From Chickfila Training Videos to Top Box Office Hits: Meet The Kendrick Brothers

Long before Kirk Cameron played Captain Caleb Holt in Fireproof. Before Karen Abercrombie encouraged people to find happiness through prayer as Miss Clara in War Room. And even before Grant Taylor, played by Alex Kendrick, prepares to lose his job as a high school football coach in Facing the Giants, the Kendrick Brothers were teaching Chick-fil-A workers how to be excellent at their jobs.

Back in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Alex and Stephen Kendrick spent a few years working at the Cumberland Mall Chickfila in Cumberland, Georgia. And when the corporate office decided to pay a visit to shoot some training videos, the brothers both landed parts in the films. Stephen Kendrick reminisces with hosts Alison and Jim about his acting debut.
