10. “I wish I’d met you 25 years ago.”
Feb 2011

11. 6 Major Studios
Mostly operated by secular Jews

12. Corruption among the Studios
“The reason you never see one story in print about profits made from a
motion picture is because there isn't any. (Not to be confused with a
film's highly publicized box office gross). The entire system is
designed to seize creative control from the producer and steal every
cent of profit. To the major Hollywood Distributor, it's a game. To the
film maker, it's their life.” -- Industry Insider

14. Church Abandoned Hollywood
Dr. William Dyrness, professor of theology and
culture at Fuller Seminary, tells of a producer at
Twentieth- Century Fox in the 1930s. The
producer wrote letters to several evangelical
colleges, asking them to send their graduates to
become screenwriters, to help make good,
wholesome movies. The response was alarming.
One college president wrote back saying he’d
rather send their young people to hell itself than
send them to Hollywood.

15. Battle for Hollywood, Ronald
Reagan and Communism

16. “Of all the arts, the cinema is the most
important for us, communists, to keep
the people under control. (from Lenin's
instruction to Dzerzhinsky, the founder of KGB)
- Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
“The prize will be the complete control of
the greatest medium of communication in
history.” -Herb Sorrell, Communist Party Activist,
1946

17. Communist Party in
Hollywood
• Active since 1935
• Believed if they could capture Hollywood
labor unions, they could influence the
type of pictures being produced.
• Take leadership in intellectual groups -
directors, writers, and performers.
Reagan was primary tipping point to defeat
communists

18. “People who believe they know the truth need to realize
that cultural influence requires more than knowing the
story; it requires telling the story thoughtfully and
artistically. Never has there been a greater need for wise,
gifted storytellers who understand the story we are in and
can communicate a better way gracefully and truthfully.”
Dick Staub,
The Culturally Savvy Christian

the top almost
overnight as he would

Johnny Enlow
Pregnancy: the child in your womb will effect an entire generation.

29. “I pray before I go on
stage with my whole
band and everybody.”

US magazine

31. What I have learned about Hollywood
• “Starving artists” isn’t a perception, it is reality for many in
Hollywood – Very small % make it big
• Difficult to trust. Takes time to build.
• Difficult spiritual culture to live in. Need relationships to
survive spiritually - must be called
• “A la carte” Christianity
• City of orphans

32. The higher you go up a mountain the
more demons assigned to you—
spiritual warfare
For a great and effective door has opened
to me, and there are many adversaries.
1 Cor 16:9
• Whitney Houston
• Britney Spears
• Katy Perry

34. Hey Pops
Yes I did. How is South Africa? Thinking of u everyday. The
testimonies keep pouring in. A radical, radical shift occurred and a
new level of friendships and family is rapidly growing. For the first
time in my life as a Christian I am experiencing the "as one" factor
because people are realizing we will not make it on our own. Wow. I
can't tell you how much you and Ron impacted this beautiful
Hollywood of ours. The biggest testimony for me is how everyone
experienced the Father’s love through you guys. In a city of so many
orphans both your deep love and compassion really is ALL the
difference because people are so used to being misused and abused
and taken advantage of and you guys just love love love. I'm so
privileged to have such amazing spiritual fathers. Thank you Pops for
loving my friends so much.

35. Eric Liddell was the winner
of the men's 400 metres at
the 1924 Summer Olympics
in Paris. However, Liddell's
Olympic story gained
international attention when
he refused to run on Sunday
for his faith convictions. His
story was depicted in the
Oscar-winning 1981 film
Chariots of Fire.

38. Tim Tebow
When the NFL would not let Tim Tebow write John 3:16 on his eye
black, the Lord broadcast it in a way that no mere human could have
pulled off. Not only did Tebow throw for 316 yards in their playoff win
against Pittsburg (2011), but he averaged 31.6 yards a pass, and the
rating for the last part of the game was even 31.6. Because of this,
over the next few days more than 110 million people searched the
Internet to find out what John 3:16 said.
Think about that. No Christian would need to Google John 3:16
to see what it says, so these were not likely believers. This may have
been the single greatest witness in history, and there will be a harvest
from all of those seeds that were planted.

43. Using Football to Make a Political Statement

45. May 23, 2018
• The National Football League announced Wednesday that all
players who are on the field when the national anthem is heard
before a game must stand — or they can choose to remain in
the locker room without penalty.
• Teams will be subject to a fine if a player disobeys, NFL
Commissioner Roger Goodell said at a news conference.

46. Summary
• Arts & Entertainment & media are the cultural mountains
that most define values and beliefs in culture.
• God is moving in Hollywood. He is raising up change
agents in this industry.
• Difficult spiritual climate. Few really make it.
• Some have used their notoriety to bring glory to Jesus
Christ
• We must pray for those in all forms of media and
entertainment. .
