Texas did very well in theatres. It did very well on DVD. It's still available. Where can they get that movie? What's that website called? Sorbostudios dot com.9:27 That's it. Sorbostudios dot com.9:29 And it's a wonderful, uplifting family movie that also talks a little bit about redemption and forgiveness, which are 2 very important qualities that our culture has9:41 for centuries upheld, that it's now squandering, and we need more of that in our culture. So we're just we're very honored to be able to pursue this path, frankly.9:50 Amen. Hey, you guys. We are gonna take a quick break, and we will be right back.

What a remarkable couple doing such amazing things for the Lord in all they do. And Sam, 1 of the things11:07 that I know is so important in your life and near and dear to your heart is homeschooling. And, you know, I I've I've seen some of your podcasts and and where you're talking about, you know, emancipating our kids from11:19 this crazy school ideology where we now have drag queen story hour, pornography in our schools. Like, it's just unbelievable. And, you know, if there was ever a silver11:31 lining in COVID is that people were able to see what their kids were learning in the schools, and we have been just dead to what's been happening around us. And but you have been a Holton11:43 School mom, and you have been advocating to this, and this is so, so, so important. So can you speak to this, just anything that's on on your heart about all of this? It's so important.11:54 Well, yeah. In fact, I just covered there's a a mom who went undercover just recently inside a school. She had noticed that there was some inappropriate material on her son's notebook, her Chromebook.12:06 And so she took it to the principal and they apologized. They said, you know, it must have gotten past their very stringent efforts to screen12:17 everything that was given to children. And the child was 11 years old. Oh, wow. And then she discovered it again, of course. Mhmm. Because they want it there.12:29 Yeah. Yes.12:30 They do. Can't stop we can't be pretending that this is not happening on purpose. Of course, it's happening on purpose. You you don't put up the firewall and then something gets through, not when12:42 it's an entire website that has appendage enhancements, sex dolls, toys, all kinds of paraphernalia. And this is12:54 given to children. By the way, parents, on alert. Chromebooks are not safe. And as long as parents won't step up and talk to the principals about13:06 this, it's going to continue. So she went undercover and I just posted the video of her talking to them and the science teacher, because it came through the science classes. And they're13:18 talking to children and telling them that they have these urges, that they shouldn't resist these urges and to go on and do heavy petting. They're coaching them. They are grooming these13:29 children, and are children. And my first question was, the first time that she saw it, she didn't remove her child? She accepted the apology?13:41 Wow.13:41 All right. Alright. We'll give her a pass for that. But the second time, I I would hope that that little boy is no longer in school. But she's the 1 who kept saying to the principal, you know, at a certain13:53 point, he he's only innocent for a certain amount of time, and you're you're ruining his innocence. You're you're abolishing that, and he's no longer innocent. He's 11 years old, and he sees he has seen things that he14:05 won't be able to unsee. So here's the thing, though. I I've I've taken it to, in a sense, to another level, because what we have to understand is is14:17 that they've they've been allowed to put this stuff into the schools because they know that they have conditioned the parents to not protest. All of us parents who went14:29 to school, we were trained to sit in a classroom and shut up Mhmm. Ask permission before we asked a question. We had to raise our hand in order to get permission to even ask14:40 a question. And so now the parents won't raise a won't ask a question, won't raise a question. In fact, she pressed the principal in the school, and she said, you need to make an14:52 announcement. You need to let parents know that this this stuff is available on the Chromebooks for any child to uncover. And by the way, it came from a website that very clearly states this is not at all for children.15:03 This is not even for high school. This is for postgraduate from college. It's not even for college. And they're giving it. They are purposely giving it to children. And the principal15:15 said, if a parent comes to us, we will address it then. In other words, they will not make apologies. They will not take it off the Chromebooks. They are grooming your children in school. And so parents are like,15:27 well, what can I do? I have to send my child to school. And that's, of course, where I come in, and I say, no, you don't. In fact, what's amazing is education is the most natural thing. They make15:39 it difficult because they want job security. So they've made us believe education is difficult, School is hard. Learning is hard. Teaching is hard. And all of those are15:50 lies meant to trap you so that you will turn your children over to them so they can be groomed.15:57 I think 1 of the blessings of COVID is that 2000000 more families are now homeschooled.16:02 Amen.16:02 Because they finally woke up and looked at the reality of what the school boards are doing and what all levels of education are doing and and from getting her to twelfth grade and said, enough is enough. You know, she16:12 talks about raising your hand. I've I've always said we