🎬 New Mini-Movie Drop!

We’re excited to bring you Perfect Run, a powerful short film from our friends at Wonderhunt.co. It uses the imagery of a rodeo to explore how shame whispers lies that we’ll never measure up—even after our best efforts. But God’s voice invites us differently: come as you are. 🙌

This is a film for sermons on grace, identity, shame, or self-worth—questions that weigh heavily on many hearts today. Use it to create safe space, spark conversation 💬, and point people to the love and acceptance found in Christ.

And the best part — it’s free with your Church Visuals account.

👉 Download Perfect Run here: https://churchvisuals.com/product/perfect-run/

Feel free to tag us when you use it — we’d love to see how your church is helping people let go of shame and embrace the truth!
