What do you believe?
Present-day
college freshman and devout Christian, Josh Wheaton (Shane Harper),
finds his faith challenged on his first day of Philosophy class by the
dogmatic and argumentative Professor Radisson (Kevin Sorbo). Radisson
begins class by informing students that they will need to disavow, in
writing, the existence of God on that first day, or face a failing
grade. As other students in the class begin scribbling the words “God Is
Dead” on pieces of paper as instructed, Josh find himself at a
crossroads, having to choose between his faith and his future. Josh
offers a nervous refusal, provoking an irate reaction from his smug
professor. Radisson assigns him a daunting task: if Josh will not admit
that “God Is Dead,” he must prove God’s existence by presenting
well-researched, intellectual arguments and evidence over the course of
the semester, and engage Radisson in a head-to-head debate in front of
the class. If Josh fails to convince his classmates of God’s existence,
he will fail the course and hinder his lofty academic goals. With almost
no one in his corner, Josh wonders if he can really fight for what he
believes. Can he actually prove the existence of God? Wouldn’t it just
be easier just to write “God Is Dead” and put the whole incident behind
him? GOD’S NOT DEAD weaves together multiple stories of
faith, doubt and disbelief, culminating in a dramatic call to action.
The film will educate, entertain, and inspire moviegoers to explore what
they really believe about God, igniting important conversations and
life-changing decisions.
