What is the purpose of World Wide Pictures?
The purpose of World Wide Pictures is to support the ministry and calling of Billy Graham to take the message of Christ to all we can by producing and distributing high-quality audio-visual evangelistic presentations.

Where can I buy WWP videos and DVDs?
In the U.S., you can order online. Also, look for WWP videos/DVDs at your local Christian bookstore or call 1-800-501-4557 (in Canada, 1-800-661-9467). In Canada, you can also order online through Crown Video. For public showings such as in churches, call 1-800-733-4997. International customers can order online through GospelDirect.com. In the United Kingdom, please contact the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association Ltd.

Can I show my home video/DVD to our church?
No, not until you purchase the public-showing rights by calling 1-800-733-4997. Your home video/DVD is only licensed for home use. This is a U.S. copyright law that will help keep great WWP movies coming to you in the future.

Can I rent WWP home videos and DVDs?
Each Christian bookstore or video store decides which titles they carry for rental. Ask the stores to call 1-800-788-0442 to obtain our titles. People have also purchased WWP home videos/DVDs and donated them to their neighborhood video store for rental—sometimes with the stipulation that they will be rented free of charge.

Will WWP movies be aired on network television in the U.S.?
Individual network stations now show our movies as part of a syndication. However, it appears our films mention the name of Jesus Christ too often to be broadcast by a national network. Pray that future productions will gain more network acceptance.

Will WWP movies be in theaters again?
The Climb (2002), Road to Redemption (2001), and The Ride (1997) were limited-releases to theaters. This viewing experience is highly desirable, yet very expensive and will be considered on a per-film basis.

Are all of your actors Christians?
Some are and some aren't. We ask God to provide the best talent available in order to make the best God-honoring production possible. Key content decision-makers are indeed Christians. Some cast and crew members have even been drawn to a relationship with Christ right on the set.

How can I get involved in acting in one of your films?
We hire a new casting director for each production. They are the primary decision-makers, and they hire on location.

Do you accept outside scripts?
Sorry, we are not currently accepting unsolicited scripts. Story ideas come from internal sources and contacts. Should our policy change, an update will be made to this FAQ page.

Do you have internship programs?
No, the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) currently does not offer internships. If you are interested in employment, please see the BGEA employment section.
