Gideon Media Arts Conference & Film Festival
May 31-June 4, 2009
LifeWay Conference Center, Ridgecrest, NC
Our Mission
To spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ through all types of media.
The Gideon was started to give Christians who are interested in the media arts a place to encourage their talents, a venue to meet, learn, network and get advice from experts in the industry, and the opportunity to develop working and personal relationships that extend long after the Gideon is over.
Our faculty is prayerfully considered and wonderfully selected by God. They are comprised of Christian producers, directors, writers, musicians, actors, artists, DJ's, performers, speakers and teachers, and are chosen for the Gideon, not only for their accomplishments and expertise, but for their servant's heart. We are blessed and humbled that these incredibly talented individuals are designing classes and workshops to stretch your mind and help you discover the path that God has placed in front of you.
"But when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, you will receive power and will tell people about me everywhere." ~ Acts 1:8

Quotes from Conference Attendees
"Truly Life Changing. There is no exaggeration in this statement - simply put. For me, I have gained wonderful friendships, laughed harder than I had in a long time. Made great professional contacts and very special and genuine personal connections. I came to Gideon afraid to have any expectations and I left with blessings abundant. Having met godly people who strive to serve and exalt the one true God through the arts! I have met my brethren. What a wonderful gift!" ~ Love in Christ, Van"
"I would say the sense at Gideon was a feeling of the begining of something big, not just with the festival but with those attending... God has brought us together to make a difference... And we will make the difference... Plus I made lots of new friends." : ) ~ Angus
"God's presence at and blessing on the Gideon were evident in so many ways. I have no doubt He plans to do a powerful work through the talented people He brings to this conference-not because we are great, but because He is great. I'm excited to see what He'll do in the years ahead, as we seek His will for the Gideon. I have a feeling we're going to discover the Gospel going out to the world in whole new ways." ~ Ann
