Faith-Based Movies That Inspire: 4 Modern Parables Worth Sharing
In a world full of noise, faith-based movies provide a powerful way to spark conversation, inspire belief, and deepen understanding. At The New Parables, we believe that storytelling—like the parables Jesus told—still holds the power to teach, challenge, and transform lives.
That’s why we’ve created four original Christian short films, each designed for youth groups, campus ministries, and small group settings. These aren’t just Christian stories—they’re modern parables that connect with today’s challenges while pointing toward timeless truth.
1. FOXHOLE
A gripping short film about friendship, fear, and standing firm when the pressure is on. Perfect for discussing courage, peer influence, and faith under fire.

2. TAG TEAM
Two brothers. One room. One unforgettable wrestling match. This Christian short film uses humor and sibling rivalry to explore grace, forgiveness, and reconciliation.
Great for small groups looking to tackle real family dynamics with a biblical lens.
3. REDEMPTION
Set in a 1940s courtroom, this powerful Christian movie illustrates mercy, justice, and the power of undeserved grace.
Use this story to guide deep discussions about the gospel and our need for a Savior.
4. RAVAGED ROAD
A gritty, post-apocalyptic parable where two factions battle for paradise on a road paved with choices. This Christian short film is ideal for youth wrestling with identity, direction, and faith in a broken world.
Perfect for FCA, small groups, or campus ministries looking for high-impact visuals with gospel-centered meaning.
Why These Parables Matter
Like the stories Jesus told, each of these modern parables is meant to be unpacked in community. When you pair film with biblical discussion, something powerful happens—students start asking better questions, opening their hearts, and connecting the gospel to real life.
