When you trust in God, your big dreams can become reality. Work hard, keep praying and surround yourself with like-minded believers with similar goals.
I have wanted to be a part of movies since I was a young girl and I feel incredibly blessed to have been able to act in and produce faith-based films that have a lasting impact.
My latest project, Switched, could not come at a better time. With school starting back up, it’s an important story about cyberbullying and encourages us to lead with love.
Tired of being bullied, Cassandra Evans prays that her nemesis Katie Sharp, the queen bee of social media, would know what it’s like to walk a day in her shoes. Her prayer is answered in an unexpected way when they get “Switched.”
When Cassandra Evans and Katie Sharp wake up to discover they’ve switched bodies, the two girls must learn to appreciate both the blessings and struggles the other faces on a daily basis, in school and at home. Packed with life lessons of forgiveness, perspective, encouragement and understanding, SWITCHED will help teenagers who are searching for their worth in looks and popularity to find their true identity in Christ.
SWITCHED has the power to change people’s lives and give perspective to students who are struggling with bullying and comparison in school. I am so excited to see the ways this film will positively impact the lives of young women.
This is a family-friendly film that is filled with encouraging messages of friendship, faith and the power of love.
The cast includes Miya Horcher (“The Rookie”), Madeleine Byrne (“Twenties”), John Schneider (“The Dukes of Hazzard,” “Smallville”), Vanessa Merrell (“Jane the Virgin,” Like A Boss, The Standoff), Laurine Price (“American Crime Story,” “This Close”), Denise Richards (The World Is Not Enough, Starship Troopers) and myself (Catching Faith 2).
“Switched” will be available on Digital and Video on Demand September 4 and DVD October 6!
