      The hero does not ask the source

      Black origin, single parent family, poor grades, impulsive personality. . . Such a background is completely incompatible with the world-renowned neuro-brain surgeons. How he grew up, the movie "Blessed Hands" shows us his growth experience.

      First of all he benefits from a good mother. The illiterate mother, on rent and cleaning money, feeds her family, her two brothers, lets them read, and the child suffers and gives confidence. When he grew up, he still became the spiritual strength...

      Hammer Hoho to TV

      There is no deliberate emphasis on the power of Christ, but it is naturally explained along with the storyline, which is different from previous films.

      The brain that has been removed in half can actually grow back, and the heart can be restored to life after an hour of stoppage. This is medicine, but it is not just the role of medicine.

      The film also pointed out the direction for parents who are struggling to educate their children. Even if they are not Christians, it is...

      you can change your life

      An inspirational film, with a storyline very similar to "Wind and Rain Harvard Road". The protagonists have lived at the bottom of society since childhood and suffered discrimination from others. The difference is that Carson has a good mother. She hopes that the children will not live by doing odd jobs like herself, doing jobs that others don't want to do. When Carson's academic performance is the bottom of the class, she firmly believes her children. can get better. So she did not allow the...

      It's so arrogant! Brain Siamese babies were successfully separated, and it was still in 1987. Children who grew up in slums, under the correct guidance of their mothers, went from watching TV to reading books, with grades F to A, out of the slums, and finally became a famous pediatric neurosurgery expert in the Department of Neurosurgery at Yale University. Watching TV all day doesn't make you the person others see on TV. There is no doubt that this is an inspirational...
