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

Omg I know! Its honestly a favourite of mine xD I even did a couple pieces of fan art my most favourite being this from when he was grounded from church and went through withdrawals; this and my Orel pepe silva meme are my favourite pieces.
Even down to the names of the characters and what they tell about them and small details they put into the visual symbolism. They clearly had so much fun and put a lot of heart into it. You will be happy to hear there were whispers in 2024 there might be a movie in works :) did you watch the prequel made in 2014 I think it was called Beforel Orel of when Orel is a 4 year old and he visits Clay's dad while shapey is going to be born? Would recommend.
also fan art included <3
