Christian Video Productions was started in 2003 by Filmmaker/missionary Sergei Luzginov with the goal of spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ to the world using various relevant media resources and talents.

Sergei has worked in the entertainment industry as an actor in Los Angeles for nearly 9 years and has been a video Producer since 2003. As an actor, his credits include such films as: K-19: The Widowmaker (2002) starting Harrison Ford; Night All Day; Rollerball; The Agency and the The District; and other films produced by WB, Universal, CBS, ABC, Paramount Pictures and many others.

Learning productions from both sides of the camera, working with the best, inspired him to continually think outside of the box and to go beyond the cliché to see new things. 

Since becoming a follower of Jesus Christ in 2001, Sergei Luzginov has been passionate about spreading the Gospel message to unbelievers through the visual arts. He had a unique opportunity to work as a missionary among a group of artists in Moscow, Russia (2003-2006).  Upon his return to the US, he became a missionary with North American Mission Board, as a Russian ethnic outreach worker and church planter in Cincinnati, Ohio (2008-2009).

We want to help Christian organizations succeed in the calling God has for them in communicating God’s message in a way that brings relevance to the listener.

Over the years, we have helped many Christian churches, missions and organizations with materializing their vision into clear visual messages. Our clientele includes International Mission Board missionaries, South Baptist Convention of Ohio, North American Mission Board, Baptist Association of Greater Cincinnati, and many Christian churches.  We have experience in producing documentary films, commercials, fundraising videos, conference videos and reality shows. In the market place we have produced videos for Procter & Gamble, Prat Display, At Work On Purpose and many others.

We believe that God is starting to move in a mighty way through the arts and media. When God calls us to something, He also partners us with the right people to help bring it to completion.

The world is changed by God through dreamers and visionaries.

From Sergei:

In the last 10 years I have seen major changes in the way that information can be spread to nearly the entire world.  In one day news can be spread to more homes throughout the world that ever dreamed imaginable.  In the last 6 thousand years nothing like this was ever thought possible.  God has built for us new channels, strategies, resources and mediums to use.  Today with one click from your home you can impact different cultures and distant souls.  The one question that constantly comes to my mind is; are we equipped for the job?

Are we producing and spreading the Gospel using 21st century tools, such as television and  Internet do we still think that using magnetic tapes and our church pulpits will get the job done?  In Jesus' day entertainers and preachers always used creative ways to stand out. The most important one was traveling to locations where crowds were gathered. Today crowds gather in homes in front of televisions and computer screens for entertainment and information. The church has separated the crowd from her messages by not going to those locations. Of the few Christian television resources that are out there, most appear fake, hokey, and melodramatic and are not very appealing to the unbeliever.  

Are we using the right tools for reaching out to the billions of televisions and computers of those people who would never darken the door of a church?  Are we using creative, colorful, attractive ways that stand out and are expected by this culture?  Or does our gospel presentation look black and white in a world of almost limitless color. Do we still expect people to come to us instead of doing what Jesus said and taking the Gospel to a lost and dying world?
 
The Gospel is alive and well and should not be stuck in a time warp.  We should be using all of the new technological tools that are at our disposal.  If we settle for less, then we are not giving God our best.  We are asking Him to settle for something that is second rate and presenting an already compromised message.
