Jesus Film Project

Evangelism & teaching · Founded 1979 · by Bill Bright, Cru · Orlando, Florida, United States

Jesus Film Project is an evangelistic ministry, associated with Cru, that shares the gospel through film. Its best known work is the 1979 feature film Jesus, based on the Gospel of Luke, which has been translated into many languages so viewers around the world can watch and hear the story of Jesus in their own tongue. It also produces and distributes additional gospel-centered videos and apps.

What they do

Jesus Film Project produces and distributes films about the life of Jesus, most notably the 1979 film Jesus, which follows the Gospel of Luke.

It works to translate and dub these films into many languages so that people can watch and hear the story of Jesus in their own heart language.

The ministry distributes its films through streaming, a mobile app, downloads, and partnerships with churches and missionaries who use the films in evangelism and outreach.

The Scripture behind the work

“Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,”
“But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.”
“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:”

Where the door leads

Jesus Film Project seeks to let people see and hear the story of Jesus, drawn directly from the Gospel of Luke, in a language they understand. A reader might watch the film online or through its app, or share it with a friend. Its hope is that seeing the account of Christ leads viewers to follow him.