should run the school classrooms like to do the British parliament. I don't know if you've ever seen videos of these guys. Yeah. But they all talk over each other.16:20 I slept down.16:21 Because it's always so bad.16:22 They just go for the jugular with each other, but there's a great debate that goes on. And you get both sides of the issue, not just climate change climate change. You know what? There's as many scientists in the other16:32 side side that say, no. That's not really happening. But we don't hear that side, do we?16:37 No. They shut everything that you know, honestly, listen to what the Bible says, the truth will set you free. Well, they hide the truth on every level about every single But, know, I I believe the more pushback, I I16:48 believe things are coming to light, and I believe that it will continue to do so, you know. At the end of the day, we know who wins. God wins every time. And so, you know, it it just how many people we're gonna take with16:57 us? And it's so important what you're saying, and I and and I know that you have good tips and curriculums and all different kinds of things that you you advocate for and that are that are just ways people can17:09 jump start their their homeschool education. I17:11 I try to make it very easy for parents because frankly all17:15 kinds of information.17:16 Everything is at Sorbo Studios, and I try to make it easy for parents because frankly, it's just not that hard. Mhmm. And and what's even better is it's not only easier than you ever imagined, it's actually17:28 more enjoyable than you ever dared to dream. And so and this is why I'm so passionate about it, because I approached it with great trepidation. I think I said to Kevin, I need to homeschool, but17:40 here's the good news. If I fail at homeschooling, I do believe he'll still be better off. And, of course, it's gotten worse today, so you can fail Yeah. And your child will still be better off. And, by the way, you'll be17:52 better off as a parent. We've learned so much from our children. It's it's a it's a whole new paradigm. It's like it's like living in technicolor when the schools are in black and white.18:04 So what does it say about our public education system that you just went through yourself, kindergarten through twelfth grade, and you say, I don't know. I don't think I'm smart enough to teach a first grader. So what is18:14 that?18:16 Well,18:16 hey. Let hold that thought.18:18 Turned out the likes of you.18:20 Yeah. Well, guys, we'll be right back. Stay right there.18:23 I'm excited to announce that we're having our biggest Christmas sale ever.

We are here with Sam and Kevin Sorbo, and we're talking about how to save the world before bedtime, basically. I'm telling19:35 you, Kevin and Sam, they need to write the the next book needs to be time management because apparently they're very good at it because they have such a long list of what they're up to19:47 right now. So can you go into that, Kevin and Sam?19:51 Well, real quickly, I've got 4 movies in post production right now. And I got 2 documentaries coming out that I'm very excited about. We spent she she came along to tag herself along. We spent 3 weeks in Israel last year20:02 before the war broke out. And through archaeological digs, we traced the, flow of the Ark of the Covenant. It was incredibly fascinating. It's called The Quest for the Throne. That'll be out probably midsummer, late20:12 summer. I have 1 coming out Easter week with Brent Miller and Ingenuity Films. We have the number 1 documentary a couple years ago called Before the Wrath that I narrated in and what Brent's company did again deals with20:24 the second coming. But the latest one's gonna come out Easter week, and it deals with the Last Supper, and it's called Eating with the Enemy. It's an amazing look at the Last Supper, what led up to it and what happened,20:35 of course, shortly afterwards. So I hope people will check that out. Sorbo Studios dot com is a great place to go. But I have a new book out. Sam and I, I did a book called True Strength. We did a book together,20:44 follow-up called True Faith. She has a number of books out there in in public schools out there. But I think a lot of people remember all the news about Kirk Cameron when he was reading wanting to read his Brave book at20:54 libraries, and they wouldn't let him, but they were okay with drag queens20:57 Of course. Yeah.20:59 Let's go figure this out. So my book my book is about embracing masculinity, and it's with Brave Books, and it's called The Test of Blindhood. Of course, the alphabet crowd came after me and say I'm trans this and trans21:09 that. No. No. I'm not trans anything. I'm just pro child. I'm all about letting21:12 children grow up grow up21:14 to become adults. Anti what?21:17 You're not trans anything. You're they say you're anti something.21:21 I'm anti trans. I know. I just get passionate talking about it. But it's a wonderful book. And Brave Books, please go to brave books dot com and check out the wonderful things to do. You get a new book every single month21:32 with it. You order now, get my book for free if you as long as you sign up. It's called the test of blindhood.21:36 It's kinda21:37 cool because wherever you see them attacking, that's probably a good place to be. Yeah.21:41 Exactly. That means you're over the target. That's what we both say all the time. You know, because I21:46 have a Tisha that says I only follow people who have been canceled.21:49 Exactly. Because that's where the truth is. You know, that's the thing. You wanna know what's the truth is? See what's being shut down. You know, our