Of all the films I have seen, I have seen one per-cent faith-based films. It is not that many.

Since I have watched so few, did I become tired of them? The answer to this is that I was ‘raised’ mostly on the mainstream fare. For a while, I did not know Christian films existed.

Even so, I would not have easily accessed faith-based films in the mainstream because they were not there.

When I got older, I went to where I could find them.  I have watched faith based films because they are faith-affirming, they affirm faith, or Christian faith is in the affirmative. I listen to Christian music for the same reason.

Of all the other films I have watched, few manage to touch on the faith theme as faith films do.

Some things in faith films stand out more strongly than in other films I have watched. In those other films I might have to think more deeply about what they are about to find the essential theme. Those are the small challenges.

Faith-based films tend to leave me with something of a take away point. They are easier to digest.

I like most of the faith-based films I have watched except if the film’s quality sunk it or it may have been too controversial.

The best quality faith-based film I have watched is Christian documentary Gods of the New Age (1984) because it strikes me as authoritative, from content to narration. It’s compelling. Some other recommends of faith-based films I have seen are Mother Teresa (1986), Romero (1989), and Son of God (2014)
