WE'RE FUNDED! We're excited to announce the private investors partnered with us on the journey to make I'm Not Ashamed - The Rachel Joy Scott Story. 

Stay with us as we have some exciting updates in the next few weeks at IMNOTASHAMEDFILM.COM

Our goal is to produce a film titled “I’m Not Ashamed - The Rachel Joy Scott Story” – a moving story of authentic faith, radical compassion, and hope in the midst of unspeakable tragedy. We want to tell the true story of Rachel drawn directly from her writings and the testimonies from her family and friends.

On April 20, 2016 we will release a full length feature film in theaters and churches across America. That day is the 17th anniversary of Columbine and it will be the story of a 17 year old girl who came to a place in her life where she was unashamed of her faith in Christ. She was not ashamed to tell others about Jesus.

On April 20, 1999, two teenagers, armed with guns and homemade bombs walked onto the campus of Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado and began what would turn into one of the most horrific mass murders in American history.

The first victim to die that day was a 17-year-old girl named Rachel Joy Scott.

Rachel was a Christian - a “Jesus freak” to her fellow classmates. Her outspoken status as a witness for Christ gave her an unfortunate distinction: of the 13 victims that day, her name was the only one the killers had talked about in their murderous preparation – she was targeted because of her faith.

The nation was rocked by this tragedy. The outpouring of support for the families was astounding. CNN televised Rachel's funeral on April 24. It became CNN's most viewed event, even more than Princess Diana's funeral. America mourned with the victim's families.

But that is not the end of Rachel's story. After the funeral, students began to come forward sharing stories of Rachel's impact on their lives. They were the bullied and marginalized students of the school. Some were goths, some atheists and some had disabilities. The only thing they had in common is Rachel. She was their friend and she loved them and talked with them when no one else would.

After a few weeks, Rachel's family received the backpack she wore to school that day after it was cleared as evidence. Among the bullet holed contents were some of Rachel's writings.

The words filling the pages of her writings were a window into the life of an authentic young girl who talked with God about her struggles with acceptance, dating, partying and family. The writings showed a teenage girl who walked with Jesus. A deeper look at Rachel’s writings show a girl who the Lord was preparing to die.

Rachel was not always a martyr. She was very much a teenager with flaws and faults, like any other, who struggled with her faith and with the difficulty of being a Christian in today’s society. She's not a symbol. She was a daughter, a sister and a friend.

WE HAVE TO TELL HER STORY - BUT WE NEED YOUR HELP

“I’m Not Ashamed” is as much a chronicle of her journey to know and love God as it is a story of her last day on Earth – a story that will encourage and inspire others to follow in her steps.

We want others to not be ashamed of their faith. We want to use the story of Rachel and her journey to show others what it means follow Jesus. We want to introduce Rachel to you as a real person, someone just like you who had struggles and triumphs. We want to inspire people to embrace God and love Him and others as she did – and to give them an inspiring story to help them in their own journeys.

With your help, this movie can take our nation like wildfire and put His name on every tongue and every heart.

Rachel once traced a picture of her hand and wrote, “These hands will some day touch millions of people's hearts.”  Help us make her dream come true!
