Based on your research and reading for the course, write a rationale/philosophy for Christian involvement in cinematic arts. For example, this paper could focus on providing guidelines/boundaries that a Christian should follow in movie making or how the church should respond to movies, etc. For example, would you feel comfortable using a secular movie to illustrate a theological truth to your audience? If so, explain why. You could also explain your motivation for movie making or discuss how far is acceptable for a Christian to go in order to make a movie. Should Christians use violence in a movie to get a point across? Is bad language or violence ever acceptable to use in movies? Whatever your answers are to these questions, make sure you explain yourself and provide a defense for your own view.
