There is considerable interest in Christianity in Japan, especially among youth. A comprehensive study of Japanese people and religion conducted by Gallup documented that six to seven percent of the youth identify themselves as “Christian.” Another research project – named “Elijah Symposium” - identified 7% of the youth of Japan as “hot prospects.”
Targeting these youth, we will produce (and encourage the production of) captivating films, in Japanese, that will draw them towards putting their faith in Jesus Christ. We will build bridges by telling great stories and by posing the crucial questions of life. A “New Media” approach will allow interactivity and worldwide distribution via the Internet, we will also utilize traditional means of distribution.
We will seek to leverage the “Power For Living” campaign by featuring several of the celebrities that took part in that project. We will also network, encourage, and empower a select group of individuals in the art of film-making, empowering them to put their Christianity into practice.
