July 27, 2011 by Jim Spickard.
Film Info: “Onward Christian Soldiers” (1989) – 52 minutes
Distributor: Formerly Icarus Films. Currently ??????????
Summary: Portrays inroads made into traditionally Catholic Latin American communities by evangelical Protestant preaching through the mass media.
Film notice taken (with permission) from the “Teaching Resources” list in Meredith McGuire’s Religion: The Social Context, third edition. Her 5th edition (available from Waveland Press: see www.religionthesocialcontext.com) does not contain the resource list. I have only traced some of these films to current distributors. Please post updated information about them, if you have it. – JS
