‘The Worlds Divide’ is a triumph in independent animation
By Isaac Steward
When I first saw the trailer for “The Worlds Divide”, I’ll admit I didn’t have very high expectations. As impressive as it is for a two hour movie to be completely written, directed and animated by one person, I couldn’t see how one person could tell a story of this scale with so little help.

One day in Louisville, KY, a 15-year-old boy understood the Gospel for the first time while riding in a church van.

“Wizards Beyond Waverly Place” returns to silly spells and heartfelt lessons
By Danielle Cherry
A powerful wizard, an unsuspecting mentor and magical hilarity await viewers of “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place.” Aimed at children, this magical world deals with very adult topics of perseverance and forgiveness. This show in all its silliness and wand twirling would have been the perfect watch for my younger self.
“Wizards Beyond Waverly Place” is a spin-off sitcom of the 2007 show “Wizards of Waverly Place” following the life of the magical and ...
