Although you can encounter God in all sorts of films, below is the list of films we as a group have so far watched. For many of them, you can also access our short study guide. Gathering together material from the web and other sources, these just give a brief outline of the film and some of the themes you might discover there. For more information on the film itself, follow the links to “The Internet Movie Database” or to other occasional articles on the web.

There are, of course, many other films you could watch. Some general thoughts on watching a film can be found here. But, whatever you do, be adventurous! Enjoy yourself! And just take the time to share a film with God.

A list of all the films we have watched, along with recent study guides, can be found here:
