POPULARITY
Tragedy struck and Paulette Franklin could have given up hope. Instead, she used it as a chance to “bring together the village of hope and help” from her extended family, namely her aunts, who lived both near and far. They rallied around Paulette and her boys through presence and connection. Make no mistake, single parenting was still hard work, but by clinging to her faith in God and the village around her, she and her boys thrived. Though this bond with extended family was knitted together well before Paulette's husband passed away, she had to let them in, she had to let them help. For Paulette's middle son, DeVon, and his brothers, their aunts' houses became places of refuge and connection that they still rely on to this day. DeVon and his aunts tell their compelling and encouraging story in his audiobook, It Takes a Woman, available now on Audible. Through the audiobook all of our villages are enlarged, all of their wisdom can be ours.

In this heart-warming movie review, we take a close look at a mother Christy Beam, (played by Jennifer Garner) and the struggles she faces as she tries to find a cure for her middle child's stomach disease. The film is full of heart throbbing moments of love and anguish as parents fight against time and the modern day "doctors protocol" of being told that their daughter is fine and its nothing more than "acid reflux" or a "stomach virus" as a mothers frustration builds, we see Christy Beam stand her ground to make sure her daughter doesn't get lost in translation. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/modern-middle-eastern-mentality/support
TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜http://www.filmgarantiti.it/it/articoli.php?id=255MIRACOLI DAL CIELO Miracoli dal cielo (Miracles from heaven) è la trasposizione cinematografica del testo autobiografico Miracles from heaven, scritto da Christy Beam, protagonista, insieme alla sua famiglia, di questa incredibile storia. [...]L'INCREDIBILE STORIA DELLA FAMIGLIA BEAMLa storia della famiglia Beam ha senza dubbio dell'incredibile. E quest'incredibile merita forse di essere ripensato e rielaborato personalmente, interiormente, da ciascuno, al di là della "semplice" visione del film. Detto ciò, non si può non convenire sul fatto che qualcosa di assolutamente inverosimile si sia verificato a Dallas qualche anno fa.Christy (Jennifer Garner) e Kevin Beam (Martin Henderson) conducono una vita serena, hanno tre bellissime bambine, vivono in un'atmosfera familiare armoniosa e fanno parte di una comunità religiosa [protestante] che si può dire essere la loro seconda famiglia. Questo "piccolo angolo felice" inizia però a sgretolarsi quando a una delle figlie, Annabel (Kylie Rogers), viene diagnosticato un raro disturbo digestivo che, sostiene anche il medico più accreditato, non risulta per il momento curabile. Nonostante gli innumerevoli tentativi fatti dalla madre, sembra che solo un miracolo possa salvare la vita della bambina.E, forse, qualcosa di simile c'è stato. Un giorno, infatti, mentre sta salendo su un albero del giardino insieme alle due sorelle, Annabel cade improvvisamente, sbattendo la testa. Data la violenza della caduta, i genitori e gli amici temono il peggio e pregano fortemente per la sua vita. Ma, quando la bambina si risveglierà, quello che medici e genitori avranno sotto gli occhi sarà un vero e proprio... "miracolo".FEDE COME AMORE, AMICIZIA, DONO INCONDIZIONATOMiracoli dal cielo mette in scena e indaga, senza alcuna "pretesa veritativa", i sentimenti profondi che attraversano e pervadono una famiglia che, messa duramente alla prova dalla malattia di una figlia, cerca il modo e la forza per reagire, per non mollare e continuare a credere. E lo fa in modo genuino, mostrandoci la fiducia e l'atto di fede ma anche i dubbi di una madre che, per quanto profondamente credente, non riesce, in un momento di così forte dolore e disperazione, a sentirsi vicina a ciò in cui ha sempre creduto. Una madre che, di fronte alle sofferenze della figlia, si chiede dove sia finito Dio, quel Dio buono e misericordioso che