Lori Longfritz shares the extraordinary story of her brother John Chapman, a US Air Force Combat Controller who was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor 16 years after being left for dead on an Afghan mountaintop where he continued fighting alone for over an hour.

• John Chapman was a compassionate, brave individual from childhood who stood up to bullies and showed kindness to everyone
• The battle on Takur Ghar Mountain was part of a larger operation where Chapman was embedded with a SEAL Team Six unit
• After being wounded and mistakenly reported as dead, Chapman regained consciousness and continued fighting alone
• Multiple attempts by the family to have Chapman's Air Force Cross upgraded were blocked for years
• Video evidence from a CIA drone and AC-130 gunship ultimately proved Chapman's continued fight after being left behind
• Chapman was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor in 2018, making him the first enlisted Air Force recipient since Vietnam
• Lori describes institutional resistance and attempts to suppress the truth about what happened on the mountain
• The First There Foundation now supports combat controllers and other military/first responders with mental health resources

Visit FirstThere.org to learn more about the foundation's work supporting military personnel, law enforcement and first responders. Both books about John Chapman's story are available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Entertainment is discipling our children more effectively than church or even parents, creating an urgent need for parents to reclaim storytelling and media consumption in their homes. The real battle for kids' hearts and minds happens through the stories they absorb daily, not just in classrooms or on social media.

• Less than 15% of media worldwide is made for kids, with an even smaller percentage containing pro-God messages
• Today's children get 60% of their media from YouTube rather than traditional channels
• Tech companies design content specifically to capture children's attention through tactics like seven-second scene changes
• Parents can establish clear boundaries around device usage with designated charging stations and screen-free times
• Reframe technology as a tool for creation rather than consumption by starting family projects that use tech for good
• "Aria Appleton" film offers families entertainment that addresses relevant issues like adoption and bullying from a faith perspective
• Setting reasonable rules is more effective than creating overly strict boundaries that inspire rebellion
• Parents working long hours can be more intentional about discussing media with children during the time they do have together
• Consider periodic "tech detoxes" to reset family patterns and assess dependency levels

Check out "Aria Appleton" on Amazon Prime Video and find the Parent/Leader's Guide at givesendgo.com/ariaappleton to help facilitate meaningful family discussions about the film's themes.
