Four Types of Christian Films

Right now the Christian film industry is dominated by what I’ve called “Devotional” films.

These films are often produced by people promoting a conservative—even fundamentalist—and heavily right-leaning version of Christianity.

Not every film needs to do everything. And each type of film has its place.

But we need more films in the Transformational category.

Too many stop with personal piety and holiness. Which is not bad but it’s incomplete.

Not enough films show how faith turns worldly logic upside down.

Not enough Christian films show how the heavenly Kingdom confronts earthly kingdoms.

Not enough Christian films interrogate laws, policies, and institutions.

This is the work of Tisby Studios and our first production--Jesus Was a Migrant.
