But for Sam; it is not enough to shelter the LRA's intended victims. Determined to save as many as possible; he leads armed missions deep into enemy territory to retrieve kidnapped children; restoring peace to their lives and eventually his own. The explosive; real-life tale of a man who has rescued over a thousand orphans from starvation; disease and enslavement; Machine Gun Preacher also stars Michelle Monaghan and Kathy Baker.
