From the creators of I Can Only Imagine comes a sweeping documentary that charts the unlikely rise of a musical revolution. "The Jesus Music" traces the vibrant, often controversial journey of contemporary Christian music from its humble beginnings in the 1960s Jesus Movement to its current status as a global phenomenon. Through intimate interviews and archival footage, the film explores the faith, artistry, and personal struggles of iconic artists like Amy Grant, Michael W. Smith, Kirk Franklin, and Steven Curtis Chapman, alongside groundbreaking groups such as Hillsong United. Directed by Andrew Erwin and Jon Erwin, this compelling chronicle reveals how these musicians navigated the tension between sacred message and mainstream success, creating a soundtrack for believers that would eventually resonate far beyond the church walls. It is an inspiring and honest look at the power of song to bridge divides and express a faith that continues to evolve.
