| CHECK IT OUT OEFC Library News Unsung Hero DVD When David Smallbone's successful music company collapses, he moves his family from Down Under to the States, searching for a brighter future. With nothing more than their six children, their suitcases, and their love of music, David and his pregnant wife Helen set out to rebuild their lives. Based on a remarkable true story, Helen's faith stands against all odds and inspires her husband and children to hold onto theirs. With their own dreams on hold, David and Helen begin to realize the musical abilities in their children, who would go on to become two of the most successful acts in Christian music: For King & Country and Rebecca St. James. | |
