Elijah Davidson talks about finding the Spirit of God in film, craft, and the arts, and his process of writing a Christian guide to the greatest films of all time. He wrestles through questions that films invoke in all of us, he shares how to read film, how film applies to our faith and life, and more.

Elijah Davidson is a writer living in California. He is the author of How to Talk to a Movie: Movie-Watching as a Spiritual Exercise, the creator of the Icons of Cinema series of brief texts on prominent filmmakers, a contributor to God in the Movies: A Guide for Exploring Four Decades of Film, and the co-editor of the Reel Spirituality Monograph Series with Cascade Press.

Since 2011, he has co-directed Fuller Theological Seminary’s Brehm Film institute of faith and film (formerly Reel Spirituality). In addition to publishing books about movies for Christians, he helps plan Brehm Film's screening series, writes for and edits Brehm Film’s website, Deep Focus, and participates in all other activities of the institute.

Alongside his vocational work as a writer and supporter of the cinematic arts, he works as the Director of Content Strategy for Fuller Seminary's Communication & Branding team. He graduated from Fuller Seminary in 2014 with a Master's of Arts in Intercultural Studies, focusing on American popular culture, theology, and the arts.

He is married, has two children, and a dog. If he is not writing or working, he is most likely camping, weather-permitting or not.
