Christian Cinema review and giveaway!

For the last year or so we've been using ChristianCinema.com and I'm so excited to get to review their service and give away two free 4 month memberships!

Like other similar services out there you make up your rental list on their web site, and they send you your DVDs through the mail. No late fees, yay! The difference is that ALL of their movies are family friendly/Christian movies (some are not suitable for younger viewers due to subject matter, but for maturity reasons not because of obscenities etc.)!

There have been many times that we've heard about a certain movie that we would love to see, but it seemed that the only way to watch it was to purchase it since it was not widely available. We don't buy a lot of movies because of the expense and because it results in more "stuff" in the house, so we were missing out on some great family movies and some wonderful documentaries etc. Then we started using ChristianCinema.com's rental service (they sell DVD's too).

One aspect that we like is that when you mail in your DVD, you can immediately mark it as mailed on their web site, and they will send your next DVD right out, so you get your next movie sooner!

Some of our favorite movies that can be found on ChristianCinema.com are...

Runner from Ravenshead - "little rascals meet Indiana Jones" this sweet movie is made by a family with five children (but this is no home video!), and they ONLY use their 5 kids as the actors! We've mentioned this movie before. Rob and I enjoyed the movie and thought it was sweet. Our kids LOVED it! (Rob was also impressed by the high production value.) This film received the Audience Choice Award at the 2010 San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival.


The Widow's Might- A great movie about standing up for others, and for what is right. This film received the Best of Festival Award at the 2009 San Antonio Independent Christian Film Festival.

Torchlighter series - a great kid's cartoon series of great men and women of the faith. We've seen a couple of them and look forward to seeing more!

Now for your chance to win one of two free four month memberships (at the MV2 level which is 2 DVDs out at a time!).

  8. I love the idea of this dvd service. I too love the Christian films and wish that I could own them, but that is not financially feasible. I am going to have to look into this more. Thank you for the recommendation and this giveaway.

  9. Just visited their site. I like the monthly price. I am wondering how often they add new movies. A nice selection of movies, just wondering how often new movies would be added.
