This book introduces Jonahre-a Biblically-based, Prophetic Imagination cinematic genre. Jonahre can be implemented by following a three phase, interdisciplinary process that allows production teams to submit their content, intent, style and format to reflect a Biblical pattern of storytelling and establish an alternative consciousness with the audience. When implemented, this process creates a powerful tool for transforming culture by combining communication theory and theology into a mold for communicating Spirit-filled messages via moving-image media. The first in a trilogy of Jonahre films will be released November 2009.
