Well, simply because it directly supports the organization’s mission to form young men who lead with courage, think with clarity, and stand firmly on the truth of God’s Word.

At its core, the film—drawing from The Return of the God Hypothesis by Stephen Meyer—presents a thoughtful and accessible case that the universe is not the product of random chance, but of intentional design. This message reinforces the foundational biblical truth of Genesis 1:1 and strengthens young men in their confidence that faith in God is not blind, but deeply reasonable and grounded in evidence.

Promoting this film helps our young men reject passivity by engaging them intellectually. In a culture that often challenges or dismisses Christian belief, they are called not to retreat, but to think critically and respond with wisdom (2 Timothy 3:16–17). This film equips them to do just that—helping them articulate and defend their faith with both courage and humility.

It also calls them to embrace responsibility in the realm of leadership. As future leaders in their homes, churches, and communities, they must be prepared to stand firm in truth (1 Corinthians 16:13–14). By exploring the intersection of science, philosophy, and theology, the film strengthens their ability to lead others with conviction, demonstrating that Christ-centered faith speaks to all of life—including the deepest questions about origins and meaning.

Furthermore, the film encourages young men to live courageously in faith. Like Paul’s exhortation to Timothy (1 Timothy 6:11–12), it calls them to pursue truth, resist cultural pressure, and hold fast to what is good. In doing so, it models the kind of bold, thoughtful engagement that reflects Christ-like leadership—firm in truth, yet marked by humility (Philippians 2:3–8).

Finally, this film provides a valuable opportunity for discipleship. When paired with guided discussion and Scripture, it becomes a tool to help young men grow in wisdom, deepen their understanding of God’s creation, and more fully embrace their calling as leaders under Christ’s authority.

In summary, promoting The Story of Everything advances the mission of Building Christian Men by equipping young men to think clearly, stand firmly, and lead faithfully—restoring what was lost in Adam by living courageously in the truth and hope found in Jesus Christ.

The estimated cost of the film may be as much as $12.50 per person, though we are working to secure a group discount for 50 or more attendees.
