I love finding new shows to watch. I was able to watch Season 1 of Vindication on PureFlix last week. Actually, I binge watched the whole season, 10 episodes, in 2 days. lol And then I wished there had been more episodes in season 1!

Vindication is an original crime drama series on PureFlix. Started in 2005 by Michael Scott, David A.R. White, and Russell Wolfe, PureFlix leading faith & family friendly streaming video service.

Vindication is not one of the usual crime drama shows you usually see. It’s a faith based show that follows Detective Travis (Todd Terry, Breaking Bad), a 15 year police veteran in a small town in Texas. He faces a big adjustment when he is assigned a new trainee, that he doesn’t really want. His family is also featured in the episodes. His devoutly religious wife, and his estranged daughter that returns home. Other than a couple of higher ups in the police department that are shown occasionally, the episodes feature a new story line, and new characters in each .

I’m not seeing an official age rating, but Vindication is suitable for teenagers and adults.

One of the unique features to Vindication, is that while they are investigating the cases, there is always a faith based lesson that one of the characters learns by the end of each episode.

Vindication Season 1 Trailer

Check out the Vindication Season 1 trailer. (Sorry about the cookie warning on the video. There is nothing I can do about it, as it’s not on my end. If you don’t want to accept the cookies, you can still watch the video, just hit play, it just won’t be full screen.)

Here’s a sampling of some of the themes in Vindication Season 1 include, and there are many more.

• relinquishing control
• Stressed parent/child relationships
• Repaired parent/child relationship
• Making decisions to turn your life around
• Telling the truth about hard things
• Relying on prayer
• Deliverance
• PTSD/military
• Marriage challenges
• Drug addiction/relapse/recovery
• Misunderstood odd behavior
• Assuming the best in people
• Autism/Disability
• Keeping up with the Joneses/wealth/income
• Parenting teenagers
• Unanticipated consequences of sin
• Self control and self mastery
• Grass isn’t always greener

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first started watching Vindication. I didn’t realize that each episode was separate, and the story didn’t continue for the whole season. But after episode 1, I was hooked. I loved Vindication. I highly recommend it for teens and adults. For more information, visit the Vindication website.

I’m really looking forward to watching season 2. Which I will start doing very soon! lol

This summer, I was able to watch a screener for the new movie 2 Hearts to review. 2 Hearts shows us that every moment is a gift. Several themes run throughout the movie: sacrificial love, hope, family, and miracles.

For two couples the future unfolds in different decades and different places, but a hidden connection will bring them together in a way no one could have predicted. Based on an inspirational true story, 2 HEARTS is a romantic journey that celebrates life, love and generosity of spirit, and will strengthen our belief that miracles still happen.

2 Hearts in theaters October 16, 2020!

I liked this movie. No, I didn’t love it. I found it hard to follow the story line at first. It took a little bit to get to know the characters and follow the story line. Once the film got going, and I learned the characters, I enjoyed the movie.

There was some language that was unnecessary. I always find it disappointing when otherwise good movies have to use language that gets a higher rating. I suggest you follow the rating advice, or pre-watch it before sharing with your kids or teens. Overall, though, I did enjoy this movie.

Watch this exclusive clip….

2 Hearts is in theaters now!!

I recently received a Butterfly Box to review. Never heard of a Butterfly Box? It’s a monthly subscription box just for women of faith. It was so nice to have this Butterfly Box full of faith building items delivered right to my house.

Butterfly Box’s own description:

Life is busy, and it can be hard to find the time each day to connect with Christ. Butterfly Box is here to help! We thoughtfully curate a themed box each month to help reclaim those quiet moments with God, build your intimacy with Christ, and live out your faith in the world around you!

A little about what’s included in a Butterfly Box:

~Each month’s box is designed to illustrate a biblical theme and encourage spiritual growth.

~5 to 6 items such as jewelry, artwork, books, decor, personal pampering items, faith sharing cards and other specialty items

~All items are carefully chosen and undergo a rigorous selection process

~Products are faith-based or support small Christian businesses.

The theme of this months box was Women of Prayer. It included the book, The Power of a Praying Woman, a journal, this pretty prayer bracelet, and two organic Tea Drops – to make tea to enjoy during your quiet time.

If you haven’t read this book, I highly recommend it! This version has a nice leather like cover. I think the fact that they included this instead of a paperback book speaks to the quality of the boxes.

Also included the box were these two cards. One tells about everything included in the box. The other is a Weekly Prayer Guide. This can be used over and over again. it includes daily prayer ideas for yourself, your family, your work or ministry, your community, & more.

Here are  a few samples of other Butterfly Boxes. They all look as amazing as the once I received.
