Speaking of inspiration, the Bible has long been a source of rich stories that emphasize the importance of faith. The Prodigal Son has been one of the most trusted parables in the Good Book, used extensively in Westerns and war, but not from the perspective of a church background, with a plot tweak that pits former best friends against each other in so dramatic a way. Packer recognized this early as the storyline unfolded It's about really having the inner fortitude to overcome anything that's in front of you, and doing that with the help of God. It's a faith-based, inspiration-themed film, one we've wanted to do for some time. ... You see the character Boris plays of David, who's raised in the church, goes away, gets into a life of fame, money, women, wealth, drugs and sex. As he journeys back, it's the redemption that he finds, it's the hope that he finds, it's the salvation that he finds.
More Quotes from Holly Davis:
The key is it has been an unrecognized and untargeted market, ... And Tyler is the one that made them realize, hello, there's a market out there and they're missing it. They are the market that leave church on Sunday mornings and don't have a place to go. There are Christian households that are looking for something wholesome to do on a Friday or Saturday night with their family. They want to go to a theatrical production that has concepts and themes that look like and represent who they are without having to be a prostitute or a hoodlum.Holly Davis

I was trained as a neurologist, and then I went into the theater, and if you're brought up to think of yourself as a biological scientist of some sort, pretty well everything else seems frivolous by comparison.
Jonathan Miller
In America, life is introverted, self-absorbed - and so is their music.
Chris Barber
Ever since I've left, I've been doing nothing but this film and traveling, promoting and doing festivals. So the good thing is that I'm not sitting around pining over whether I made the right choice in leaving. I'm moving and grooving.