ministry has been shut down off social media so much, and we're like,21:59 it's a badge of honor. You know, so You were canceled by22:01 a bank before that even22:03 kicked us out because out of the blue. Yep.22:06 So we know we were we knew at that day that, hey, we're doing something right.22:12 So you guys are doing great things for the Lord and we know that you are such advocates. Keep doing everything you're doing. Like, so I know you're big pro life advocates too, and so that is so so important.22:21 I do a lot of pro life speaking, by the22:23 Mhmm. And that yeah. And so, you know, do you want to touch on that quick? Because that is so huge. What what what they're trying to do with that and abortion is just outrageous. So22:32 Well, what they've managed to do in our culture is they've devalued the child. Abortion is basically devaluing the child, devaluing the human being. And I don't know how you can devaluing22:44 life. That's correct. And I don't know how you can claim that you care about the child after the child is born, but that you'd just as soon kill the child in the womb. Right? And22:55 so and this is what they've done, and and, you know, we're we feel very strongly about this. And they discovered that Kevin was pro life, and then all of a sudden, all the invitations kept coming in because he's a very23:07 passionate speaker, and he brings the message to the events that he does. I actually have an event for a pregnancy clinic coming up also because we're very passionate about this. We think23:19 that if you don't value life, then we don't have a culture. We don't have a country. There's no reason to have borders. I mean, it all falls apart if you don't value life. And so that's where that's really23:31 where it begins and ends. And I do want to encourage people. When you go to Sorbo Studios, you'll be prompted to sign up for the emails. We get we have a lot of fun with the emails. We tell great stories. People really23:41 enjoy them. And so I want to encourage people. It'll just bring a little bit of sunshine into their inbox about once every week or so. Not too much, but we just like to stay in touch with people. Heaven was23:53 canceled off of Facebook a few years back and off of LinkedIn. I remember that. And So23:59 I lost I lost between the 2, I lost probably around 2 and a half million followers.24:03 So we realized that the the way to stay in touch with people really has to be either email or text. Right now, we're emailing. We're we're going to be transitioning to texts.24:12 They can follow me on Twitter, though. Go to k sorbs. K sorbs, and my buddies call me sorbs. And, I do very sarcastic truth.24:20 Twitter feed is hilarious.24:22 But I I love that. Example during COVID example during COVID, I said, you wanna get rid of COVID? Tell the Clintons that COVID's got something on there.24:30 Well, that that's probably all in their emails. So24:33 And by the way, like, that that that's actually helpful for us. Yeah. I have a video that came out just recently from an interview that I did where I explained how fascism is left wing, not right wing. Even though they24:44 try to cast it as right wing, that's actually a ruse in order to make you think that right wing people can be just as as cruel or just as, you know, violent as left wing, and that's absolutely not true.24:56 And I did this video, and what's amazing is the amount of flack I got25:01 Oh, yeah.25:01 Which really helped the video. It did over 1 and a half million or close to 1 and a half million views because of all of the acrimony around it.25:14 So it's actually an interesting thing. When you're drawing fire, you're not only over the target, you're actually drawing attention so that other people can see you and hear the truth, and25:26 that's just a good thing. Amen.25:27 So please, wokesters out there, attack all of my movies in a given way, please.25:31 Watch my watch my podcast. I do the Sam Sorbo Show once a week, so listen to my podcast. And if you disagree with what I say, by all means, take me on. I'm happy for the debate.25:42 Oh, and that is good because people need to know the truth, and that's what they do. They have questions that they that they just things they think that are not really true. So do you guys wanna we have just about 3025:52 seconds. If you guys wanna say a quick prayer for our viewers, and then and we'll make sure if you wanna you know, we'll add your website too. We'll have that link up on our show too so people can find you guys as well.26:03 So thank you so much for being here. No. They can find you. So anyway26:10 Well, they can find us at sorbo studios dot com.26:12 Okay.26:13 Sorbo studios dot com. And26:16 Well, you know what I pray for people out there? That they're not afraid to speak the truth. They're not afraid to come out and be honest and be open and not be afraid to be attacked because that's a gift. We all know,26:25 as you mentioned earlier, we all know how this ends. It ends standing at all of us in front of our lord and savior and and and our father god. And people need to not let fear control their lives.26:36 Second Timothy 1 7, for God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. That means use your minds Amen.26:45 And you26:45 will not be afraid.26:47 Amen. So good. You guys, thank you so much. We have so enjoyed it. And we just we love what you're doing. Keep doing what you're doing. We pray that everything you touch, God will bless and prosper you for his26:58 glory. We love you guys, and God bless you.27:01 God bless you. Thank you.27:02 Does science disprove God? Is there27:05 a war between science and faith?Show more
