Lionsgate presents:
The Way Home
Randy Simpkins, played by Dean Cain, loves his family, but he’s lost focus on what is truly important.

The outpouring of the community as a whole for this family was inspiring. You could really see the Lord’s hand on all that was happening.
The actors did a wonderful job portraying the characters in the movie. While the movie crept along at some points, I felt that the storyline was good. It’s an em

This sounds like a great movie. We just saw the previews at my in-laws house and have wanted to see it.

We used to have family night once a week, but that’s fallen by the wayside between the baby and move. With winter weather coming, it’s a great time to get back to it.

We have family night at least once per week. Sometimes more. It’s a little harder now with dad in school on nights, but if you count the nights that the rest are home (minus dad) we have family nights 3 times per week.

WE try to watch a family movie about every other week, though sometimes it’s more often. Recently, we’ve had family movies at least once a week, since we were trying out Netflix.
