Christian Movies Coming in 2017

It's another year of great Christian films in 2017 which bodes well for evangelization efforts considering the setbacks experienced by Christianity these days caused primarily by persecution. It's heartening to know that talented filmmakers are taking back the artistic tool of moviemaking from the enemy and using it to win souls. 

Here are five Christian movies to look forward to this year:

Along the way, Steven meets a hitchhiker who may have answers to questions regarding his family's dilemma. Set for release on May 2 on DVD and VOD.

"Salted Christmas"

A comedy that takes place one Saturday before Christmas about a family's desire to replicate Jesus' example in the various ministries that they serve namely foster care, adoption, homeless and nursing home outreaches. Catch it in theaters on Nov. 15.

"Wild Faith"

Set in 1870s Michigan, the racially-charged film tells of the struggle of a Civil War veteran to keep his interracial family intact amid the persecution of his neighbors. No release date has been set yet.

"Orphaned Courage"
