Hollywood Exposed: Is God Anywhere In Sight?
Karen and Jim expose inside secrets of the TV & film industry
– from Christian perspective. They reveal exciting stories
of how God is actually alive and well in Hollywood. You’ll
also gain insight of how you can have an eternal impact on this
world’s most influential mission field.
Talk About Jesus Without Freaking Out
The Covells help audiences learn easy steps to effectively talk
about Jesus – without freezing up, freaking out or wimping
out. You’ll gain confidence, overcome fear, and see how easily
this can all be done without freaking yourself or anyone else out.
(Based on their book by the same title.) As Hollywood storytellers
themselves, Karen and Jim explain the power of “Their Story,
Your Story, His Story” and how our stories can all be used
by the Lord to impact others.
The Power of Asking Questions
Asking questions is the most powerful form of communication. The
greatest way to influence others is to ask questions. And the most
effective way to lead someone to the Lord is by asking questions.
The Covells show how asking questions is fun, low risk and exciting
when talking about the Lord and building personal relationships.
And the art of asking questions can be learned in a one hour talk
or a week-end conference.
Better Sex Through Prayer – For Christian married
couples only
Prayer is the most powerful gift that God has given us. Karen and
Jim talk boldly about how prayer will not only change our personal
lives but it will strengthen our marriages and create an intimacy
between us and our spouse, our children and/or our friends and other
family members that nothing else can do. The Covells also give suggestions
on how to make prayer both creative and fun. Great prayer is even
more intimate than great sex.
JAMES COVELL began his career writing music immediately after graduating in music composition from USC. He has been working ever since scoring, songwriting, conducting and arranging in every medium. James has written scores for many feature films, including DENACE THE MENACE CHRISTMAS, THE LIST and LEFT BEHIND, recorded with the London Symphony, based on the best selling book series of the same name. That Soundtrack CD, and twelve other soundtracks are available on his website at www.JamesCovell.com. Along with his work in film, James has worked for all four of the major networks scoring Pilots, TV Movies, Specials and Series. Currently running are his themes on the new Veria Health Network and two TLC series, U.S. MARSHALS and THE HUNT FOR AMAZING TREASURES, along with his score on the TV Special CHANGED LIVES: MIRACLES OF THE PASSION. James has also written a full-scale musical play entitled A HOUSE DIVIDED and an Orchestral Trumpet Concerto. His other commissioned Orchestral works premiered with great success by the Denver Symphony. James lives in Valley Village, California with his wife and their two Wonder Boys, Christopher age 17 and 13-year-old Cameron.
Karen Covell is a television producer and has worked on
various TV shows and Specials throughout the years, including most
recently, “Headliners And Legends With Matt Lauer,”
“America’s Throwaway Children” and two Shari
Lewis children’s videos. She has just completed a documentary
called “The Hollywood Crisis.”
Karen and Jim spend quite a bit of time in ministry in Hollywood
and they speak, both as a team and individually, around the country
to churches, colleges and private functions across the country on
their three favorite topics; “How to Talk About Jesus Without
Freaking Out,” “The Power of Prayer” and “Hollywood:
The World’s Most Influential Mission Field.” They
are on the forefront of spreading the unique vision that Christians
around the world should pray for the “Hollywood tribe,”
as a key to transforming the world’s most influential mission
field.
Jim and Karen are two of the three co-authors of two books, “How to Talk About Jesus Without Freaking Out” and “The Day I Met God” both published by Multnomah Publishers. They are still planning to someday write their third book about marriage called “To Have and To Hold On.”
Jim’s non-musical passion are Mrs. Fields cookies, his girlfriend Karen (who he’s been married to for 24 years) and their two wonder boys Christopher (age 17) and Cameron (age 13). Karen is just all around passionate. You can check the Hollywood Prayer Network website at www.HollywoodPrayerNetwork.org.
