Jason co-wrote and produced the critically-acclaimed film, “Rape for Profit”, which was executive produced by Jada Pinkett Smith. It premiered in the top 3 documentaries on iTunes when it released and top 50 films overall (out of 5,000+ titles). He co-wrote and produced another feature documentary, Saved for a Reason, that can be viewed on cable providers, iTunes, Hulu, Amazon Prime and many more outlets. He is in development on a few feature films with his producing partner, Jens Jacob. Jason was brought on by Tony back in 2013 to hire and develop a new team that could tell the story of the heart of man -- he has since hired 150+ people that have all had a hand in making the film. He oversees all aspects of the filmmaking process from script development through the mass-market delivery of the film and finally to the curation of the 6 week curriculum that will eventually accompany the film.

A mayor’s backlash against a basic statement of Evangelical Christian belief signals an ominous turn in the culture wars.

Don’t ever forget that, for some folks, “separation of church and state” is a half-measure. It’s just a pit stop on the road to de-Christianizing America. It’s a temporary means to a much bigger end.

Over the weekend, I was honored to sign a document called the Nashville Statement. It’s a basic declaration of Christian orthodoxy on sexuality, sexual orientation, and sexual identity. Its 14 articles can be boiled down to a simple statement: We believe the Bible is the word of God, and the word of God declares that sexual intimacy is reserved for the lifelong union of a man and a woman in marriage. It acknowledges the reality of same-sex attraction as well as the reality of transgender self-conceptions, but denies that God sanctions same-sex sexual activity or a transgendered self-conception that is at odds with biological reality. In other words, it’s basic Christianity.

In crisis, strong men are no longer ‘toxic,’ women protect children, and children are innocent.

On Sunday, as images from Hurricane Harvey stunned the nation, one particular image stuck out for many Americans as indicative of the heroism of Texans in the face of disaster: a picture of a man in a baseball cap carefully carrying a woman through the water; the woman, in turn, holds close a baby curled up on her chest.

The picture struck a chord with many people because it seems so instinctively right: the woman protecting her child, the man protecting the woman, carrying them all through danger.

The Freedom From Religion Foundation is so upset that Senator Marco Rubio has been tweeting quotations from the Bible, they wrote him a hot letter about it.

Professing themselves to be wise, the group became fools and say Senators quoting the Bible is a “constitutional violation.”

We understand that you have been tweeting bible verses from @MarcoRubio to nearly three million followers. It appears that you began tweeting the bible in mid-May and have been doing so regularly ever since. This is not an errant bible verse or two, but more than 60 bible verses in three months. That’s enough verses to tweet the entire Book of Jude. Twice.
