Learn more about this ministry.
30 years filming.
750+ gospel videos.
One prevailing message.
We are a not-for-profit, good news media service, using film and streaming technologies to share the best news we could ever hear! Because each video we produce is centred on the most influential person in history, Jesus Christ, it is our hope that insight and inspiration from his life and teachings will transform the lives of many more people.
Jesus often taught using stories and parables. Many of us remember the stories told us from childhood. Today many gain their moral compass from stories as told in movies and television. Thus we see that, "a visual generation requires a visual gospel."
Our film work started in 1985 with a documentary filmed on location in Jerusalem, Israel. Our first digital films, in dial-up formats, streamed over the internet beginning in 1997. As internet technologies developed, our work in sharing the gospel via media also improved. Many of our videos are just a few minutes in duration, with longer videos added later.
Our mission and ministry in film has always been to simply share the good news of Jesus Christ.
Of the 750+ gospel films produced, our topics essentially have focused on the essential "Rs" of " Receive Jesus", "Resurrection hope", "Return of Jesus", "Repentance", "Redemption", "Righteousness" and "Rest". All intersect and exult in the identity, life and ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Reflecting over the past two decades, we note that when we started sharing the gospel via film, we really had no idea of how far-reaching and effective media streaming could be in reaching the lost. There was always, however, that call to persist in exploring the timelessness of God's grace and truth in our complex world of faith-versus-secularism.
We hope and pray that you are blessed and encouraged by the gospel message here as shared via media.
We invite you to partner with us in this labour. Please pray that the LORD of the harvest would call and commission many more disciples, who with fervent vision and Christ-centred identity, passionately embrace the work of supporting ministry work. We need capable media producers, editors, presenters and those gifted in apologetics who can speak into this generation’s greatest need. It requires personal sacrifice in the LORD Jesus Christ's service so that yet another person can hear the good news. Jesus wants us to step up into his vision and purpose.
The name of Messageweek Media Ministries is derived from the weekly cycle of work and Sabbath rest. It's on the sanctified and blessed seventh day of the week that many followers of Christ receive their spiritual nourishment from the God's Word. Our lives are busy. Our days often full of cares. But when Sabbath comes, we spurn the enslavement of the temporal, and instead experience a freedom in Christ that transcends this world's cares. Over the past two decades, we have uploaded a new gospel video almost every week.
