Deadline:September 19, 2022
Do you think faith can help people overcome the often challenging realities of daily life? Submit an application for the Film your Faith Contest to dive in and explore.
With the Film your Faith Contest, pull out your phone, grab your camera gear, tap record, and show us in 2 minutes or less how the hope of faith is changing lives, relationships, and communities around you for the better. How does your faith help you maintain the hope needed to meet and overcome the challenges of our time, and what is your message to encourage others?
Hope is the earnest anticipation that comes with believing something good,the confident expectation that naturally stems from faith. We believe that faith is more than a tradition or a group of sayings that inspire for a moment and then leave you empty. Faith is a living, breathing, life-lifting, incredible thing vital to today’s culture in its many forms. The fruits of faith are still fresh today. But without hope, there is no true faith.
So tell a story of hope that makes us laugh, brings us to tears, inspires, entertains, or all of the above. Let your imagination run wild and your camera follow. You only need a phone and an idea to play.

Eligibility
- You have to be 18 years or older to enter.
- You can’t use someone else’s video or music–especially famous musicians. They really don’t like that! If you want to use someone else’s music, you need to have their written permission. There are some great sites online with “license-free” music clips that you CAN use. See more details about rights in the Official Rules.
- You have to be able to get written agreements from anyone who appears in your video (pretty much saying, “Hey, I’m okay with being shown in this video.”).
- You must be willing to give us rights to your entry submission–because if it’s really good we’ll want to share it with others!
- Videos must be appropriate–no bad language, nudity, or anything like that.
- Videos must showcase faith in a positive light.
- If your entry is chosen as a finalist (top 10 videos), you must be willing to talk to the media about your experience making your video.
