Pastor Johnny Cochran shares his testimony and how God saved him, changed him, and made him a new creation! #Romans 8:31-39 New Living Translation Nothing Can Separate Us from God’s Love 31 What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us? 32 Since he did not spare even his own Son but gave him up for us all, won’t he also give us everything else? 33 Who dares accuse us whom God has chosen for his own? No one—for God himself has given us right standing with himself. 34 Who then will condemn us? No one—for Christ Jesus died for us and was raised to life for us, and he is sitting in the place of honor at God’s right hand, pleading for us. 35 Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death? 36 (As the Scriptures say, “For your sake we are killed every day; we are being slaughtered like sheep.”[a]) 37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. 38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. No matter who you are, what you have done, what you think of yourself, or anything else, GOD LOVES YOU! He loves you so much, that He sent his ONLY son to die on a cross and bear the weight of our sins. The #Bible says that all have sinned, and that the wages of sin are death. But there is an everlasting life through Jesus Christ. There is #HOPE! If you are watching this video, and you decide that it is time to give your life over to Jesus and allow him to be your Lord and Savior, there is no magic trick. It is simple. All He asks is that we call out to him, admit that you are a sinner, confess Jesus as Lord of your life, and believe in His scriptures! If you pray that #prayer, please feel free to contact us and let us know. We would love to hear from you and help you find a church to get connected with. You can learn more and contact us at www.forthrightfilms.org These testimonies are just a small glimpse of what God is doing in the Native American communities and tribal lands across North America. There are many more stories to tell, but we need your help to grow this ministry so that we can reach our goal of visiting as many reservations and tribal lands as possible.

I am currently down in Georgia with two Cherokee (Keetowah Band) brothers in Christ! We are getting ready to hit the road and begin filming a documentary on the Trail of Tears. We have been here for a few days now, getting the lay of the land, meeting people, and growing in knowledge before setting out. Now, we head to the next part of the adventure where we will travel 1,500 miles along the Trail of Tears as we look to reverse the curse of this horrible situation.

The @dutchmenrvcompany8749 17BH is an incredible small camper! Our ministry was blessed to have this unit donated for our work and we have been very happy with it! The video goes over the pros and a few cons of this unit. We are also very thankful to @kunesrv6304 @Kunescountryvideo for helping us find this great camper! Some things to consider: The unit is light — under 4,000lbs A generator will be needed for all 110 devices. This includes the electric fireplace (Not propane). A solar panel can be used to trickle charge the battery. This is not included. Verify the correct trailer ball for your camper. It is a very specific size.

In the late 1800s, Chief Long Wolf was attending a special event for Queen Victoria in London, England with Buffalo Bill's Wild West show. Chief Long Wolf fell ill with pneumonia during the trip and passed away in London. Later in that same trip, a young Lakota girl named White Star tragically died after falling off of a horse. The decision was made to bury her on top of Chief Long Wolf so that he would symbolically embrace this young child. During the 1990s, an English woman came across some information regarding the story and reached out to the Lakota Times to see if they could help connect her with Long Wolf's family. Eventually, both bodies were exhumed and brought back to the Pine Ridge Reservation. This is the story told by his great-granddaughter, Mary Condon.

Pastor Maynard LaVallie, an Ojibwe pastor in Red Lake, MN. shares his thoughts on the Alpha Generation project.

While retracing the Trail of Tears, we were encouraged to stop by the Cherokee Removal Memorial Park in Birchwood, TN. While we were there, our friend, Jimmy Muskrat, shared his thoughts on seeing his family's name on the list of families that had come through Blythe Fairy as part of the Indian Removal Act. This was an incredible moment and an honor to be able to record Jimmy's story. I hope that it ministers to you as well!

The Sound of Freedom has been an enormous success and we are incredibly thankful for the spotlight this film has put on human trafficking. As we continue to work with various Native American groups, we are constantly shocked by the amount of human trafficking that is taking place on tribal lands. We aim to bring hope to these areas and do what we can to shine more light on what is happening here in the United States.

While traveling through Tennessee as we retraced the Trail of Tears, we stopped at the Cherokee Memorial Park in Meigs County, TN. I don't think that we knew what we were in for, but this was an incredible place with lots of emotion. The names listed on the plaques are the heads of families. So many names. If you are in the area, you need to stop here! Learn more at www.forthrightfilms.org Music by: Lannette Calhoun - used with permision

Forthrightright Films (previously Forthright Ministries) was started in 2018 while on a mission trip to rural India among the Sora People. I had done some research to learn about them, and all I could find was the pagan beliefs, but I was with Christians - incredibly faithful Christians. I knew that their story had to be told. I asked God "Who" and He clearly said; "You." From that one experience, God has opened the door to documenting the testimonies of Christian Native Americans and the doors keep opening.

Pastor Maynard LaVallie had an incredible passion for sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ! One of Pastor Maynard's hopes was to see the completion of Transformation Acres. In 2022, Pastor Maynard left this earth after a long battle with cancer. While we mourned his passing, we also rejoiced with him as he met the ultimate goal of seeing his Father in Heaven! Just before his passing, he was able to see the shell of the church he had dreamed of. The construction of the church continues to move forward as friends and family take up this calling.
