Glendale, AZ – Arizona Christian University will host a public screening for a new, groundbreaking documentary from Focus on the Family and the Colson Center called Truth Rising on Wednesday, Feb. 11. The 90-minute documentary will be followed by a live audience question and answer session with cast member and President of the Colson Center John Stonestreet and Arizona Christian University President Len Munsil.
The public screening will be held on Wednesday, February 11 at 6:30 p.m. at Arizona Christian University’s Rhode Auditorium, located in the main administration building at 1 W. Firestorm Way, Glendale, AZ 85306.
“ACU is thrilled to host this significant event,” said ACU President Len Munsil. “With our vision to prepare students who will ‘transform culture with truth,’ we believe this timely documentary will remind us that Western Civilization is based on the truths of Scripture. This can help spark a renewed commitment to promoting human flourishing and restoring a unified culture with people committed to living according to these “self-evident” truths.”
“Authentic Christian higher education grounds students in foundational Christian convictions and equips them to live as agents of restoration,” said John Stonestreet, president of the Colson Center. “I’m grateful for President Len Munsil’s leadership in preparing students at Arizona Christian University to understand and live the truth, and I look forward to engaging in a thoughtful discussion about what it means to live a courageous Christian life at the Truth Rising screening.”
Truth Rising explores the decline of Western civilization and takes an unflinching look at the confusion surrounding today’s most pressing issues through the lens of otherwise ordinary Christians who have courageously taken a stand for biblical truth. The film features the inspirational stories of several faithful believers, including:
- Chloe Cole, detransitioned child protection activist
- Jack Phillips, Owner of Masterpiece Cakeshop
- Seth Dillon, CEO of The Babylon Bee
- Katy Faust, Founder of Them Before Us
- Winston Marshall, former banjoist for Mumford and Sons
- Ayaan Hirsi Ali, founder of AHA Foundation & female human rights activist
Truth Rising also includes conversations about the state of our civilization with prominent speakers from all over the world — both Christian and secular, seasoned leaders and bold advocates — each offering honest, thought-provoking insight into how we can live with truth and courage in a world desperate for clarity.
