10 Groundbreaking Christian Science Fiction Films

10 Groundbreaking Christian Science Fiction Films

By Movieguide® Contributor

The science fiction genre may not seem synonymous with faith-based content, but several speculative films have a biblical worldview. From time travel to dystopian settings, these movies use fiction-based depictions of science to glorify the Lord. Whether it’s the story of children entering a new world through a wardrobe or a man being mysteriously transported to the past, these movies come with imagination and moral messages. Use caution for younger children and sensitive teens as many of the films contain content that may be frightening.
