Video Ministry: Celebrate Freedom

The 4th of July is fun to celebrate freedom.

I can think of no better celebration than rejoicing over one'strue freedom through salvation in Jesus.

This holiday brings back a special memory for me concerning myson William. Around this time three years ago, he accepted Jesus into his heart and became a Christian. It was a true celebrate freedom in Jesus Time!

Ever with a camera in my hand, I recorded a video with him sharing a bit about it, and uploaded it to my YouTube account and put it on one of my blogs.

I didn't think much of it.

A few weeks went by when all of a sudden I was getting these e-mails relaying comments on my blog. It was this very blog too by the way.

They were NOT pretty and nice comments.

Without my knowing it, a very agnostic and atheist blog had picked up my YouTube video, put it on their blog, and proceeded to rip me as a Christian. They said some of the ugliest things…that I was brain washing my child and was crazy…That was not the worst of things said…

Before I had shot this video, I had made up my mind….kind of like drawing a line in the sand, saying to myself that I would continue using video online to proclaim Jesus Christ. I had started my own video ministry, Keys To Be Free, about three months before this all out vicious attack.
The Celebrate Freedom Video Of Controversy
I thought about taking the video down…but then…thought…NO!

I had a few people stick up for me and share in the joy of William's moment to celebrate freedom in Christ! But the attacks were more than the hoorays!

It was a pivotal time though. This attack made me all the more committed to study and learn about video and how to produce it FOR MINISTRY!!

Today, I am more passionate than ever to use video to proclaim the goodness of our Lord Jesus. AND I'm committed to help others do the same.

Yes, I want to see YOU harness the power of the internet for preaching….for the Gospel…for your ministry.

I guess this time of the year reminds me how good God has been as I see others use the internet positively to impact others for Christ, as they celebrate their freedom in Him.

My husband and I have had a online digital ministry for over a year at FirebrandMinistry.com…..with visitors all over the world.

So what about you? Has God been tugging on your heart to be brave, be bold, and look into a camera and speak!! …or WRITE….or TEACH…or PREACH…online?

I put up a new series…15 videos….to help those who are ready to go forward in their ministry online…whether it's for video or blogging…or social media or…

The Video Ministry Continues

Above is another video I made of William singing, "Me and God". Whether it was my kids, my husband preaching, or my ministry marketing training, I was going to continue!!

Using The Power Of Web Video For Your Marketing Plan

Now is the time to use web video for your business or ministry marketing plan, your videoministry, marketing your Christian music or group, and for reaching out for greater exposure online.

I really have a heart for those who are trying to do this for ministry. One of my passions is to help with web video in particular. For some, video production online can seem too complicated, "techy" or simply a daunting task.

It does not have to be!

If you have a heart for using video for online promotion and ministry, I'd like to introduce one simple online video tool to consider. The best part is it's free and comes with the potential to help you gain valuable connections. Even if ministry is not your focus, but business online is, I think you too will see the value in this tool.

Here is an example of the power behind the idea of the easy web video plan for ministry:








In light of ministry online, consider this.You can start your free video ministry today and take advantage of the trend of people watching more Christian online videos, podcasts, or UstreamTV Christian TV.

In a recent article about "E-vangelism" in Charisma Magazine, they reported on the growing number of people reaching out online to receive spiritual help. Here is proof that now, more than ever before, you need to take advantage of an easy vido tool and use it for your videoministry, and ministry marketing.

One study they wrote about in this article was by the Barna Group. Their study revealed that nearly one in four adults said they downloaded a church podcast in the last week.



David Kinnaman, the lead researcher on this particular study says in essence that:

"Technology presents a newfound opportunity for ministers to evangelize a worldwide audience."

Another prominent voice in this move toward more Christian online videos and ministry is Phil Cooke, president of Cooke Pictures. He says that Christian ministries and media need to be active in engaging a one on one conversation with a generation accustomed to giving their opinions and thoughts on Web sites.

