My channel acts on the invitation of the Savior to be peacemakers. While different to channels that debate doctrine or historical misunderstandings of our faith, I believe my channel will showcase through action, face to face with others, the reality of our Christianity. If we as members of the Church lead out in being peacemakers, both in our personal lives and in the creation of content to that end, it will serve as the greatest advocacy and witness that Jesus Christ leads His church on the earth today. The world is desperate for peace. The demand has never been higher for people to lift up their voices to create unity instead of division. Reconciliation instead of contention. Myself and the other members that are regularly part of the content strive to exhibit peace and discover deeper perspectives of others. That we may "all come into the fold of Christ" "be edified together" being "made together in one, in Christ". Depicting that promotes the cause of the Church, because it's the cause of Christ.
“I urge you to choose to be a peacemaker, now and always. Brothers and sisters, we can literally change the world—one person and one interaction at a time.” - President Russell M. NelsonMy mission is to make peacemaking go viral! I aim to accomplish this in 3 main ways:1: Short form social media content (currently filming): These are "word on the street" style videos very similar to Creators like "School of Hard knocks". Some questions I ask people are "What's one thing you would do to create peace in the world today" and "What's an example of forgiveness or reconciliation from your life?" "What did that mean for you?". The goal is to get 1000's of examples of people from every walk of life and background sharing how to create peace - illustrating commonality and showcasing we aren't so different after all.2: Long form content - interviews, podcasts & personal stories (1 podcast filmed so far): This is where we go in depth and practice the "How to" of peacemaking. Among my first guests is a Latter Day Saint therapist with whom I discuss how to create peace in relationships, and how to scale that into society. Other guests may be those from groups and communities I hope to build bridges of understanding with, while sharing our own beliefs as Latter-Day Saints.3: Public Speaking and Events (2 official Gigs competed so far, with numerous additional speeches given via Toastmasters): This is a format where we can present the stories and learning on our journey to find peace together.Conclusion: Ultimately this is a movement, inspired by the invitation of the Savior extended through His servants. It's one I've felt to start for some time, and I can't hold that back any longer (Jer 20:9).*I have socials, but videos aren't posted yet - hoping to get some help on the editing side.
The message of peace - the message of Christ, is truly for everyone! If I was to name a target, it would be all those in this world who constantly feel the weight of the division and contention that swells around us. Those who are embattled and embittered toward their fellow man. Those who ask themselves the question: Can peace be found? We believe it can, and we're setting out to prove it. In business specific demographics, I'd lean on the teams expertise. My assumptions: Short form: Ages 16 - 35 since word on the street style content performs well with that demographic. Long Form: Ages 25 - 55 Speaking: Members of the LDS faith initially, for Shareability (They get the mission, and the invitations from Prophets may prompt them to share more than any other demographic)
100% Active, Firmly rooted in my testimony of the Savior. Fully sustaining of and having an active witness that the Prophets are called of God. Full testimony of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon, Plan of Salvation, Restoration, and Gospel of Jesus Christ.
