OH-MY-GOD-TV ! challenges you to make a movie about how you see God.
And we want to go further. Sometimes you feel God, you smell him, you have the feeling you almost can touch him. You don’t even have to believe in God to experience any of this. Sometimes you don’t get it, but you get caught by surprise by something bigger, something bigger than yourself. We're looking for these moments.
How do you see God? Where do you see God? When you’re lying in your bed? When you go to a concert and thousands are singing a song? When you’re eating French fries with your friends, …? That’s this initiative’s challenging question. So grab your camera, webcam or mobile phone and send us your movie.
Moreover, the “movie with the most views”, “the funniest movie”, “the best title”, “the best visualization”, etc,… are being rewarded with fabulous prices. So get busy!

The original initiators of this site are Avimo vzw, the Thomas project at the K.U.Leuven and the film production house Black Maria. Avimo vzw no longer exists. It was a non-profit organisation that gave high priority to the audio-visual media, hence this last project. Spirituality cannot be approached with words only. Images can tell so much more. The current activities of Avimo are now assigned to Abdij Keizersberg: CASTRUM vzw - section AVIMO.
