There are extraordinary moral lessons hidden in the constant stream of today’s current events, and these lessons are golden teaching opportunities. Our Faith in Action, a teen-oriented magazine published by Circle Media, does just that.

In clear, simple language adapted to teenagers, Our Faith in Action presents the facts of a single current event and walks the reader through the principles at work. Each well-illustrated issue teaches teens moral reasoning skills in a concrete, interesting, and accessible way, using a hot topic as the “hook”.

This Month: Profiling Bella

For teens who dream of making a difference in Hollywood but wonder if it is possible, Our Faith in Action’s latest issue is an inspiring read. The October edition tells the story of a Catholic director (Alejandro Monteverde), lead actor (Eduardo Verastegui), and film business professional (Leo Severino) who dreamed of making movies that would express truth, goodness, and values in an attractive way. To make their dream a reality, they banded together with an entrepreneur (Sean Wolfington) and founded a pro-values film company: Metanoia Films. The unexpected film festival triumph of their first movie, Bella, is living proof that dreams can become reality with a good dose of faith, talent, and hard work.

Since Bella is coming out in theaters on October 26th, this recent issue of Our Faith in Action would be an excellent tool for a small group discussion before or after the film. It could also be a great way to encourage kids to dream about using their media talents for Christ.
