Faith Facts
- “The Chosen” and other faith-centered productions are among top nominees at the 33rd annual Movieguide Faith & Values Awards.
- Major studio and family-friendly films compete alongside stories highlighting Christian virtues and messages.
- Documentaries celebrating miracles and Christian heritage also received nominations for the Aletheia Prize.
Hollywood celebrates faith-inspired storytelling at this year’s Movieguide Awards, where both blockbuster franchises and heartfelt Christian dramas are honored. Families and believers looking for films rooted in Biblical values have reason to rejoice as inspirational works like “Sarah’s Oil” and “The Chosen: The Last Supper – Part Two” earn recognition.
“These nominees demonstrate what audiences are hungry for: stories anchored in faith, virtue and timeless values,” said Movieguide CEO Robby Baehr.
Television honors expanded to highlight series such as “House of David,” and episodes reflecting redemption, courage, and spiritual conviction. Notable performances in uplifting roles include Zachary Levi and Oscar Isaac in films bringing Christian witness to the forefront.
Documentaries like “The Case for Miracles” received special mention for exploring the reality of faith and God’s work in our world. Kevin Costner reflected on the sacred story of Christ’s birth, emphasizing the challenges faced by Mary and Joseph:
“What really stayed with me was reminding myself that this was a pregnant, unwed teenage girl, and Joseph was just as young. They were kids on this incredible journey.”
He continued,
“They had to protect their lives and protect their child, whom we proclaim as the Son of God. For them, it was a fight for life at such a young age. That really lodged the story for me.”
With these nominations, the Movieguide Awards encourage Christian families to support media that honors faith, family, and freedom. Celebrate these creative works and the heroes who bring light to screens everywhere.

African Churches Outpace Leader Training – Faithful Educators Seek God’s Guidance in Revival Potential
Faith Facts
- The Association for Christian Theological Education in Africa (ACTEA) celebrates its 50th anniversary in Bishoftu, Ethiopia, under the theme “Future Ready, Mission Faithful.”
- Rapid church growth across Africa outpaces theological training, leaving many pastors without formal education.
- ACTEA promotes accreditation, modular programs, online learning, and church partnerships to equip biblically grounded leaders.
The General Assembly unites educators from 31 countries, including Association of Evangelicals in Africa leaders, to address cultural shifts, technology, and ministry demands.
This milestone honors ACTEA’s 1976 founding to ensure evangelical institutions uphold high standards amid continent-wide revival.
“Church growth in Africa has been phenomenal, but theological education has not grown at the same pace,” Tarus said.
“The challenge is how to train enough leaders while maintaining strong theological standards.”
“The church in Africa needs leaders who are both spiritually grounded and theologically equipped,” he said.
Join in prayer for ACTEA’s vision to fortify Africa’s church with Scripture-faithful pastors advancing God’s kingdom.
