About the Challenge

Bring the timeless parables of Jesus to life through animation.

Create a short animated video inspired by any parable of Jesus — from the Good Samaritan to the Prodigal Son, the Lost Sheep to the Sower. Reimagine these stories in a fresh, creative, and visually engaging way for today’s audience.

We welcome all creative approaches: cinematic, 2D, 3D, motion graphics, stylized art, experimental formats, or something wonderfully strange that somehow works.

Creators are free to use any AI tools or platforms as part of the process, including image generation, video generation, editing, voice, animation, or hybrid workflows.

We’re looking beyond technical polish. What matters most is the heart of the story: truth, emotion, meaning, creativity, and impact.

Choose a parable. Tell it well. Make it memorable.
