    What an amazing testimony of a faithful mother who understood her calling as a wife and mother she’s a trailblazer who propelled her children with her prayer and commitment into God’s destiny for their lives, and she is now eating the fruit of her labour. What a powerful testimony. 🙏🏿

    I remember meeting Helen when she was selling swag for Rebecca at New Year's Eve Christian night at Knottsberry Farm and she was so kind.

    Fantastic! The Smallbone family story, I know parts of. For Miss Helen to share from a momma's perspective, I am truly touched. I homeschooled my children, so we were together 24/7. Now as young adults, they've "left the nest." Moms always want to protect their babies. As they grow into their own lives, we pray. Prayer is a mother's Super-Power! ❤

    It is a gift to grow up in a loving 4:05 Christian home. Many do not but at the same time God is so there for those that did not experience a loving childhood and yet are his chosen children . Even though life is not easy for any Christian, having a good start is far easier as people need to heal from traumatic experiences that they never asked for but were born into, when they did not have the godly influence.
    I know the two sharing would not ever want to seem like they had it together because of their upbringing but God uses people differently because of whatever we might experience in this life. Season of healing is so much longer for those who have suffered as children and have made choices in life based in that. May there be mercy for those who have experienced a tougher upbringing . That is what Christ had and wants for all believers.

    Awesome testimony! Such a positive Super Mom! My favorite part in the movie was when Mom relented to let the kids enjoy a fort-like playground and acted out a battle scene with the victory cry of "Burn the ships"! I've always wondered where the inspiration for King and Country to write that song came from, and now I know!

    oh my gosh, what a wonderful gift to grow up with.. but being a Christian doesn't mean you don't have trials, thank you you have a wonderful testimony. I just bought your book I look forward to reading more about God's grace, redemption and family.

    My love for Rebecca & her music intensified with King & Country when I found out they were siblings & then when the boys told their story > I knew Smallbone parent's were especially 💙 special. 😉 so glad the kids helped celebrities your life to the world like this! 👍
    Rare rare ❤️ like this family shows to the 🌎. Thankyou so much for your example. I just turned 69 & and am a Longevity research nurse & getting a place in Nashville > hope to meet you soon. 😉 Blessings to you & the kids. 🫂

    Did Rebecca get invitation to the US before they moved? I’m so confused because her history said she was performing before she moved to the US and that she was invited to the US

    I wish the film would show the truth.
    Rebecca already had an album recorded in Australia and wasn’t an undiscovered talent like the films shows.
    They always make the Father look weak and unsupportive in films!
