A Matter of Faith

A Matter of Faith is a 2014 American Christian drama film directed by Rich Christiano and starring Harry Anderson (in his final role), Jordan Trovillion, Jay Pickett, and Clarence Gilyard.

[1][6] The fictional story follows a Christian student (played by Trovillion) and her father (Pickett) who are challenged by a biology professor (Anderson) who teaches evolution.

[7][8] In 2013 Michigan, Rachel Whitaker, who has been raised as an evangelical Christian, celebrates a going-away party with her friends and family, as she is all set to go to college.

There, her atheist biology professor, Dr. Kaman, teaches the theory of evolution, rather than the biblical concept of creationism.

Rachel's father Stephen is concerned by the change in her personality and beliefs, and confronts the professor, finding himself challenged to a debate on religion much to the embarrassment of his daughter.

Rachel's newfound romantic interest, Tyler, plans to invite her to a Saturday night party to get her drunk and have sex with her.

[1] Common Sense Media gave the film a one out of five rating, criticizing its "clear agenda" and "clichéd plotting".

[9] The Young Earth creationist and Christian apologetics organization Answers in Genesis (AiG) promoted the film.
