I was beyond thrilled when I was asked to watch a prescreening of the movie, Home Run.

Here is a little bit about the movie that will begin showing in theaters April 19 –

FREEDOM IS POSSIBLE – HOME RUN

This is about a baseball all-star by the name of  Cory Brand.  He is a great baseball player, but his past abuse is  overtaking his life and he is spinning out of control.  He is covering up the pain by drinking.  He tries to convince himself that the alcohol is not a problem, and more or less, he is the victim since he was the product of abuse.

He has been having several issues on the field with his temper and receiving a DUI, that Cory’s agent sends him back to his hometown where he grew up and the abuse occurred.  He is forced to coach the youth baseball team and also spend  eight weeks in the only recovery program in town.  Cory goes through the process, but does not really putting his heart into it.  After many mistakes there and finally realizing he needs freedom from his past and hope for his future, he gets the help he needs.   Cory finds new life from giving up his past life of abuse. He now has a future.

HOME RUN is a powerful reminder that with God, all things are possible. . .freedom is possible. The first step truly is admitting we need to be rescued and we have to face our past to move on.

I think this was an amazing story of HOPE.  So many people are struggling with a past that is haunting them, but this truly reveals that with Christ. . all things are possible.  We can overcome anything, but we first have to admit we cannot do it alone. I also think it helps you realize that no matter what position you are in life (i.e. he was a professional baseball player), we all still have pain in life.

I would highly recommend seeing this movie as it is uplifting and I think many will be able to relate to the story line.  Freedom is possible!  It is not just for Christians either it is for anyone that is trying to overcome their shortcomings and when it is finished, I am certain you will be full of HOPE!!
