There will be three winners in today’s contest.  Each winner will receive a Franklin Springs Family Media DVD.  The DVDs that will be given away are listed below:

Still Standing:  The Stonewall Jackson Story
His legacy as a military genius is widely renowned. Now, in Still Standing: The Stonewall Jackson Story, his legacy as a man of Christian character is captured in this revealing documentary. Through stunning High Definition videography and expert narrative, Still Standing traces the life of Stonewall Jackson—from his orphaned childhood, to the Sunday School class he taught for African Americans, and his role he as General. Still Standing inspires, entertains, and educates.  You may learn more about this film and view a short trailer at the Franklin Springs Family Media web site:  LINK.

A Journey Home
When his family life demanded change, Tommy Waller took a giant step.  A Journey Home tells the story of the extraordinary path traveled by Tommy Waller, his wife, and their 11 children.  This sensitive documentary spans Tommy’s journey from 80 hour work weeks to a remote community in rural Tennessee.  The film also travels with the Wallers as their current work unfolds in Jerusalem and in the West Bank areas of Israel.  You may learn more about this film and view a short trailer at the Franklin Springs Family Media web site:  LINK.

An American Adventure: The Living Legacy of Jimmy Gentry
An American Adventure: The Living Legacy of Jimmy Gentry traces the life of 82 year old Jimmy Gentry from his Depression-era boyhood in historic Franklin, TN, to his military service in WWII, to his life-altering experience as one of the first liberating soldiers through the gates at the infamous Dachau concentration camp, to his over 50 years as a renowned football coach.  This film will truly encourage and entertain families by telling the story of a truly remarkable man.  You may learn more about this film and view a short trailer at the Franklin Springs Family Media web site:  LINK.
