Show Me the Father’s Alex Kendrick Talks to Plugged In

Pop quiz: What’s your favorite Christian movie?

For many fans of this genre, I have a hunch that one of the films made by brothers Alex and Stephen Kendrick might well be your answer. It’s quite a list: Flywheel, Facing the Giants, Fireproof, Courageous, War Room and Overcomer.

With each of these movies, the Brothers Kendrick have continued to hone their craft and characterization in the stories they tell, helping audiences to connect deeply and emotionally to key biblical themes.

Now the Kendrick Brothers are back with another production. But this one is a bit different. Show Me the Father, which lands in theaters next Friday, is a documentary instead of a feature film. It features five core stories (and many other illustrations along the way) about what makes a man a good father.

We’ll be posting our official review of the film next week. But we also had a chance to talk with Alex Kendrick about the film recently. If you’ve ever watched and enjoyed one of the movies he and his brother have crafted, you’ll enjoy my conversation with him about Show Me the Father.
