Regina Hall and Sterling K. Brown are taking fans to church.

On Thursday, an official trailer for the pair's upcoming mockumentary-style comedy, titled Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul., was released.

Following Pastor Lee-Curtis Childs (Brown, 46), the leader of a Southern Baptist megachurch, the movie chronicles his journey as he and his wife, Trinitie Childs (Hall, 51), try to bring their congregation back to their side after a scandal forces their church to temporarily close.

Marking Adamma Ebo's first time directing a feature film, the filmmaker also lends her talents as a producer, alongside Hall and Brown, as well as twin sister Adanne Ebo and Daniel Kaluuya, among others. Adamma also serves as a writer on the project.

In the opening of the two-and-a-half-minute trailer, Hall's Trinitie and Brown's Lee-Curtis find themselves embroiled in controversy, though they try to clear their names and reestablish their power with a camera crew by their side.

As scenes flash onscreen of the couple's uphill battle, Brown's Lee-Curtis admits, "I'm a sinner, but I'm no criminal."

In one funny moment, the husband and wife attempt to gather attention for their disgraced church by holding up a sign with "Honk for Jesus" plastered in glittery lettering while next to a street.

"You ain't really getting that many beeps, baby," Lee-Curtis tells Trinitie, before prompting her to "Shake it for the Lord" in order to gather more attention from drivers.
