Benjamin Bernard has always wanted to be the favorite son, but his brother, Luke, is loved more, or so he perceives. After all, Luke is a soccer player and it's his father's, Daniel's, favorite sport. To cope with his anger and resentment, Benjamin becomes a mixed-martial arts fighter. After a life-changing event, one brother must now fight not only for his life, but also for his relationship with his brother, his friends, family, and God. One brother is healed physically and the other is transformed spiritually. This family film explores love, forgiveness, loss, healed relationships, and, ultimately, the realization that we are all God's Favorite.

We are all on life's journey, each starting and finishing at different times. The journey has many adventures, opportunities, and mountaintop experiences as well as valleys. The valleys, or low points, in our lives can knock the wind out of our sails, and our lives can feel like they have come to a standstill, or even a downward spiral. But there is hope in the midst of those valleys:. God is still present. This book is based on a blog composed by Luke's mother, Kathy, during a deep personal valley when her son was in a near-fatal car accident. Kathy's blog was used to inform many of Luke's progress. But Luke's family also had a lot of time to reflect, read God's Word, pray, and sing songs by his bedside. Eventually, Kathy's blog became more than a status report. It was a special time where God ministered to Luke's family through the encouragement of individuals, scriptures, songs, and poems. Through the years, people have asked to read Kathy's blog and for her to put it into a book. Here, she shares her family's story to encourage those going through a personal valley. Come share their journey.
Based on the real experiences of Luke Bernard and his physical and spiritual transformation, told through the life of two brothers. The Favorite is the story of a distanced and agitated son, hurt by what he perceives as favoritism, who vents his anger through fighting. Will he injure the very people he loves most? Or, will he find healing before it's too late?
This workbook is intended to assist readers in understanding where God stands when it comes to favoritism. This 6- week study is to help those who have been hurt learn to reconcile differences and find answers.
