OUR MANDATE
Recently, from our research and studies, we have come to the realization that Christians in the entertainment industry have lost the primary purpose of which they were called, it has become a notable trend amongst gospel ministers to go diabolical in a bid to succeed while still hiding under the premise of true Christianity, so many unpleasant and appalling examples buttress our point and has created in us a burning desire to ensure efforts are made to the eradication of falsities in Christianity.
This is a trend we believe should by all means be corrected, and it is on this premise that we see the need for a retreat aimed at tackling pertinent issues in Christianity and the examples Christians should set in the world.
