Why Focus on Visual Media?

This generation is demonstrating a profound shift from written word to video screen as the primary means of communicating big ideas.   Filmmakers in every nation have become the new prophets, directing the focus and values of their cultures.  Emerge provides significant training to assist emerging Christian leaders in becoming powerful communicators using visual media.

“If we don’t mobilize believers to use visual media, then we are “dead in the water” with the next generation.”
–Jim Green, President of The Jesus Film Project.

Consider these statistics:

85% of USA college graduates will never read another entire book in their lifetime.  Ministry lesson: we can’t use print media very effectively with this generation.

The average teen spends 6.5 hours a day consuming media, but gets 8.5 hours of content because they often use two media sources at a time (watching TV while surfing the net). Their primary media choices are visual in nature.

At Emerge, we are particularly interested in developing outreach leaders and media missionaries for the harvest of Asia.  We want to see them having the confidence and ability to get a fiery vision, make a strategic communication plan and then execute it effectively through an indigenous team whose talents they have helped develop.
