Biola Media Conference

This week I will be in Los Angeles at the Biola Media Conference. I would appreciate your prayers as there is much to accomplish. I plan on doing several interviews with Christians who work in mainstream media and entertainment. We’re going to use this content for both our website and a new, proposed television program, Media Missionary TV, to be aired on several Christian television networks.

If you’re not familiar with the Biola Media Conference, it’s considered to be the largest gathering of Christians who work in mainstream media. It’s held annually on the CBS lot in Studio City. It’s a great opportunity for networking and meeting new people in the industry. I plan to extensively cover the event.

My friend, Cheryl Wicker, who writes for Examiner.com, wrote an article concerning this year’s conference. Please take a look at it. And if you’re considering attending, online registration is open until April 26 at the discount rate.

Media professionals from all over the country will once again gather together on Saturday, April 30, 2011, at CBS Studios in California for the 2011 Biola Media Conference (formerly Christian & Media).

Considered the biggest national forum for Christian mainstream media professionals in the country, this year's Biola Media Conference keynote speaker is 'Wired Magazine' co-founder and futurist Kevin Kelly, widely regarded as one of the most authoritative voices in the digital revolution. Kelly is the editor and publisher of the Cool Tools website, which attracts a whopping half a million unique visitors every month.