adesso accetta e permette tutto questo. Christy confessa al marito di non riuscire più a trovare conforto nella fede, di non riuscire più neanche a pregare, tanto è grande il dolore.Eppure, alla fine sarà Christy stessa a sostenere come la presenza di Dio, di qualcosa di più forte, di meno evidente ma di più profondo, ci sia spesso in tante piccole cose che rendono ogni giorno, in qualche modo, miracoloso. Tutto sta nel saperle (ac)cogliere, nel saperle vedere e nell'aprirsi ad accettarle: "Albert Einstein ha detto che ci sono due modi di vivere la vita: uno, come se niente fosse un miracolo; e l'altro, invece, come se ogni cosa fosse un miracolo. Io non stavo di certo vivendo la mia vita come se ogni cosa fosse un miracolo. E mi sbagliavo. I miracoli stanno dappertutto. I miracoli sono altruismo; a volte si manifestano nei modi più inattesi grazie a persone che attraversano la nostra vita, o grazie ad amici che ci rimangono accanto in qualunque situazione. I miracoli sono amore".È così che Miracoli dal cielo si mostra in realtà come un inno alla vita, a godere dei piccoli grandi doni che questa ci offre, mostrando tuttavia anche la concreta - poiché umana - difficoltà di continuare a credervi quando essa stessa sembra sottrarceli mettendoci alla prova.Un film di sentimenti ma anche una riflessione concreta sull'abisso che si staglia al di sotto di ogni atto di fede, di credenza, di amore, mostrandone il necessario coraggio, l'inevitabile cifra d'inconsapevolezza, di "azzardo", a tratti d'incoscienza. La fede, diceva Kierkegaard, è salto: non conosce mediazioni, logiche, razionalità. La fede è il rischio supremo, perché lascia che l'altro preceda se stessi, decida in noi di noi stessi e del nostro "destino". La fede è il rischio potenzialmente mortale di lasciarsi costituire dall'altro. Ma, senza di essa, la vita diviene mero calcolo, tentativo di controllo destinato al fallimento. Perché la fede come apertura all'altro ci costituisce, ci dà forma, e ci dà vita.Ecco allora che il messaggio di Christy si mostra proprio come un inno a quest'apertura, al rischio del sentimento, della fede in quanto amore, amicizia, dono. E Miracoli dal cielo si mostra come un film riflessivo ma non pedante, forte ma non eccessivo.SCENEGGIATURA COINVOLGENTELa sceneggiatura di Randy Brown e la regia di Patricia Riggen hanno il merito di rendere la storia vicina allo spettatore, coinvolgendolo all'interno di un labirinto emotivo che sente prossimo in quanto estremamente umano, spoglio da astrazioni o idealizzazioni poco credibili.L'assolutamente convincente interpretazione di Jennifer Garner e Martin Henderson, ma anche della piccola Kylie Rogers, sono poi il giusto passpartout per una già sollecitata adesione emotiva. Anche il ritmo del film è efficace, dando il giusto spazio sia alla parte "dinamica" che a quella più meditata e riflessiva.Una pellicola che rende dunque giustizia alla storia da cui è tratto, e che può rappresentare una vittoria per tutti, spettatore compreso.
Many parents worry about their child’s health, a specific illness, or simply the “what-if’s” when it comes to parenting. “What if my child turns away from me, what if my child flunks out of school or what if my child gets a terminal illness.” Fear is a regular part of parenting. But parenting out of fear robs parents- and their children- of the joy that they were meant to experience in life. We can overcome fear and we can get worry under control because the truth is, we have a lot less control over our children’s lives than we think we do. We will hear the extraordinary story of one mother who lived with the pain of her young daughter’s chronic illness. Her daughter lived in and out of hospitals and experienced abdominal pain daily. We will hear how this mother coped with her daughter’s life-threatening illness and then the miraculous event that changed them both. This is the story of Christy Beam. Her story became a popular movie with Jennifer Gardner called Miracles for Heaven. 0:27 – WELCOME Many parents worry about their child’s health, a specific illness, or simply “what ifs”.
