Based on the Book
From the Incubator
to the Kingdom
by Dr. Duane E. Mangum · ★ 5.0
The film is adapted from the acclaimed memoir by Dr. Duane E. Mangum — the true story of a young man's journey to fulfill his God-given purpose. From a fragile beginning at Freedmen's Hospital on November 9, 1959, weighing just 3 pounds 4 ounces, to a lifetime of military service, ministry, and the founding of Family Worship Center in Waldorf, Maryland.
It is a testament that every trial is a step for your testimony, and every pain has a purpose. Through homelessness, abuse, abandonment, and answered prayer, Dr. Mangum reveals the unbroken thread of grace that carried him from the incubator to the Kingdom.
