Sherwood Pictures’ new film “Courageous” begins with a heart-stopping chase as a man caught in a convenience store robbery races on foot after the bandits who took off in his new truck.

Once he and the local sheriff’s deputies catch up with the robbers, moviegoers learn the man was not worried about his pickup. He ran after the thieves not to prevent his property from being stolen but to protect what is in the back seat.

“Courageous” opens Friday, Sept. 30, at the Bangor Mall Cinema and around the country. It is the latest spiritual message movie from the Albany, Ga.-based film company that produced “Fireproof,” “Facing the Giants” and “Flywheel.” the rest
