Short Summary
In a sea of dull and predicable cliche Christian movies that try to tell a story that somehow points to Jesus, Before We Begin distinguishes itself amongst the rest and captures a glimpse of what it really feels to be a young adult Christian in this self-centered world. My hope is to tell real, and unfiltered faith-based stories of the realities, both ups and downs, of Christianity throughout the eyes of young adults.
I have cast and crew ready to go. Ultimately my goal is to submit this to Angel Studios, and have it become a torch, which is a program where it could be voted to become a feature length film, or show.
The Impact
College is often a pivotal point in a young person’s life. It will help shape their beliefs about themselves and the world for years to come. The question is how will young adult Christians navigate life in such a discovery driven time of their lives. How will young adults respond to the Truth that is at such odds with their worldview? Telling these stories in a real authentic way is a gap in the faith-based market and Before We Begin is the spark to set this new trail ablaze.
Risks & Challenges
God has called me out of full-time ministry which has made a way to for me to dedicate the time and effort to create this film. I have not plan b, this is it! As a husband, and father of three under three, this is an enormous sacrifice for my wife and I to pioneer something we have never done before. It's costing me everything but I'm confident this is what God is calling me to.
How You Can Help
In order to produce this film, I will need $12,000 to cover all the expenses including the cost to enter it into the Angel Studios torch program. This not only includes Cast and crew, and equipment expenses. but also the cost of industry leading post-production color grading and sound mixing.

No worries, I get it! If you are not able to support financially I would greatly appreciate you spreading the word, becoming a voice for this project and be a beacon on light so others become aware of it. One share, tagging friends and family can go a long way.
