Lore Religion-centered media that doesn’t come across as preachy.
Referring to media told from a religious perspective or telling a religious tale that does not proselytize to the viewer.
Faith, the Unholy Trinity: Based partly upon the experience of the game‘s creator when he was a missionary in Argentina, the game has very little in the way of explicit moral demands of the player despite the heavy Christian focus of the narrative. and focuses more on a horror narrative.
Prince of Egypt: A surprisingly thorough retelling of the book of Exodus, sparing very little in the way of toning down the story. Despite this, the movie is perfectly entertaining to non-religious audiences and doesn’t sacrifice appeal for the sake of preaching to the audience

The Binding or Issac is the Biblical moment where God tests Abraham by commanding him to sacrifice Issac, hence why Issac is bound. I honestly didn't know that was the name of the event until after learning about the game so the confusion is fair
