An initiative of faith and film at the Brehm Center at Fuller Theological Seminary. We want to simultaneously raise visual and spiritual literacy.
Reel Spirituality seeks through education to strengthen how people create, watch, and process moving images. Reel Spirituality serves as a think tank, creating opportunities for serious conversation between leaders in faith and film. It is image-driven, educationally focused, and theologically-centered. It connects filmmakers, Christian leaders, and scholars for mutual exploration of ultimate questions found in our culture's primary texts, film and television.
