The Christian movie scene can be known for some real cringe-worthy writing, acting and directing. Unfortunately when you mention Christian movies many people have an instant bad taste in their mouth based on past experience.
Among the many Christian movies made though there are some that I think stand out as pretty good movies that I always enjoy watching.
Favourite Adult Christian Movies
The first “Christian” movie that I saw is still one of my favourites, and that is “The Ride“, produced by the Billy Graham Foundation.
Unfortunately the trailer looks kind of cheesy, but it’s a fun movie with some great bull riding scenes.
Another more recent movie that Tamara I and both enjoyed is Fireproof by Providence Films.
Good movie, with a great message.
Favourite Kid’s Christian Movie
Children’s movies are one area that you can often find high quality content in. Two of our family favourite Christian kid’s movie series are the Veggie Tales movies (yes, I finally caved and even enjoy them myself) and the Hermie the Common Caterpillar series.
My favourite Veggie Tales movie is The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything. Lots of fun and a very catchy tune to go with it…
Max Lucado does a great kid’s book series that has been made into a video series called Hermie & Friends. The first book and movie is Hermie A Common Caterpillar.
Both of those series are great stories for kids, and also teach good messages for the kids to learn.
Christian Movie I Want to See Next
The next Christian movie that I want to see is also by Providence Films and is their latest movie, Courageous.
What are your favourite Christian movies? What movies would you recommend for my wife and I, or for our kids?
“The Ride” is a Great film, I wish more people knew about it! It was so sad when he quit making Christian movies.
I haven’t had the chance to watch the Ride. But I also like Fireproof and Max Lucado’s Hermie and Friends. Thanks for sharing about the new movie Courageous. I’ll be looking out for it.
