5 New Christian Movies in 2022

5 New Christian Movies in 2022 For Christian movie buffs, 2022 promises to be a busy year.

Here are five new christian movies 2022 you'll want to watch :

1. Tyson Run (March 4) A 15-year-old autistic boy attending public school for the first time tries to win his father's approval by running his first marathon. To achieve his goal, he will be trained by a champion marathon runner.

The film stars Major Dodson, an autistic actor himself.

“Tyson is a great guy. He has goals and aspirations. He just acts differently," Dodson said in the short for the film. “He takes care of his friends, he takes care of his family. He wants to impress his father. For the most part, he's just an ordinary kid living with an ordinary family and trying to do something big."

Like the film's protagonist, Dodson said that as he aged, his social skills also improved.

“If you had talked to me, a six-year-old child,” he said, referring to an interview, “this would not have happened.”

Dodson's mom, Jen Dodson, said the game "really turned Major into the person he is now."

"It was perfectly safe for him to get the script and act out those emotions," she said.

2. Indestructible Boy (TBC) An autistic boy with a rare bone disease inspires everyone around him with his unwavering faith and wonderful outlook on life.

The film is based on real events and the book of the same name. This is the latest release from Kingdom Story Company, the same studio behind American Underdog, I Still Believe and I Can Only Imagine. ("I Still Believe" was the #1 movie in America when it premiered in 2020.)

It starred several famous Hollywood names, including Zachary Levi, Amy Acker, Meganne Fahey and Patricia Heaton. John Gunn (The Case of Christ) directed it, and John Ervin, Andrew Ervin and Kevin Downes produced it.

Andrew Ervin told Crosswalk that the films he and his brother are making are aimed at both the Christian community and the secular market.

“The way we tell stories is an introduction to the idea of the gospel—the good news that we all cherish about redemption,” he said. “And if we can take a product that connects our audience but provides a platform to evoke fear of missing out, then that creates an opportunity to share that message outside of church walls. And so we're very, very passionate about it. And I think that's why we're trying to find things that are broadly appealing, that have mass appeal [and] that have mainstream actors in order to earn the right to be heard."

Rated PG for strong feature material, alcohol abuse, profanity, and some violence.

3. Case of the sky (April 4-6) Christian apologist Lee Strobel explores the evidence for heaven in this investigative documentary based on the book of the same name. The story of Strobel's conversion was the subject of the 2017 film The Case for Christ.

Strobel said he came up with the idea for the book after a near-death experience.

“I almost died a few years ago,” Strobel told Got Questions Ministries. “My wife found me unconscious on the bedroom floor. She called an ambulance. I woke up in the emergency room. The doctor looked at me and said: "You are one step away from coma, two steps away from death." .' And so I lingered, as if hovering over this blurred line between life and death, for quite a long time until the doctors could save my life.

Strobel called it a "clarifying experience".

“You start to wonder with great curiosity: what really happens when we close our eyes for the last time in this world?”

4. Mulligan (April 18-19) A businessman whose life is falling apart gets the inspiration he needs by playing in a golf tournament.

This inspiration comes from a mysterious character known as the "Old Pro" played by Pat Boone. The film is based on the book of the same name. It stars Eric Close, Tanya Christiansen and Charmin Lee. Boone told Crosswalk that the cast and crew prayed on set every day. He wants it to affect those who don't go to church.

“We're trying to reach them in a way that we think is very enjoyable and interesting and that they can understand,” Boon told Crosswalk. “We have very high hopes. We know there's a God in it — in the way He's brought it all together, all of us together, all of the actors, the crew, the director, the producer, everyone in it."

The theme, according to Boone, is simple: everyone needs a second chance and forgiveness.

5. Sign of life (autumn) This is the latest feature film from Alex and Stephen Kendrick, Georgia-based filmmakers who have a string of religious hits including War Room, Victorious, Face the Giants, Courageous and Fireproof. (“War Room” was America’s No. 1 movie in the second weekend of 2015; the 2021 Kendricks’ film Show Me the Father is one of the best documentaries you’ll ever watch.)

The title of their newest film, Lifemark, was recently revealed to Crosswalk. It will focus on adoption and starring Kirk Cameron.

It was filmed in March and April 2021 in Columbus, Georgia during the pandemic.

Alex Kendrick told Crosswalk that the film was made "quietly" with no publicity.

“First of all, we didn’t want to interfere with the development of Show Me the Father and Legacy of Man,” he said of the two film released in 2021.

“But also, as we've learned in the past, if we announce a film and people know we're filming, people just show up on our set. And sometimes they come from afar,” he said, laughing at the predicament. “We learned to shoot inspirational movies 2022 quietly and then talk about it after the fact.”

Columbus, he says, "has been a real blessing to us."

“There are a lot of connections that we have been able to make,” he said.
