The Church of the Masses

You're involved with a program called Act One that nurtures Christian talent. What can Christians do to support a Christian voice in Hollywood?

I do think everyone should take out a checkbook and write a check to Act One. I don't say this just as the emeritus Chair of the Board. Act One is doing the thing the Church should be doing, in that it's focused on people, not projects. Act One is about training the next generation of writers, executives, buyers, producers. It's giving them a responsible meter to evaluate projects and assess whether they will be good for people, or do harm.

So, Act Oneis about helping the next generation of artists understand what their responsibility is, and what the Beautiful is and means, and to aspire to that. If you train a writer, then you can impact a hundred projects. That's where our focus should be, in training people to be our voice in the business.
