Storyline

Prepare to be enveloped by Devoted Heart, a soul-stirring modern Nativity written by Bill Myers and directed by Billy Dickson, where God's boundless love radiates through the tender bond between Joe Shepherd and Mary McDermott, as they embrace a divine calling-posing the profound "What if? What if Jesus came today? How would that story unfold?" Feel the warmth of divine compassion ignite in a snowy small-town bar, where Joe's anguish over Mary's mysterious pregnancy transforms into a profound, abstract dream of God's embrace, revealing the Savior's arrival as a radiant gift of love for all His people, vividly echoing scripture with migrant workers as humble shepherds drawn by celestial light, suited figures as wise men seeking the newborn King, and Charlie's dying faith mirroring Simeon's blessed peace-where, like the aged prophet cradling the infant Messiah and declaring, "Sovereign Lord, now let your servant die in peace, as you have promised. I have seen your salvation," Charlie beholds the child's glory and finds eternal rest amid prophecies of light for the nations and a sword piercing the soul. This holiday season, witness a miraculous testament to God's love for one another and His people, as their journey blazes with biblical echoes- the sacred birth in a storm-ravaged shed echoing Bethlehem's manger, the perilous flight to Mexico mirroring Mary and Joseph's escape to Egypt, and Mary's triumphant spirit channeling the Magnificat's exaltation, -igniting unity and hope that will touch every heart.

Fun Facts

The entire film was produced through a Georgia high-school film program—students built sets, slung sandbags, and even wrangled the live newborn used in the manger scene. Faculty joke it’s the largest homework assignment ever assigned.
