The Fighting Preacher Movie - Release date July 24, 2019

View descriptionShare

Martin Tanner interviews film-maker T.C. Christensen, director and producer of acclaimed movies:  17 Miracles, Ephraim's Rescue, Cokeville Miracle and The Work and the Glory.  T.C.'s latest film "The Fighting Preacher" is a true story about Willard and Rebecca Bean's 25 year long mission in 1915 to Palmyra, New York.  At the time, the Hill Cumorah had been entirely deforested and dug-up by treasure seekers, and the Restored Church of Christ owned virtually no property in the area.  The Fighting Preacher chronicles how slowly, Willard and Rebecca Bean turn Palmyra residents from antagonists to friends; and, how they help the Church purchase the Hill Cumorah, the Smith Family Farm, Whitmer Farm, Martin Harris Farm and other properties, as well as replant trees on the Hill Cumorah.  The story of Willard and Rebecca Bean is not one of proselyting, but of ministering.
