‘Fireproof’ burning up the charts

By WND Staff


Joe Gibbs knows competing and he knows winning from his years of coaching NFL championship teams and his ownership of Joe Gibbs Racing, and now he’s praising the DVD “Fireproof” – the newest No. 1 best-seller on the Top Ten list at Shop.WND.com – as inspirational.

“I’ve spent my entire life trying to win in two different pro sports,” Gibbs said. “What I appreciate about ‘Fireproof’ is that it’s an entertaining and challenging reminder of what it takes to win in marriage.”

“Fireproof,” described as the No. 1 inspirational movie of the year, stars Kirk Cameron and is the story of a marriage on the rocks and whether it can be renewed by a leap of faith.

It was just last fall that “Fireproof” stunned the movie industry, becoming a huge surprise hit and one of the most profitable movies ever made by the standard of budget-to-gross ratio.

It tells the story of Capt. Caleb Holt, a firefighter who lives by the rule, “Never leave your partner behind.”

But arguments over jobs, finances, housework and other interests are driving a wedge between him and his wife, Catherine.

Then Caleb’s father offers his son a challenge – to love unconditionally as God loves, and Caleb “begins to understand what it means to truly love his wife.”

“Amazing! Action-packed, heartwarming, and a great resource to help strengthen and affirm marriages!” says Gary Smalley, author of “Change Your Life.”

“On top of a powerful message and the potential to change lives and marriages, this is one great movie!” added Bubba Cathy, senior vice president, Chick-fil-A.


In second is the popular “Shocked by the Bible” by Joe Kovacs.

The book asks if you knew that “Christmas” is not mentioned in the Bible, or that “Three Wise Men” appear nowhere in the Bible and it doesn’t mention them visiting baby Jesus in a Bethlehem manger.

It also reveals there were not just two of every kind of animal aboard Noah’s Ark.

These are just some of the startling facts revealed in “Shocked by the Bible: The Most Astonishing Facts You’ve Never Been Told,” by WND’s executive news editor.

“If you think you really know the Bible, better think again. Joe Kovacs takes a close look at the greatest story ever told and separates myth from reality,” said Fox News anchor Bill O’Reilly. “My favorite parts of the book deal with Christmas and Easter. Check out ‘Shocked by the Bible.’ You may well be shocked.”

“If people actually knew what was in their Bible – the astounding facts they’ve never heard – they’d rush to crack it open and get the surprise of their lives,” said Kovacs.


In third is “The Audacity of Deceit” by Brad O’Leary, who says President Obama’s “change” theme actually is “a hostile attack on the Judeo-Christian values and freedoms most Americans hold dear.”

O’Learly explains how Obama already has tried to uproot American culture and replace it with the failed, secular, socialist policies of the past in several areas:

  • He blocked emergency medical aid for babies who survived abortion.
  • Obama plans to ban the use of firearms by law-abiding citizens – even for self-defense.
  • He had his values influenced by being abandoned by a bigamist father and being raised in a Muslim society.
  • Obama seeks a Hoover-like 60 percent tax rate.
  • He wants farm land removed from production and fuel prices boosted.
  • He would transform the U.S. Treasury into the United Nations ATM and
  • He seeks a 0-to-5 program to move child-rearing responsibility from parents to the federal government.

It explains what you should expect as Obama leads the executive branch of the U.S. government in coming years.
