COVER STORY: A resurrection in faith-based films | Watch Video

With the end of big-budget Biblical epics, faith-based movies have long been out of favor in Hollywood.

Correspondent John Blackstone talks with Chrissy Metz, start of the film "Breakthrough"; Bishop T.D. Jakes, a pastor who has also produced several hit Christian films, including "Miracles From Heaven"; and students learning the craft of filmmaking at Liberty University, one of the largest Christian universities in the world.
