WHERE CHRIST MATTERS TO THE PEOPLE

ARTIST & MINISTRY BLOG COLLECTIONS

As events of 2020 unfolded, darkly in the eyes of many people we’ve encountered, we at Kingdom Impact Theater Ministries, have made two provocative discoveries:

Artists in Ministry & Mission by Byron Spradlin Backstage Blog by Chuck Neighbors

1. More folks are open to listening to who Jesus is than assumed; 2. Christ-following churches must be bolder demonstrating Christ as the resolution to societal ills. Hardly a day passes when our ensemble members are not drawn into talks about racial disunity, or are asked to give faith perspectives to non-church goers on matters they don’t believe are addressed in worship gatherings, matters as sexuality, education, public policies and mental health. Kingdom Impact Theater Ministries doesn’t take an official position endorsing any particular public issue, except to say seek first His kingdom, and all these things will be resolved through Him (Matthew 6:32-34). Yet, from these encounters we are more aware of our call to more visibly clarify why Christ is the solution people seek. As theater missionaries, our question is “How?”

Our D.C. trip encountered citizens at the White House to voice concerns and seek solutions. Many also seek Christ.

To do so:

We need digital versions of our ministry shows and training to make them more accessible to park districts, community forums and people at home.

We’re committed to help local churches fine-tune their online presentations and network outside the building.

We need time, space to create material to stimulate conversation how Christ matters daily.

We have explored costs of these outreaches on specific platforms. We pray and seek support to use them.

SOCIAL MEDIA AS A GOSPEL TOOL Kingdom Impact Theater Ministries greatly believes the Internet and other social media are powerful tools in sharing the gospel of Christ “to all the ends of the earth.” Our goal in September is to add 50 new social media followers per platform. Please follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram this month. Enjoy favorite posts from recent weeks.
