Campus Crusade For Christ International

Organization Representative: Bob Varney, Senior Advisor to the President

Campus Crusade for Christ was founded in 1951 by Drs. Bill and Vonette Bright and since that time, the Lord has blessed the work globally with ministry now in 191 countries. The vision of Campus Crusade is for movements everywhere so that everyone knows someone who truly follows Jesus. The fulfillment of this vision is much bigger than any single organization and bigger than small groups of Christian organizations working together. Movements everywhere will occur only through the power of the Holy Spirit at work throughout the body of Christ.

Campus Crusade for Christ seeks to work with many members of the body of Christ in pursuit of its vision. Dr. Varney has stated: “With our global staff, focus on urban centers and several film titles, including the JESUS film, I think it is valuable to come alongside IJNP to advise them and work with them as they establish a Christian Movie Studio which is expected to leverage the power of mainstream Christian film to impact the world with the message of Jesus Christ. We know film is a far-reaching global media that can be leveraged for God’s purposes. It is a very effective communications tool in today’s culture.”

Luis Palau Association

Organization Representative: Kevin Palau, President

The Luis Palau Association, through innovative evangelism, seeks to proclaim the Gospel to as many people as possible, to mobilize the church, and to equip the next generation to spread the Good News.  We pursue our mission through outdoor festival events, Livin It® (extreme sport) DVDs and events, the Next Generation Alliance, and media.

The Luis Palau Association is partnering with In Jesus’ Name Productions because we understand the influence and reach media has in our culture and around the world.  IJNP’s pursuit of excellence and innovation in sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ through film on a global scale is something we support with enthusiasm and believe will have an eternal impact on many.

Mission America Coalition

Organization Representative: Jim Overholt, National Director of Strategic Initiatives

The Mission America Coalition (MAC) is the largest coalition of national Christian leaders ever assembled for the express purpose of collaborative evangelism in America.

Since its inception, leaders from 81 denominations, over 350 ministries and dozens of ministry networks have been involved in the Coalition.  MAC calls for active participation in The Great Commission of Jesus Christ to "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19) and our Lord’s Great Commandment to "Love the Lord your God . . . and love your neighbor as yourself" (Matthew 22:37, 39).

The majority of Americans, including evangelical Christians, have deplored the lack of family friendly films available in our theaters.  In recent years, the single biggest positive influence on the entertainment industry’s collective willingness to produce more family and faith friendly content has been the box office success of films like Passion, Narnia, and Facing the Giants.  Mission America has been involved in the promotion of these and other films in the Christian community. In Jesus' Name Productions provides a way for Christians to have even more influence in Hollywood and increase the number of Christ honoring films the world will get to see.

Youth For Christ

Organization Representative: Dr. Dave Rahn, Senior Vice President, Chief Ministry Officer

Youth for Christ has focused on reaching young people with the gospel for over 60 years.  Active in over 100 countries around the world and 200 locations across the United States, YFC engages teens in relationships on school campuses, juvenile justice institutions, neighborhood centers, military bases, the local McDonalds ... basically anywhere teens are at, you'll find staff and volunteers of YFC.  Last school year, we were engaged with over 65,000 American teens on any given week, and God used us as a conduit for 27,000 young people here and 125,000 kids across the world to trust Christ as their Savior through our efforts.

And we don't do it alone ... part of our mission statement says that we strategically work with the local church and like-minded ministry partners to raise up lifelong followers of Jesus.  That's why we enthusiastically endorse and connect with In Jesus' Name Productions -- we are committed to reach the estimated 50 million young people in the U.S. who are not connected to a local church ministry, and we are thankful for the role multi-media and film plays in helping us do just that.
