Hi all... I'm happy to say that I'm almost done the e-zine. It will have 29 pages, and I hope to host it on a Wordpress blog. I really want to get a domain name for it, though this probably won't happen until after the magazine is out.

Now, for the big day: The e-zine will be officially out on

DECEMBER 6th

I'm really excited. It's been so much fun... I've honestly loved every moment of writing articles, making layouts, and emailing contributors, and listening to good music... I can definitely imagine doing this as a job. But the funy thing is that I never expected this to be more than an idea, a dream. I never expected to have 29 real, true pages saved to my hard disk... moreso in just two months time.

Obviously, God had the biggest role to play in all of this, He was my Managing Editor and overlooked the whole project to make it come together into a whole. So I thank Him and all of you for your work and contributions. I am so excited about thsi project and can't wait till you guys see it!!

Hi all! Here is a sneak peak at my 4-page poetry feature. All of the poems except for the first one were selected from a bunch of great writings entered into my contest on AllPoetry.com. I'd like to thank everyone for participating!

Thanks also to 'Passions Promise' for donating 1000 points to make my contest bigger and better than it could have ever been without her help! :)

Hi all! Here is a little preview of one of two photography pages that will be on the e-zine... thanks to the God-given talent of some wonderful teen photographers in Flickr.

The second page will be up soon. :)

All of the images are watermarked, I'll take off the watermarks in the actual publication.

I'm very honoured to have two very talented singers participate in this issue of Multi Media Ministry. Crystal and Natasha ("Tashi") Poholka have sent in their wonderful interview answers and will be getting a feature in my magazine. I've known Tashi for quite some time over the internet, and she was one of the first people that came to mind when I was wondering what to include in my magazine... she has her own online magazine called Pure Talent, which was a big inspiration to me in making this one.

I'm really happy to have something about classical music in my magazine, because it gives some variety from the "mainstream" teenage Christianity. originality in this issue is something I've really been struggling with, so this article is really going to help.

Above is a screenshot of the feature so far (the text is blurred out on purpose... you'll have to wait to read! ;). Comments are encouraged!