"It's far more than having a fancy Web site and cool grapics, says Cooke, author of BRANDING FAITH, a book about telling powerful stories in a media-dominated culture that changes people's lives inside and out.

"The thing we have to understand is what is the story we are trying to tell. What is the audience that is interested in that story and how do we connect with that audience? Until we understand that, all the other things don't matter,"Cooke states.





So what is God saying to you? You can't use the excuse about not having money. If you have a computer and a web cam, you can have your own free video ministry. Now, if you don't have a web cam, I hope you'll have the diligence to save like my friend Rev. Harriet Bradley did, to start her own free videoministry!


You can also see this example with Bishop CD Miller with her Just Jesus website, among other powerful free tools she uses for her videoministry.

Are you ready? You can go to the Free Easy Video Tool sign up page to learn more.

The Ministry Marketing Plan Part II

In Part I of having a market plan for your ministry, as a stay at home mom, or for business, I talked about identifying your passion, what you really enjoy doing, and finding ways to turn that passion into profit. It is a true blessing to make a living doing what you enjoy and what you may feel is part of your God given destiny.

The next "p" has to do with dealing with the people along that journey.

People

How well do you deal with people? You will never be successful in any market plan in business if you don't serve and help other people. The most successful entrepreneurs understand that business is more about what they give than what they get.

As a mom, you can understand this well in dealing with your children. You often have to "die" to your own needs to raise your babies to be children, your children to be teens, and your teens to be...adults!

Those in ministry realize this servant's heart also. Just as Jesus came to serve, to the point of stooping down and washing His disciples feet, the example has been set. This amazingly simple but sometimes difficult to perform act is rooted as a basic Biblical principle.

Check out Philippians 2:4: "Let each of you look out not only for your own interests, but also for the interests of others."

Again, the principle is seen in Romans 12:10: "Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another..."

I think you understand perfectly. The Bible is full of verses relating to thinking more of others than yourself!

This quote from Mike Dillard, one of the powerful leaders in the home business marketing arena, struck a chord with me in regards to this focus on the importance of people and relationships:



"A REAL, life-long business that is completely immune to attrition and market trends can be built, but it can't be centered around an opportunity or a product. It must be built around you, your name, and your relationships. That's your true asset because it cannot be taken away. Networking is a people business driven by marketing."

Finally, the final "P"!

Perseverance in priorities

I slipped an extra "p" in this market plan. Persevere in what God has called you to do. Stay committed, passionate, diligent...without losing your faith, family and friends. Be consistent with the basics of your market plan all the while keeping your priorities in line.


Serve and maintain your relationship with God. Serve and love your spouse, your children, your family and friends. Stay rooted in God's word using the power of prayer. Your time with Him should never take second place no matter how busy your schedule can be.

And yes, persevere through the peaks and valleys! Don't let your longing (financial freedom. money, material things) for something in the future slay your appetite for enjoying the now!

Amidst your working at home, in a ministry or business, stay on a schedule that keeps you productive in the activities which makes the profit, and still leave time for your family. It can be done!

What God has called you to do, He will more than enable you to walk there with His grace and wisdom as you lean on Him. The Lord will perfect that which concerns you! (Psalm 138:8)

Just Jesus TV: Your Ticket To A Video Ministry Plan

Just Jesus TV, founded by Bishop CD Miller, is a great example of how you can have a video ministry online as a way to promote your own version of Christian Television and minister to thousands.

Do you have a heart to share the Word of God? I truly believe one of the new battlegrounds as Christians is with online video.
Check these stats out in why video on the web is so powerful:

• In December of 2007, 10 Billion videos were viewed on line.
  
  
• Of all web traffic, 52 percent of it is video.
  (source: eMarketer, Dec 2007)
  
  
• In December, 141 million Americans viewed online video.
  
  
• There are over 1.5 BILLION Internet connected computers, worldwide. (source is Traffic Geyser)
  
  

Leading the way with this video ministry strategy using Just Jesus TV is Bishop CD Miller. Bishop Miller, a retired professional graphic designer and business owner, has numerous places online where her videos can be seen. She heads up a powerful online connection network called, HerSpace, A Women In Ministry Preachers' Network.

