Films

Movies touch our hearts, and awaken our vision, and change the way we see things. They take us to other places. They open doors and minds. Movies are the memories of our lifetime. We need to keep them alive.

-Martin Scorsese

The Greatest Pulpit: Film

We owe future generations to tell the greatest stories of our day. As Robert McGee perfectly penned: “Storytelling is the most powerful way to put ideas into the world today.” Words create worlds. Story transcends all political, religious and social barriers and shifts culture.

We were born for story.

As the famous line from Chariots of Fire, “When I run, I feel God’s pleasure.” When we minister or make great films, we feel like we are making The Father smile by doing what we were created to do, energized by the synergy of each talent coming together in collaboration. We love team and love to create a family atmosphere on set, drawing out the gold of the entire cast and crew, and making great work.
