In a culturally media saturated generation it is difficult to believe in the existence of God. Media is now the main element that dictates our beliefs, opinions and can motivate our actions in life. ARE WE VICTIMS OF AN ILLUSION or ARE WE JUST CAPTIVATED BY MEDIAS OOHS AND AWS? This very question is the question we must all ask ourselves. Why is it significant that I know the story of 217 Media?

The very reason why you are captivated by media and it's wonders. God who is the creator of all that is good want's us to experience good. So why not use the wonders of media to show God's goodness and love through a form of art. 217 Media want's to give teens and young adults an opportunity to express God's everlasting love through the art of media. A form of NEW EVANGELIZATION. "In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead." James 2:17.

From the beginNingThe one thing Jesus understood was how to connect with people. Christ used parables to captivate different people from different walks of life. He understood how important story telling was and used this technique in order to evangelize to the masses. |
Where we are nowChrist is calling for modern disciples and he is asking for us not to change the Gospel but to instead understand how to evangelize to this generation. The evolution of media is evident in our culture and as generations change then so do the dynamics of media. |
