The God’s Not Dead franchise is one of the most successful in the Christian film industry. Capitalizing off the fame and promotion from Duck Dynasty, Newsboys, and several figures in Big Eva, the God’s Not Dead franchise has prioritized advancing Christian celebrity culture instead as opposed to storytelling.
The first God’s Not Dead was premised on the atheist philosophy professor who challenges a Christian student to stand up for his faith, but what was delivered consisted of seven loosely related plots and hardly any screentime dedicated to the original premise. God’s Not Dead 2 was a horrendous legal drama premised on a teacher sharing her faith/teaching about Jesus in a classroom setting defending this as a relevant history subject matter.
The trailer for what is the fourth sequel has emerged and it looks to engage on the theme of politics.
This looks like a well-meaning but cringeworthy attempt at navigating Christianity and politics.
