Our Ministry
THE JESUS FILM PROJECT
There is a tremendous competition for the hearts and minds of people throughout the world. Every culture is being bombarded with secular media.
It would be easy to assume that if we just translated the Bible into all the world’s languages then our problem would be solved. However, more than 50 percent of the world’s population is illiterate. Therefore, we need tools that will bring God’s Word to them in their “heart language.”
The JESUS Film Project seeks to provide effective evangelism and follow-up film tools and strategies to help reach everyone everywhere for Christ. The tool that launched the ministry, the JESUS film, is a two-hour docudrama about the life of Christ based on the Gospel of Luke. It has been translated into more than 1,100 languages and had more than 6 billion viewings worldwide since 1979. As a result, more than 200 million people have indicated decisions to accept Christ as their personal Savior and Lord.
WHAT WE DO
Doug and Karen believe they have a part to play in reaching the world for Christ through The JESUS Film Project.
Doug is part of the New Media team which creates new film tools and strategies for The JESUS Film Project. These tools are used for evangelism and follow-up which connect people in their heart language in media-sophisticated parts of the world. Doug serves as a producer for narrative-based film projects.
Karen serves the Europe and East Asia countries through the Field Information Services team. She collects stories from national staff ministering in these nations to share with ministry partners who support their JESUS film activity. Karen encourages ministry partners through written reports that share these stories. She considers it a tremendous privilege to hear these incredible stories directly from the people who experienced them and pass them on to ministry partners of The JESUS Film Project.
CAMPUS CRUSADE FOR CHRIST
The JESUS Film Project is a ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ. Campus Crusade is an interdenominational ministry founded in 1951 by Bill and Vonette Bright. Begun on the campus, the ministry now touches many segments of society. The staff and volunteers serve in 191 countries. Ministries include U.S. Campus Ministry, Athletes in Action, FamilyLife, Josh McDowell Ministry and The JESUS Film Project to name just a few.
Campus Crusade is committed to helping take the gospel of Jesus Christ to all nations by partnering with organizations around the world. Campus Crusade holds to the historic beliefs of the Christian faith, including the authority of Scripture, the lordship of Christ, and salvation based on the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
BECOME A PARTNER
It will take everyone working together to reach the world for Christ. That is why Doug and Karen invite others to partner with them in spreading the gospel. Would you become part of the team that is investing in Doug and Karen’s ministry?
In order for us to our ministry work, we depend on the partnership of individuals like you. Like many other mission organizations, Campus Crusade for Christ staff members depend on the consistent financial support of concerned individuals like you to carry on their ministry.
Contributions from individuals like you are the only source of income to support our ministry. Campus Crusade has no central funds for paying salaries.
We need to expand the number of ministry partners involved with our ministry. We’re looking for partners who will give $100 a month or some other amount to support our ministry. We are dependent on these individuals so that we can continue to serve effectively and without interruption.
Because it’s a partnership we are making three specific commitments to our partners.
- To work diligently to touch the lives of people for Jesus Christ.
- To regularly let you know how God is blessing our ministry. We send out newsletters and e-mail updates.
- To share prayer concerns with one another.
You can make an eternal investment in our outreach by joining us as a ministry partner. Together we can help turn spiritually lost men and women into Christ-centered laborers.
