Courageous

As law-enforcement officers, Adam Mitchell, Nathan Hayes, and their partners are confident and focused. They willingly stand up to the worst the world can offer. Yet when they take off their badges at the end of the day, they face a challenge that none of them are truly prepared to tackle: fatherhood. While they consistently give their best on the job, good-enough seems to be all they can muster as dads. But they're quickly discovering that their standard is missing the mark. They know that God desires to turn the hearts of fathers to their children, but their children are beginning to drift further and further away from them. Will they be able to find a way to serve and protect those that are most dear to them? When tragedy hits home, these men are left wrestling with their hopes, their fears, their faith, and their fathering. Can a newfound urgency help these dads draw closer to God ... and to their children? "Courageous" is the fourth release of Sherwood Pictures, the film-making ministry of Sherwood Church in Albany, Georgia. Their first release since "Fireproof" the No. 1 independent film of 2008, "Courageous" joins "Facing the Giants" and "Flywheel" in touching and impacting lives through heartfelt stories of faith and hope. Moviegoers will again find themselves crying, laughing, and cheering--sometimes simultaneously--as they are inspired by everyday heroes who long to be the kinds of dads that make a lifelong impact on their children. Protecting the streets is second-nature to these law-enforcement officers. Raising their children? That will take courage. "Courageous"--honor begins at home.
