A feature film that imagines a dystopian America where Bibles are banned, Christianity is vanquished, and believers are forced into underground churches is set to release in theaters nationwide this summer. "Disciples in the Moonlight," starring Brett Varvel, will have a minimum five-day run in more than 1,000 movie theaters starting July 24.
The film's chilling yet captivating subject matter is certain to attract attention, particularly in a beleaguered culture in which religious liberty is a top concern for many. "Disciples in the Moonlight,' takes place in the not-too-distant future after the government has banned the Bible for its 'offensiveness' and replaced it with a government-approved version," a description of the film reads. "A small group of Christians are recruited to smuggle God’s Word to underground churches throughout the Midwest. With a ruthless federal agent in hot pursuit, the believers must choose between following the law or honoring and trusting God."
Varvel, who also directs the film, said the concept came to him 10 years ago, with he and his team working on the project over the past decade to help make it come to fruition. He calls the movie his "love letter to the church of Jesus Christ." "I believe this movie could be the start of a movement in our culture - to awaken people to treasure the Word of God and boldly proclaim the name of Jesus, no matter the cost," the actor said. "The time has now come to share this powerful story delivered by the most incredible cast and crew."
Varvel told CBN News "Disciples in the Moonlight" has long been a dream and passion project. His hope is that the focus remains on Jesus as people come to be entertained and inspired. “From the beginning, I wanted to lift high the Word of God as absolute authority, and something that we should hold highly as absolute truth." he said. "But, then also, the name of Jesus Christ, which is the only name under heaven given to mankind whereby we might be saved." Watch him explain.
