The goal of the Georgia Christian Films Association is to be an effective part of a growing movement of independent filmmakers who are working to replace Hollywood as the primary source of movie entertainment for millions of Christians around the world. This may not be as difficult as one may believe; here is why.

Hollywood is infested with Godless people who have no sense of moral direction or spiritual guidance. The result of several decades of building an organization made up almost entirely with these kinds of people is that the industry has no moral capital, no spiritual capital, and no intellectual capital. The movies that come out of Hollywood are simply lousy movies, in every respect. Nevertheless, Hollywood continues to produce them, at the rate of 2,000 movies per year. Americans love movies; if all that's available to them is junk, they'll go see junk.

However, as independent Christian filmmakers begin producing good films, films with high moral standards, films with good storylines, and most importantly, films that honor Christ, people will go see THESE films instead of the junk. Movies like "The Passion of the Christ," and "Time Changer" have proven that. If Christian filmmakers can produce 500 films a year, we can effectively take the market away from Hollywood. How can this be done? By building an organization of 2,000 independent Christian producers who can each release a film every four years.

One of our chief goals is for Georgia to deliver 200 of those independent Christian producers. Towards that end, GCFA hosts the Georgia Christian Film Festival each summer. This is an event where local Christian filmmakers can publicly show their films, and where Christians interested in all aspects of Christian filmmaking can meet and work together.

Another important goal is for GCFA to develop ties with independent sources of movie distribution, so that Georgia’s independent Christian filmmakers will have a means of delivering their films to the public.

We believe the Georgia Christian Films Association will become a society of families who devote their time, energy, and resources to redeeming our entertainment culture, by making films that honor Christ.
