October | November | December 2016 Dear Friend, Over the past decade, the world has witnessed a seismic cultural shift in media . . . the digital revolution. As digital platforms exploded onto the scene, the world became an interactive “screened” culture—and a generation emerged with a film studio in their pocket and a global megaphone gifted to them courtesy of the Internet. The battle for our hearts and minds expands. This democratization of the media has created countless messengers and storytellers and is transforming Hollywood from a geographical location to a global concept. Today’s media influencers are not only found behind conference tables in boardrooms, but also behind laptops in Starbucks and sitting with fingers crossed at international film festivals. As “Hollywood” expands onto an omnipresent global stage, countless new voices have appeared, opening up an unprecedented opportunity to relationally invest in media influencers—to pray, serve, and care for them and to thoughtfully engage in today’s cultural conversations. Like you and me, many gifted, hardworking professionals seek personal peace, unconditional love, unqualified forgiveness, and spiritual power to optimize their lives. While research demonstrates that most have jettisoned any vestige of personal faith in exchange for a more secular world view, some do have a vital belief or are just “one miracle away” from having one. And together, we can be there for them. Will you pray earnestly with us for these people—both media gatekeepers and cultural influencers? Pray for God’s personal impact on their lives, for His guidance and wisdom for them, and for them to come to a deeper relationship with Him. Pray for God to infuse the mighty power of media with messages that uplift, inspire and unify. Our responsibility is to pray for these leaders.

Dear Friend,

Over the past decade, the world has witnessed a seismic cultural shift in media . . . the digital revolution.

As digital platforms exploded onto the scene, the world became an interactive “screened” culture—and a generation emerged with a film studio in their pocket and a global megaphone gifted to them courtesy of the Internet. The battle for our hearts and minds expands.

This democratization of the media has created countless messengers and storytellers and is transforming Hollywood from a geographical location to a global concept. Today’s media influencers are not only found behind conference tables in boardrooms, but also behind laptops in Starbucks and sitting with fingers crossed at international film festivals.

As “Hollywood” expands onto an omnipresent global stage, countless new voices have appeared, opening up an unprecedented opportunity to relationally invest in media influencers—to pray, serve, and care for them and to thoughtfully engage in today’s cultural conversations.

Like you and me, many gifted, hardworking professionals seek personal peace, unconditional love, unqualified forgiveness, and spiritual power to optimize their lives. While research demonstrates that most have jettisoned any vestige of personal faith in exchange for a more secular world view, some do have a vital belief or are just “one miracle away” from having one. And together, we can be there for them.

Will you pray earnestly with us for these people—both media gatekeepers and cultural influencers? Pray for God’s personal impact on their lives, for His guidance and wisdom for them, and for them to come to a deeper relationship with Him. Pray for God to infuse the mighty power of media with messages that uplift, inspire and unify.

Our responsibility is to pray for these leaders. Theirs is to decide whether or not to allow Him to work in and through them for great, pure, and noble purposes.

Serving together,

DaN RuppleCeO