Bishop CD Miller shares here heart: "It’s Time for us to be true in receiving, following, believing, standing and expecting the Word to richly manifest itself into our lives. Our ministry is designed to encourage YOU…to “Manifest God’s Promises Now!” Our website(s) makes available resources for you to embrace the Word into your life. I personally want you to know His Will and Word for your life. I want you to be able to hold onto to God’s Promises until they fully appear and manifest into your life, now as well as eternally!"

You Can Find Financial Freedom: A Video Of Hope

Financial freedom. It's a dream for so many.

Healing of the body or emotions: Many have prayed for years to be healed.

Family struggles: Some have been praying for years for a conflict to be resolved or a child saved.

In light of the things that can keep us from experiencing freedom, I felt compelled to share this video I produced a few years ago. When someone made a comment that I should, I took the nudge as a confirmation.

So I ask you:

Have ever been in a pit that seemed to have drained the life out of you.? A pit so deep that fear takes over you and paralyzes your faith?

I know I've been there. That's why sharing Keys To Be Free and ministry marketing is so heavy on my heart. Especially in light of the fact God has given me grace and strength to crawl up out of that dark place, and sparked a vision that gives life to my soul!

I love the saying by Corrie Ten Boone, a Christian Holocaust survivor who helped many Jews escape the Nazis during World War II. It's a saying I often quoted on air as a Christian radio announcer:

"No pit is so deep that God's love is not deeper still.

So with that thought, I pray this video of freedom will bring help to you in the resurrection of your dreams and desires. From financial freedom to healing of your body, I believe with you that God can "turn your mourning into dancing". (Psalm 30:11)

Video:


Let me know how you've traded your sorrows for the joy of the Lord.
Let me rejoice with you over your freedom.
If you are not there, let me pray with you and believe for you!!

Be free my friend, and go toward that destiny God has for YOU!

Simple Video Step To Start Ministry Marketing Using Flip Video

Are you ready to enter the video marketing strategy with your ministry or your business?

This is one of my passions. To help Christians find ministry marketing ideas to help them as they look to promote their ministry or raise money so they can minister freely.

I'm in the midst of creating a whole website full of these tips.

It's a step by step process....A real journey. I'm in my beginning stages and loving it.

Why do I like this?

Well, as I said, I love to come alongside and help people. In addition, I am quite serious in looking into marketing strategies, personal development, and increasing skills. All of this comes wrapped in a neat package as I write for my site, read e-books and marketing strategies on line.

God is giving me a season where I can do this. So I'm trying to be faithful with my time, and dig in to get something up and running now. So then when school starts, business cranks up with AMC (http://amcdrywall7.com), I'll have something making treadway on the internet.

Marketing For Freedom to Serve

You can learn specific ministry marketing strategies to free you financially to serve God full-time.

Whether you are a Christian musician, businessman, or preacher, or a stay at home mom, you can utilize online marketing strategies that can be the key to set you free to minister. Financial freedom and your fulfillment to go in the direction of your God given destiny can go hand in hand today.

I have spent over 15 years as an announcer at a Christian radio station just outside of Atlanta, Georgia. The FM radio station is a ministry. I got to witness first hand the ups and downs of trying to raise support for the ministry, the balance one needs in mixing a ministry as a business, and the amazing giving spirit of Christians who gave to keep that station going strong.

My heart's passion is to see God's people financially free, mobile, and ready to serve Him.

While being in a ministry, I have had the chance to see successful Christian music marketing and Christian produced programs. I've also experienced first hand the struggles a ministry can have financially to continue in it's mission.

I believe God is raising up an army of Christians who are doing something about getting out of debt, finding financial freedom, working from home, and willing to do what it takes to have the resources to be able to be Jesus with skin on to a lost world.

Whether you feel your destiny is in Christian music, as an evangelist, a Christian businessperson, or even a stay at home mom, you can find keys to financial freedom and take advantage of the amazing possibilities on line!
