This powerful story is set to impact audiences nationwide in August 2024.
The Firing Squad delves into the harrowing journey of three men who find themselves on the brink of execution. As the countdown to their deaths begins, a remarkable sequence of events unfolds, revealing the transformative power of faith and the hope that transcends earthly trials.

Known for his compelling and faith-driven narratives, Chey hopes The Firing Squad will leave a lasting impact on audiences worldwide.

Beyond mere entertainment, I pray the film will serve as a catalyst for introspection, compelling audiences to embrace the grace and love of Jesus Christ.”
Lead Cast:
Kevin Sorbo, known for his impactful roles in faith-based films, takes on the role of Pastor Lynbrook. His performance resonates with authenticity and passion.
