Sorry for the delayed response. We have been on the road, traveling with the film to film festivals, and have fallen behind a bit. We would be very interested in doing a radio appearance. Thank you for the offer. Just let us know.

I occasionally host a nationwide radio show – I am going to talk to my program mgr. about getting you on if you are interested.

Not online yet. Still screening at festivals. Should be on NetFlix, iTunes, Hulu, or the like by the end of the year, but we can probably get you a copy. Email us with an address and we can mail you a DVD once it is available.

Very interesting post. If this issue interests you, you should check out the Cleanflix documentary making the festival rounds right now. Actually, you would have made an interesting interview for the film, by the topic goes further than you may think.

First, Barbara is a Christian who is Roman Catholic (yes, there are non-Baptist Christians!). She is also someone who is making a difference in Hollywood (where it counts), and not just making films that only impress the choir. Speaking of the [co-]founder (I assume you mean Geisler and not Rhoads) here is one thing he said about Roman Catholics: “Rome has always held the common Augustinian belief of salvation by grace.” (Roman Catholics and Evangelicals: Agreements and Differences, p. 248). Add that to God, Jesus Christ, the Resurrection . . . is that enough to make them Christian (cf. 1 Cor. 15:1-5)?

Second, I never “slammed the good intentions” of SBC (and I would be happy to see your evidence that I did). I do not know their intentions – but I do know their work, and criticism comes with the territory. Facing the Giants, for example, sent a bad message whether SBC intended it or not (evaluation here). In fact, I assume they didn’t – hopefully they will do better in the future (Fireproof was something of an improvement). Perhaps you are more interested in slamming my good intentions and taking weak pot-shots at other believers than offering anything constructive, but if you actually have considerate arguments based on fact I’d be happy to take a look at them (I wrote a book, after all, and criticism comes with that territory too.

(BTW: “Daring” someone to post a comment was considered immature a decade ago – now it’s just embarrassing (or should be). I only screen comments to avoid spamming – not rudeness – so your “dare” was unnecessary. )

Is Barbara Nicolosi Christian or Catholic? The founder of your alma mater and institution of employment has a lot to say about the difference. This is the best you could do after slamming the good intentions of Sherwood Baptist Church? – people who actually produce films instead of pompously criticize them. Or, maybe you could write a book about Patron Saints of cinema? Dare you to publish this in entirety…..
