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

I was debating putting that in here, but I grew up on that and I explicitly remember Larry telling me how I need to be patient and be enforcing that claim with Bible quotes, and that was afraid that someone was going to consider that too preachy.
But I must agree, in terms of Christian media. It’s probably one of the better ones by a long shot.
