2008 - New Year Letter
          
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Tonight I was looking out over the hills of  Bel Air I was praying about my dreams and hopes for the new year.  As joy welled up inside of me, I realized how God has used us all as a part of the big picture of His work here in the entertainment community, to answer our dreams of Hollywood Transformation. On the right I posted a link to a recent New York Times article that portrays some of this. It is called, Christianity in TV.

REFLECTIONS
I remember when I first arrived here  the expression kept going through my  mind, "‘When black and white are grey."  It reflected how I felt about the “Hollywood’ Christians I was meeting  that behaved no differently than those in the world.

EASTER /PASSOVER GIFT
Make sure to visit the interfaith DVD section and view the 6-minute excerpt. If you have a friend or relative who is in an interfaith (Jewish-gentile) relationship or marriage, the DVD of  "Joined Together?" makes an ideal gift at this time of year. This award winning DVD presents spiritual solutions to some of the challenges of interfaith marriage. It is funny, moving and presents Yeshua in a completely unique way that connects with intermarried couples. This past year several congregations in Michigan, California and Florida used this program as an outreach event in their community. It also aired on 2 international Christian TV networks.

NEW PARTNERSHIPS
This year  I have partnered with BEACON: (Bel Air Arts and entertainment community) out of Bel Air Presbyterian church. I have been serving on their lead team, helping to to forge the new mission statement (which, of course contains much of the same vision that PRISM embodies)., planning events and having a place where twice a month I can bring those in entertainment.. ....Read full letter
