4th Man Cinemas has established a church theater network of over 200 churches and by the end of 2015 we are
estimated to have grown the network to 1,000. The local churches that have joined 4th Man Cinemas see the need for innovative films that promote faith, salvation, redemption through the love of Christ in an appealing way that will allow not only church members to enjoy the content they seek but invite other that need a positive message in their life.
Our main focus is to bring the product to the market that is in demand of it and enable the film makers to reach
their desire audience and have their gift make an impact in society with out major P&A cost and a desired outcome.
