The Battle for Christianity Trailers

Professor Robert Beckford looks at how immigration, radical social action, conservative morality and charismatic worship are all transforming the face of the faith, and asks what that might mean for the future in an increasingly secular society. Some academics are warning that popular churches who take a firm line on issues like gay marriage, abortion and euthanasia are pushing Christianity farther away from the attitudes of mainstream society. Others believe that the fervour of charismatic faith is attracting large numbers, but ignoring a quiet exodus out of the back door. Robert Beckford speaks to church leaders in the UK, including the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, about how they see the future. This revealing film gets to the heart of what’s changing within Christianity in the UK. It will show how the faithful are kicking back against the steady decline in church attendance, and provide evidence of a more committed, but potentially divided, future.

Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.
Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
