Visual Story Network
http://www.VisualStoryNetwork.org
* Member
The Visual Story Network is a coalition of missional and creative Christians working together to fuel a global movement of visual story for the kingdom of God. We live in a transitional time in the history of the Church. We believe a great opportunity exists to move beyond preach and print to portray. When God’s people consistently create and share visual stories in culturally compelling ways with every person on the earth so people can experience life-change through Jesus a movement will have occurred. We define visual story as combining narrative and visual media in communicating the message of Christ and His kingdom.
Through this online community we seek to…
1. Advocate for the need for visual story
2. Provide opportunities to connect and collaborate
3. Promote best practices and products
4. Equip God’s people to create and use visual story

PURE HOPE

* SoCal Advisory Board Member
Purity and hope are at the center of everything we do. The Biblical call to purity in thought, word, and deed, particularly in the area of sexuality, is perhaps more important than ever in our society, where daily men, women, and children are assaulted by images, ideas, and expectations that lead to bondage and relational breakdown. But purity is more than simply an avoidance of impurity, more than abstinence from harmful sexual acts and attitudes. It is a dynamic lifestyle that seeks to live out our calling to justice and righteousness. This is reflected in the acronym PURE, representing Pray/Understand/ Resolve/Engage, the four active characteristics of a pure life that will positively impact the world around us.
