The Exodus, but make it comedy
Why is a show like this worth making?

That tension
is what drew us in.
The Promised Land is built on a simple idea: the people in the Bible were people.
Numbers 12:3
With characters like Abraham, Isaac, and Moses, it's easy to put the people we read about in the Bible on a pedestal, like they're perfect or even superhuman.
But the truth is that God loves and uses imperfect people, just like them (and us, too) for his perfect mission.
1 Corinthians 1:27–29
1 Samuel 16:7
Judges 6:15–16
Like in The Office or Parks and Rec, our characters talk to the camera, break the fourth wall, and let the audience in on those awkward, chaotic, and humorous moments.
We’re not mocking Scripture. We’re mocking ourselves as we try to live it out.
The Promised Land is a long way of saying, “Yeah, I’d probably complain too, wouldn’t I.”
Comedy creates connection, lowers defenses, and allows audiences to see themselves in the story.
And this show isn’t just for Bible scholars or Sunday school regulars.
We want people who’ve never heard these stories to maybe finally say, “Wait, this is actually good.”
But at its core, this is a story about how God works through unlikely people in unlikely ways.
Exodus 3:4 & 6
If God could lead a nation with a shepherd on the run, a reluctant spokesman, and a sarcastic sister, maybe there’s hope for the rest of us too.
Exodus 3:1
Exodus 4:14-15
Exodus 15:20-21
