What does it take to bring one of the Bible’s most powerful stories to the big screen?

On this episode of the Faith Film Fan Podcast, Rick Altizer sits down with brothers Daniel and Matthew Kooman, the writers and directors of DANIEL & THE FIERY FURNACE, to go behind the scenes of the new biblical epic.

The Kooman Brothers share what it was like filming on location in India, working with hundreds of cast and crew, and tackling the massive scale of bringing ancient Babylon to life. They also open up about the role faith played throughout production, the importance of remaining faithful to Scripture, and the incredible response they’ve seen from audiences.

Plus, Daniel and Matthew reveal what could be next for the story of Daniel — including plans to continue his journey beyond the fiery furnace.

Hear the heart behind DANIEL & THE FIERY FURNACE and how the Kooman Brothers hope the film inspires audiences to return to Scripture and experience the story of Daniel in a whole new way.

🎬 DANIEL & THE FIERY FURNACE is in theaters now.

In this episode of the Faith Film Fan Podcast, Rick Altizer sits down with Bob Hartman and John Schlitt of Petra to talk about the new film BEYOND BELIEF and the band's connection to the story.

Set in the 1980s, BEYOND BELIEF follows a young Christian who is navigating faith, friendships, family, and the challenges of growing up. Petra's music plays an important role in the film, and Bob and John share what it was like to see their music and the band's story brought to life on screen.

Rick also talks with Bob and John about Petra's decades-long ministry, staying grounded in Christ, handling the pressure and praise that come with being on stage, aging as musicians, and what it means to continue using their gifts for God's purposes.

BEYOND BELIEF opens in theaters August 28.
