What is it to be a man? Hope at Home Film Festival - Hacksaw Ridge - Discussion with Al Stewart

Moderator: Reel Dialogue's Russ Matthews

Film: Hacksaw Ridge

What is it to be a man? Hacksaw Ridge is a fantastic film that depicts the conviction, faith and manhood of Desmond Doss played by Andrew Garfield.

During the Hope at Home Film Festival, Russ Matthews from Reel Dialogue will be having a chat with a man who can talk into all of these subjects and more. Al Stewart is the right man for this discussion. He will be able to answer your questions about commitment to his Christian faith and what it means to be a man. A forum for men and women who are captivated by the film and may want to know what compelled the soldier to live out his faith.
