'Unusual Suspects' Model Christ
CBN.com –
New York, NY– The Luis Palau Association (LPA) founded
by world-renowned evangelist Luis Palau is known for their worldwide
Festivals and their impact on the youth with their action sports
Livin It DVD series. LPA is now expanding its youth outreach
into the area of network television specials.
LPA’s PalauFest Productions is producing a one-hour television
special titled Livin It: Unusual Suspects that will air
nationwide December 2-4th on WGN, i-Independent (PAX), TBN, and
scores of ABC, CBS, NBC, and WB affiliates.
The special will reveal an in-depth, cutting edge look at various
people in different walks of life and how their faith has taken
them to new levels. Viewers will see Palau, actor Stephen Baldwin,
skateboard legend Christian Hosoi, musical artist Chynna Phillips,
and other well-known personalities give compelling one-on-one
interviews, sharing stories of triumph over obstacles they have
faced in their lives.
Losing his father to an illness at age 10, Palau survived poverty
and the loss of his childhood, but through it all has become one
of the most respected and effective communicators on the planet.
Defying death threats and arson plots, Palau’s message of
hope has reached over 22 million people in 70 nations, and his
radio broadcasts in both English and Spanish are heard by millions
more on over 2,100 radio stations in 48 countries. Palau’s
teaching of faith has helped transform people and his example
of strength continues to uplift people around the world.
The youngest of the famed “Baldwin Brothers,” actor
Stephen Baldwin was known to many as the baby rebel from one of
today’s most well known family dynasties. After filming
over 65 movies in his career, Baldwin now uses his own testimony
and life lessons from his Hollywood experience to relate to and
positively encourage the youth culture. Nearly four years ago,
Baldwin teamed up with the Palau organization to birth the extreme
sports revolution called Livin It. Today the Livin
It brand - lead by the highly successful DVD series –
is making its mark in the youth culture and continues to be a
positive force. Baldwin’s relentless enthusiasm in his walk
of faith inspires everyone that crosses his path.
Christian Hosoi – referred to as the Michael Jordan of
skateboarding – is a man that has lived what many of the
world would claim a perfect life. He was at the top of his game
making big money and a huge name for himself as the best skateboarder
in the world, but fame, fortune and an eventual loss of focus
sent this revered athlete to federal prison. After faith and fervent
prayers, Hosoi was released back in the public eye from prison
after only 4 years of his 10-year sentence. He lives the life
of a freed man in more ways than one and spends his time reaching
out to the younger generation about living a life of faith.
Daughter of John and Michelle Phillips from the legendary 60’s
band “The Mamas and Papas” and a singer of the multi-Platinum-selling
pop music group “Wilson Phillips,” Chynna Phillips
has spent her life surrounded by musical success. With number
one hit songs and even the recognition by People magazine
as one of the “50 Most Beautiful People in the World,”
Phillips now has launched a new chapter by living a life of faith.
With the DC Festival with Luis Palau on the National Mall in
Washington DC as a backdrop, watch amazing stories of changed
lives as told by these individuals, their families and friends.
This dynamic TV special will premier on TV stations across America
this coming December 2-4, 2005.
