Celebrating Family and Faith and the story of Christian music pioneers, Rebecca St. James, For King & CountryStellar faith-filled castA remarkable journey of faith documented

Celebrating Family and Faith and the story of Christian music pioneers, Rebecca St. James, For King & Country


“Unsung Hero,” the heartfelt Christian film that celebrates the power of family and faith, made a significant impact at the box office this past weekend, claiming the second spot and grossing an impressive $7.7 million during its opening weekend in theaters. The movie’s success marks a powerful testament to its inspiring story and the widespread appeal of its themes.

Directed by Richard L. Ramsey and Joel Smallbone and featuring Joel Smallbone of the Grammy-winning duo for KING + COUNTRY alongside talented actress Daisy Betts, “Unsung Hero” resonated deeply with audiences, propelling it to surpass major blockbuster films like “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.”

“Unsung Hero” follows the journey of David Smallbone (portrayed by Joel Smallbone), a music executive whose life takes a dramatic turn when his successful company collapses, leading him to move his family from Australia to the United States in pursuit of a fresh start. With resilience, faith, and their shared love for music as their guiding lights, David and his wife Helen (played by Daisy Betts) embark on a touching and inspiring quest to rebuild their lives and rediscover the power of hope amidst adversity.

Stellar faith-filled cast


The stellar cast of “Unsung Hero” includes Daisy Betts, who delivers a heartfelt performance alongside Joel Smallbone, capturing the essence of resilience and hope. Kirrilee Berger, Jonathan Jackson, Lucas Black, and Candace Cameron Bure also lend their talents to the film, adding depth and authenticity to the portrayal of the Smallbone family’s journey.

With a talented team both behind and in front of the camera, “Unsung Hero” promises to be a captivating and uplifting cinematic experience that resonates with audiences worldwide.

The film’s powerful message struck a chord with audiences of all backgrounds, resonating particularly strongly with Christian viewers seeking uplifting and meaningful entertainment. Its themes of love, perseverance, and the unbreakable bonds of family have garnered widespread praise and accolades.

A remarkable journey of faith documented


In 1991, the Smallbone family made a life-changing decision to leave Australia behind and start anew in Nashville, Tennessee. David and Helen Smallbone, along with their seven children, embarked on a journey of resilience and hope after facing the collapse of David’s music company in their homeland.

Their transition to Nashville was not without its challenges. The family grappled with financial hardships and the daunting task of rebuilding their lives in a foreign land. Yet, amidst the uncertainty, Helen’s steadfast faith and David’s unwavering determination became guiding lights for their family, inspiring them to persevere through adversity.

As they settled into their new home, the Smallbones’ story took on a remarkable trajectory. Three of their children, Joel, Luke, and Rebecca St. James, nurtured their musical talents and embraced the vibrant music scene of Nashville. Joel and Luke’s journey led them to form the acclaimed duo For King & Country, captivating audiences with their powerful performances and meaningful lyrics. Meanwhile, Rebecca St. James embarked on her own successful career as a Christian recording artist, making a profound impact with her soul-stirring music.

The Smallbone family’s resilience, faith, and unwavering love for music not only shaped their own destinies but also inspired countless others with their remarkable journey from adversity to triumph. Their story continues to resonate as a testament to the enduring power of family, faith, and the pursuit of dreams.

“Unsung Hero” made a remarkable impact at the box office, surpassing expectations and showcasing the enduring appeal of faith-based storytelling. With its heartwarming narrative and powerful performances, the film continues to draw audiences eager to experience its message of hope and resilience.

In addition to its box office success, “Unsung Hero” has received critical acclaim for its poignant storytelling, heartfelt performances, and impactful portrayal of the Smallbone family’s inspiring true story.
