The Problem With Christian Films
Certainly, there are ways to make honest, profound Christian films. What if Persecuted was about a Reverend, formerly powerful in the Republican party, coming to terms with his lessening influence? What if God Is Not Dead was about a Christian wrestling with the fact that he knew atheists smarter and more ethical than himself? Suddenly we would have a chance to say something vulnerable, honest, and profound. But as long as Christian films are motivated by a desire to trap people into hearing a gospel presentation, or as a consolation for losing the culture war, they should not make the final cut.
