Today I would like to share my reflection in one of the writings of Paul. In the book of Galatians, we find a beautiful description of the fruit of the Spirit.

Galatians 5:22, 23 says, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control..” Gal. 5:22,23

These qualities are not mere attributes we strive to possess, but rather the outgrowth of a life transformed by the Holy Spirit.

Let us also consider the Spirit of Prophecy's words, reminding us that the purpose of our Christian journey is to bear fruit and reproduce Christ’s character in ourselves and others. Christ Object Lessons page 67 says, "The object of the Christian life is fruit bearing--the reproduction of character in the believer, that it may be reproduced in others."  COL 67. Obviously, Ellen White talks about Galatians 5:22, 23.

Let's examine one of most important verses in the Bible- John 15:5

Jesus says, "I am the vine, and you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will bear much fruit; for you can do nothing without me."

Here, Jesus portrays Himself as the vine, the source of nourishment and life, while His followers are the branches that depend on Him for sustenance and productivity. This parable of the vine and the branches suggests that without a vital connection to Christ, believers are incapable of achieving meaningful spiritual growth and effectiveness.

When it comes to media ministries, video is better than any other medium to communicate the gospel. Video is starting to replace the written word and now, seems everyone has instant access to filming, editing and publishing videos. I have done a lot of video editing software testing myself and I found out the best and easiest video editing software that just stands out.

AVS Video Editor 

For me it's the best and the easiest video editing software ever.... It nails the ease of use with great help resources and a very straightforward interface that almost works like a wizard guiding you from step to step. This video editing software offers multiple learning videos that show you how to use it to its fullest potential.

The interface, features, and controls cover all the basics, and are standard. If you’ve used another video editor before, you’ll learn AVS quickly. If you haven’t, an exceptional library of video tutorials makes learning very easy.

AVS helps you edit videos in a very traditional workflow, and its core functionality is good. And you can sequence as many videos as you’d like in that main video track, and multiple video overlay tracks are supported.

Importing is very simple: You can import media files, capture from an attached camera, or capture your desktop screen. AVS also has a basic media library that allows you to keep track of the various media you’ve imported. And the program comes with a good library of transitions and effects, as well as support for in-app voice over recording, picture-in-picture, titles, and a DVD menu creator.

Most importantly, AVS’s tool excels at supporting numerous formats and conversions. We had no problems when testing this with different formats.

For me AVS wins the biggest points for its ease of use and simplicity.  It’s just simply the best out there.

Well I choose movie -making. You might wonder why I'm so passionate about movie-making project. Let me tell you that filming a movie unite the church members. We always have devotional before we start filming. We pray together before and after we film. We invite non-believers as our movie casts to play minor roles. There, we build friendship with them. Then we watch together what we have done after the filming. We all have memories we can never forget. They become part of our family. They get and understand the message.

After that, we will invite them for one week evangelistic meeting.

How About Radio Station?

Well, I was dreaming of a radio station for the Mien outreach ministry before God led me to the movie-making ministry. But as what I have heard and see, some radio ministries were successful and some weren't. The reasons are

1. They lack professional crews

2. Putting up a radio station is very costly.

3. The maintenance is very high since we have to pay the DJ and radio workers.

4. Some countries are very strict and only few can obtain permit to operate.  However, radio ministry has its place in God's work. In fact, many came to the feet of Jesus because of our radio program. But what I like about movie ministry is that

(1.) The cost of production is low. If you are reaching a hilltribe group, like Miens, where most of them have already Mien clothes to use for the shooting, then that would lessen the cost of production.

(2.) The filming production takes only a short period of time and the movie you produce is forever!

(3.) As what I mentioned earlier, every church member will be involved in the production. The church will be strengthened spiritually.

(4.) No need to obtain permit except if we are shooting in a very sensitive places.

(5.) No maintenance and we are not paying monthly bill for electricity and salary for workers.

(6.) And most of all, movie ministry has no limitation of its reach while radio station depends on the antenna to expand its coverage. Though the movie ministry needs funding to buy lots of blank DVDs and CDs and gas for the mission trips, people can re-watch them over and over any time since they have their own hard copy. It can also be easily shared to anyone around them and if the communication research is true that people tend to remember 20 percent of what they hear, 30 percent of what they see, 50 percent of what they hear and see. Then it looks like movie ministry is more effective.
