1) Recognizing the unique profile and number of Bel Air’s congregants who are working and seeking   
to work in all levels of entertainment, THE BEACON will minister to, and equip, the “industry    
marketplace Christians” in our midst. To this end we will:

    √    Impart training that enables our members to develop discernment, strengthen  their
           Integrity, and perform with excellence in the workplace of “Hollywood”.
       
    √    Offer a holistic vision  for the integration of faith and vocation within Bel Air’s    
           entertainment and creative communities.

    √    Increase our members’ ability to be “salt and light” by encouraging them to
            fulfill Christ’s mandate to personally evangelize (the gospel of salvation) and  
            transform culture (the social gospel) through their vocational calling.

    2) THE BEACON will, both directly and indirectly, influence the mainstream media that       
  impacts the world.  To this end, we will:

   
    √    Reach “culture creators”, influencers and decision-makers in order to  infuse   
          their business and creative choices, as well as their media content, with a Biblical worldview.

    √    Encourage and facilitate the creation of new models and system    
           structures within Hollywood...ones that reflect Kingdom principles.


    3) THE BEACON will serve as a resource to the greater body of Christ in navigating the    
Cultural Revolution that is emerging through the media, arts and entertainment. To this end, we will:
   
    √     Promote theologically accurate and culturally relevant content in media   
            by educating and engaging the greater body of  Christ (the culture consumers) in their    
            role within the marketplace of ideas.

    √    Provide servant leadership and vision within the Hollywood Entertainment    
           Ministry community to help allocate kingdom resources, minimize missed opportunities,   
            and maximize our orchestrated voice.

    √    Equip other churches, pastors and ministries through teaching, training and            
            sharing of resources as they seek to incorporate arts and media into their vision for           
            ministry.

    √     Engage seminaries and other educational institutions  – so that future pastors    
            and leaders can embrace an ideology that engages culture and fully integrates     
            faith and vocation as t it relates to work in entertainment and general media.


    4) THE BEACON will partner with, and facilitate, individuals and groups that use        
entertainment and general media to teach, preach and evangelize to both the churched    
nd the un-churched. To this end, we will:

       √    Engage in global and local missions by effectively utilizing the creative talents and           
          gifts of those in our midst.

        √    Supply training and resources to these individuals, organizations and    
              projects, as we seek to raise the level of quality, so that “Christian content” in    
            entertainment can reflect the glory and excellence of the master creator.
