About Us

Gospel Films Library is a free online curation of over 350 films that chronicle how Biblical history and Christian ideology were presented to 20th century audiences through the medium of film and television.

There are currently 20 categories on the site including New and Old Testament films, modern era stories, movies, documentaries and biographies, along with special collections like Ken Anderson and Rolf Forsberg films. Three distinguished TV series featured in the library include: "The Life of St. Paul," "The Living Christ" and “The Living Bible” series.

Gospel Films Archive began in 2012 as a collaboration between three friends—who also happened to be film preservation professionals: Bob Campbell, Ron Hall, and Derek Meyers. Bob was co-creator/producer of "Matinee at the Bijou" (1980-88) one of PBS's most popular series. Bob's passion today has shifted from collecting secular films to tracking down vintage faith-based films, docs and TV shows. Ron is the founder-owner of Festival Films, a 45-year-old media company that specializes in providing vintage films and TV shows to DVD, TV stations, and on demand streaming platforms. Derek is a TV industry veteran and founder-owner of Myers Memories. He has been collecting 16mm original films for over 30 years and has a knack for ferreting out lost and rare religious content.

Gospel Films Library was inspired by the success and popularity of RedeemTV, a similar FREE streaming service offering over 1500 faith-based titles in various genres of mostly contemporary content or produced during the 21st century.

The Gospel Films Library website has a parallel Roku channel. Both are cost-free, without ads, and with no subscription or registration required. Like RedeemTV, the free GFL website and Roku channel are viewer supported and depend on donor support.
