Family-focused, pro-faith programming to have more prominent place at Kennedy Center

The Kennedy Center seeks to renew its family -focused programs, including by providing more religious content that has often left outside the center’s agenda.

To start the new focus, the Kennedy Center will hold a free family show for the new Angel Studios movie, “The King of Kings”, which wanders in the life of Jesus from the point of view of a young boy, discovering throughout the film the transformative power of faith.

The “King of Kings” show, which will be held on Sunday, June 1, is a shift to providing more supportive content of Christianity at the Kennedy Center.

According to the center, the only modern modern production that can be considered “Christian” is a 2022 show for “Jesus Christ the star”, a musician of the early seventies that some critics considered (at least at first, such as the late priest Billy Graham).

“When I saw the advertising campaign for” King of Kings “, I knew immediately that we needed to reach the Kennedy Center.” “Then by chance, I was asked to be in a committee with the CEO of Angel Studios, so I moved it. This is a family friendly programming that we will do in the future.”

The Kennedy Center indicated that the special offer for “King of Kings” will celebrate the first place that has focused on Jesus since “Jesus Christ the star.” The place hosted the singers of the Bible and classic offers by composers such as Mozart and Beethoven, some of which were originally assigned to the church music.

“The king of kings has become the most animated animation movie based on religions in history,” said David Fischer, head of business and business affairs at Angel Studios. “But its greatest achievement in the hearts that are moved – and displayed in the Kennedy Center is a symbol of the extent of the speed of truth and light.”
