Have you ever wondered what God really looks like? Is it the same as when you first conceived of God? Does our view of God change with age and geography and what are the consequences of our convictions? A little more than three-years ago, a journalist named, Nathan Lang, our storyteller, along with a few buddies, also journalists, set out on an expedition of sorts. They were in search of the meaning of God, which if you know them, is ironic. But they would do it by way of exploring what God looks like to us, or in other words, how we view God. Follow along as they construct a curious Box and take it to iconic street corners and small towns, across the country. Inside The Box, there’s a stool, a drawing table, a sketchpad and pencils, plus microphones and cameras to record all the action. The Box, which becomes a main character in its own story, is a vessel for people to step inside and answer the two, fundamental questions the film asserts: What does God mean to you? What does God look like to you? What happens next is a complete wildcard. Some people draw. Some people get angry. Everyone who goes in there is moved to self-expression. It’s an intimate peek inside our feelings – which is all we’ve got, since it’s impossible to come by facts about God. Then with the help of an engaging collection of theologians, scholars and an archeologist, we analyze the answers and drawings. Why do we have these images and ideas in our heads? Is this really God? This expedition leads down an evocative trail from our twenty-first century perspectives to the roots of our inspirations. One can’t help but be transported inside The Box and once inside, as the filmmaker finds out, one can’t help being transformed by the experience. God In The Box offers you a unique window to look at the views of others and a mirror to examine your own.
