Kendrick Brothers to Release Flywheel Sequel
The Kendrick Brothers return to where it all began with Flywheel Ignition of the Soul, the long-awaited sequel to their 2003 debut film Flywheel, continuing the story that launched their filmmaking journey.

The Place of “Place”
I grew up on the Texas plains, a bland background I didn’t appreciate at the time. But one grand view on a clear evening lingers in my memory: the Dallas skyline, blazing up out of low purple ridges against a gaudy sunset. Since then I’ve moved around a lot and developed a taste for geography:… The post The Place of “Place” appeared first on Redeemed Reader.
