If you're, like me, a film enthusiast, you're probably already aware of the International Film Database (www.imdb.com). You can find at least some information on virtually any movie ever made (except for porn; there are separate databases for that, but we won't go there.) If you're interested in a 1925 Japanese film, or one of comedian Eddie Deezen's films, it's probably listed in the IMDB.
Now, there is a database being created for Christian films named, appropriately enough, The Christian Film Database. (http://www.christianfilmdatabase.com/) "We don't sell films, we help you find them." The site makes the listed films available through a film rental program (similar to Netflix) for $7.99 per month.
The non-denominational site features Search functions and categories such as Coming Soon, Films in Theaters, Film Trailers, Browse, etc. The film categories may not be as conservative as would please the most traditional viewers but they all address issues which are currently being discussed in the Church. As the Church, we should be able to address and discuss any issue; we don't do the cause of Christ any favor by pretending the issues don't exist.
