Filmmakers Reveal Their Goal and Purpose for ‘Light of the World’

Audio By Carbonatix

For every film produced, there must be (or should be) a reason for it to exist. Filmmakers, with their final product, are typically trying to convey a message and get a point across to their intended audience. A film, a book or even a television show that isn't trying to express a specific message or idea is often unreadable and unwatchable, some of the worst you'll encounter.

Filmmakers without a driving, unifying force or idea behind their work will likely fail. Something must motivate them to keep going during those hardships and difficulties that often come when making a movie. The "Light of The World" filmmakers shared what motivated them to make the animated film and what they hope to achieve with this project.

"This film should already exist, and it didn't," Brennan McPherson, "Light of The World" producer, said. "And so, we felt that it was a calling on our lives to make it happen. God's blessed it and has made it happen. It's an extremely powerful tool to share the gospel with the world."

Matt McPherson, an executive producer of "Light of the World," mentioned that he heard God's voice tell him that he would eventually make a film about Jesus. From that point, Matt said doors started opening to make that possible.

"We're really focused on not only leading people to Christ, but to disciple them and encourage them to get involved in a local church," Matt said.
