After a few years I feel like I am drying up!

I think your list is pretty good. Watching through some of the sermon illustration short film websites makes me sick to my stomach. literally. Also, i't s funny that Nooma and Beamer showed up in the comments. Hey guys. Well said. I think your list is pretty good.

I actually run my own video production company and we are in the process of getting out of the corporate/sales video arena to dedicate ourselves to full-time Christian media. I run media for our church and I can't tell you the HOURS I spend trying to find something powerful, professional, pointed, etc. that is relevant.

Not to be weird and sales pitchy, but you could take a peek at my work online at BeamerFilms.com. I own my own studio with high end equipment and a ton of money wrapped up in film education. You may love or hate my stuff. I'm trying to do exactly what you mentioned above. Provide unique material that's outside the norm. Take a look, if you get a chance. Thanks, Cris Hey.

And I'm sure there'd be plenty of others.

I have been a pro designer for about 6 years. I stumbled into the mychurchwebsite page and through my wanderings found your blog. I would have to agree with most everything you said. I hate christian movies, I personally think that for the most part they are either dumb or they end up try to portray christians as these DEEP phylosphical beings. Anyway your stuff is really good.

So many are looking for feel good relief in media. However, I fear we will not discover such relief, but rather must find comfort in the knowledge of Christ and Him crucified, thus allowing us a ticket far away from this world gone rouge.
