Catalyst Movies: Bridging Faith, Film, and Community

Connecting Studios with Churches. Rebuilding Community through Story.

Welcome to Catalyst Movies. Born from a legacy of over 60 successful theatrical releases, we are dedicated to using the power of film to serve the Church. We act as the bridge between content creators and church leaders, turning the creative arts into a ministry that speaks to an individual's heart.

Whether you are looking to mobilize your congregation for a theater outing, host a community movie night in your sanctuary, or stream an exclusive event directly from your church’s website, we provide your organization with the tools you need.

Our Three Core Pillars

1. Theatrical Strategies & Studio Partnerships We work directly with studios and producers to identify films that resonate with the faith community. We don't just market movies; we create connecting events.

• For Producers: We implement grassroots initiatives to find the ideal audience for your film.
• For Churches: We help you use theatrical releases as powerful evangelistic opportunities. From coordinating bulk tickets for opening weekends to providing ministry materials, we make it easy to invite your community to an welcoming environment and give them an opportunity to encounter Love, Hope, and Truth.

2. In-Person Movie Night Licensing Bring the fun of the big screen to your sanctuary. We provide the necessary public performance licensing (and streaming links for the films) to allow churches to host legal, stress-free movie events at their own locations.

• Rebuild Community: Use film nights to gather your members and attract neighbors who might not attend a Sunday service first.
• Seamless Setup: We handle the rights management so you can focus on the fellowship.

3. Digital & Online Movie Events Pioneered during the shutdowns of 2020, we offer a robust digital solution for the modern church. Through our partnerships with BeyondSunday.com and Catalyst Movie Nights, we bring the cinema to the living room.

• Your Hub, Your Audience: Unlike other platforms, our unique streaming technology allows special movie showings to be streamed directly through your church’s own website.
• Hybrid Ministry: Perfect for engaging online members, the homebound, or extending your reach beyond physical walls. Your organization's website is your ONLINE Church Building, just as real to an online audience as your physical building and typically the first way potential visitors interact with your church body.
