A Movie for the Whole Family

Here are three things you can count on when Light of the World opens in theaters today, September 5, 2025:

1. This is an entertaining story that honors and celebrates the biblical account of Jesus’ life and ministry.

2. As we’ve seen on our social media, people are anxiously awaiting the beautiful 2D animation used to tell the story.

3. A FREE children’s ministry curriculum, which includes parents’ content for family use. All of this help your kids go deeper in their love of Jesus!

A Team of Experts

As you will see in the video below, The Salvation Poem Project—the independent, non-profit studio behind Light of the World—worked with a team of children’s ministry experts and practitioners to create a six-part kids' ministry curriculum tied into the movie. Meet the team and hear their thoughts about this movie.

If you are a fan of the 1990s golden era of 2D, hand-drawn animation, you will love this movie. Many scenes in this movie were a nostalgic nod to famous scenes etched in my mind from the 1990s. Remember the market scene in a movie set in the Middle East? Yup, a high-paced and entertaining scene in this movie brought me back to that era, quickly. Another scene reminded me of The Prince of Egypt, the way the animation was presented. Though not exactly the same, these scenes brought back memories of my childhood while presenting an animated rendition of the life of Jesus' ministry, death, resurrection, and ascension in a way like no other animated film.

I personally have been blessed to be able to see the Jesus film presented in a third world country. Watching young and old seeing the gospel presented for the first time was powerful and memorable. Since I tend to be old-fashioned and I saw that film work firsthand, if I were in that situation, that would be my go-to. That said, I can see churches all over the world using this new yet nostalgic movie in their outreaches, VBS programs, and community movie nights.

This is the first movie from Salvation Poem Project, a ministry committed to sharing Jesus with the world

Director John Schafer was the producer of the beloved program Superbook.

“It stresses faith, family and trusting in God’s plan. It's beautifully animated and entertaining.”—Movieguide

Original 13 Colonies Fact Cards (Free Printable)

These Thirteen Colonies Fact Cards were created for my kids as we studied early American history. What a pivotal time in our history! Puritans seeking religious freedom, adventurers setting out for a new land, and those in debt hoping for a fresh start—a new life. From the first colony in Virginia, until all thirteen stars on the first American flag were represented, these cards are a perfect review for your homeschoolers. Use them to drill the first thirteen colonies so your child can recite them with ease, and have them dictate the information on the cards to help them remember a small fact about each colony. Feel free to print these out and have your children write facts that they learn about each colony on the back. Go ahead and laminate them, too! Simply right-click, save, and print to use this resource in your homeschool as you study about the original thirteen colonies in America. Use the facts for dictation, copy work, or discussion in your home. Disclaimer: All co...

Truck-Themed Homeschool Chore Chart

Use this truck-themed homeschool chore chart to keep your kids on track throughout the school week. With lessons, field trips, meals, and unexpected errands filling up your week, even the simplest chore chart can help your home run more smoothly. At times, kids are excited for the new opportunity to help out around the house and do it with joy. Other times they stomp toward the trash can with anything but a good attitude. Help keep attitudes in check by using stickers, smiley faces, or positive verbal reinforcement as your child completes each task on the chart. For the child who loves lists (and the mom) this is the perfect free printable to have on hand! (Simply right-click, save, and print)

The Pencil Grip Inc. {Review}

We have found what we have been looking for in The Pencil Grip Inc .'s 24 pack of Magic Stix Washable Markers . These markers are the perfect fit for a homeschooling family such as ours. I am thrilled to tell you about our experience with them! Normally, I do not have a favorable impression of markers for several reasons. For one, as a kid, I remember markers having such a strong smell that it would give me a headache. I know some kids enjoyed the scents but it certainly was not for me. And to be honest, if I had markers like that in my house today, my kids would probably stick them up their nose or something. Another reason I have a distaste for markers is the drying out factor. As a parent of many children this is super frustrating. I finally teach the older ones to put the caps back on when they are done using their markers but then a younger one comes along and just doesn't understand. This then leads to the undue frustration of your child sitting down to...
