Oh Stephen Baldwin.... Back in the day, 1989 to be exact, he grabbed roles in Casualties of War, Last Exit to Brooklyn, and Born on the Fourth of July. By 1994-1995, he was pretty big name, grabbing spots on Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle, The Usual Suspects, and the sexuality-bending Threesome. It's hard to believe that the same guy, some 15 years and 60 projects later, needs to be restored.
THR's Risky Business has shared this little ditty (which our own Peter Hall presented the other night): there's a new website called "Restore Stephen Baldwin." With the A-ok of his ministry President Daniel Southern, the website hopes to elicit donations from folks so that Baldwin can soar up to new heights. You see, when he became Born Again and spoke out about his beliefs, it lost him jobs and resulted in bankruptcy, because, you know, he'd no longer act in sexy,...

If you had to pick a charity to donate to right now, raise your hand if you would give your money to ... Stephen Baldwin.
Is your hand up? Yeah, we didn't think so. And perhaps that's why "The Restoration of Stephen Baldwin" campaign is still under the $100 mark since its launch four months ago.
The campaign, orchestrated by Florida-based businessman Lyn Fletcher, aims to restore Baldwin's personal wealth and Hollywood influence. Why? The Q & A section of the site says, "In March of 08 I saw Stephen speak boldly for Christ on Trumps Celebrity Apprentice Show. Then in Aug 09 I saw Stephen and God being laughed at for his bankruptcy."
Baldwin became a born-again Christian after 9/11, and the site attributes his plummeting income (down by 70%, according to the site) to around this time when he "refused roles with gratuitous sex and violence."
So in order to make Baldwin into a respected member of Hollywood circles,...

Actor Stephen Baldwin is broke. But he’s not turning to his “30 Rock” brother Alec Baldwin for help rather his fans.
So if you’re a big fan of his, your financial donation can bail him out and possibly land you a good spot in heaven.
According to Wonderwall, a Christian group website has been launched whereby fans can send their money to bail out the “Usual Suspects” star, who is up to his neck in $2.3 million worth of debt – a bill he rang up from mortgages, taxes and credit cards.
All online donations made to Restorestephenbaldwin.org will be deposited directly to Baldwin’s account. Baldwin’s spiritual guru and President of Baldwin ministries, Daniel Southern, oversee the site.
Apparently, just because Baldwin embraced Christianity, Hollywood has turned his back on him — which makes one wonder if the people behind Restore Stephen Baldwin ever saw 1996’s “Bio-Dome.” The mission...

Christians are out to "restore" Stephen Baldwin. A Christian group has come to help the financially-challenged actor, who filed for bankruptcy last year, by setting up a website and encouraging donations to be paid directly into his bank account.
Baldwin - the youngest brother of his richer and still employed brothers Alec, Daniel, and William - filed for bankruptcy last year after racking up over .3 million of debt.
And because he is a very outspoken and devout Christian, his brothers and sisters in faith, organized by Christian Lyn Fletcher, have set up the website RestoreStephenBaldwin.org, with the permission of Baldwin's spiritual adviser Daniel Southern.
The statement on the website reads: "Because of this convictions [sic] it has caused him the loss of many jobs and most recently, a highly publicized bankruptcy. He has been publicly ridiculed and insulted by people who think that he has been abandoned by God. A...

A Christian group has come to the aid of bankrupt actor Stephen Baldwin - a website has been set up to allow fans to donate money to restore his wealth.
The born-again Christian filed for bankruptcy last year after he racked up more than $2.3 million (£1.4 million) worth of debt, stemming from several mortgages, tax bills and credit card accounts.
Now a new website, set up by devoted Christian Lyn Fletcher, aims to ease Baldwin's financial burdens by encouraging public donations which will be paid directly into his bank account.
Restorestephenbaldwin.org was set up with permission from the President of Baldwin's ministries, and his spiritual adviser, Daniel Southern.
A statement posted on the site, reads, "Stephen Baldwin of the famous Baldwin Brothers Hollywood clan... is no stranger to the Hollywood life of glitz, glamour and the public eye. However, because of (his religious) convictions it has caused him the loss of many jobs and most recently, a highly publicised bankruptcy.
"He has been publicly ridiculed and insulted by people who think that he has been abandoned by God. A simple search through the internet will reveal that people not only mock Stephen, but mock God.
"Our vision is to see Stephen Baldwin publicly restored in front of millions. Stephen's platform will increase allowing him to reach even more people with the Gospel and God will get all of the glory. Publicly."...
