Stories from the Edges is a documentary series from the vision that Pastor and Filmmaker, Arman “Pastor Fury” Sheffey began pursuing in January of 2022. The series of short and full length feature films combines the heart for the poor that is at the core of the Unshackled Network with the storytelling power of Freedom Story Media and tell long-form and short-form stories of God’s work amongst the most marginalized and vulnerable populations in Lake County, IL and beyond.
