Our Hope For The New Year

Video Illustration

Produced by Freebridge Media

This has been a long year. A year of uncertainty, struggle’ pain. We’ve watched a virus take countless lives. People we knew. People we loved. Jobs have been lost, businesses have shut down and Churches have been forced to close their doors. We’ve witnessed division and violence. And we’ve felt the sting of racism…the deep heartache of hate. There have been times where it’s been difficult to see the hand of God. But even in the darkest of moments, He has been there. Faithful, present, and powerful. As a new year begins, we stand on a simple truth…Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings as eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint. We don’t know what this new year will hold, but we know it is held by a God whose mercies are new every morning. This is where we place our trust. This is the truth on which we stand. This is our hope…for the New Year.

Scripture: Isaiah 40:31, Lamentations 3:22-23

Seasons

Produced by Playback Media

This video was created in response to the many emotions, or seasons, experienced in a short time. The past few years have been tough on just about everyone, for various reasons. For many in your church, the past few years may have been filled with anxiety and fear. This artful and unique creative video expression will help your church understand that even when it doesn’t feel like God is close, He is. We all need the reminder that, no matter what season you're in, God is with you and for you.

This mini movie could be used as a visual kick-off to a series or time of worship. It could also be used as an illustration for your sermon.

The hope and prayer from the producer of this video is that the visuals would connect with those going through dark seasons, but, by the end of the piece, people would be reminded that God is with you, and there is light in the darkness. This is not your typical mini movie, and we hope that you watch and feel the emotion as it brings you through several seasons in a unique, visually compelling way.
