THE FILM

We can study God. We can talk, debate, and wrestle with who He is—or have no interest at all.But to encounter God—to experience His presence, to feel His love—that is something different.God of Love is a film about encounter. It's about what happens when a person is drawn into the presence of God, and how they respond.The story takes place at a desert monastery, where a young man sees what he’s never seen before: a man in the presence of God. And what begins as curiosity grows into something more—a direct experience of his own.What happens on screen is powerful. But what happens in seats—even more so. Our greatest hope is that audiences not only witness encounter, but they experience it themselves. That is the heart behind God of Love.God of Love will be filmed on location and in studio in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Directly. For ourselves.
