Christian Actor Post 3: Finding Community on Both Coasts
Are you a Christian actor in NYC or LA wanting to plug in with a like-minded community? Or, are you looking for online resources to address your questions and your curiosity? I recommend both of these ministries:
In New York City: Redeemer Actors Group
http://www.faithandwork.org/actors
Part of Redeemer Presbyterian Church's Center for Faith and Work, the Actors Group meets monthly for free dinner and activities like acting warm-ups, Bible study or interviews with working actors. There are also workshops, monologue slams, and meet-ups with the other Arts Ministry groups. A great way to find godly support and encouragement, and a place to wrestle over the big issues.
In Los Angeles: Arts & Entertainment Ministries
http://www.a-e-m.org/
I have less personal contact with this group, but was made aware of them when one of the leaders, Joel Pelsue, gave a sermon at Pacific Crossroads Church. I was thoroughly impressed with both his strong theological foundation and his passionate desire for the city to know Jesus (he started crying for LA at one point). They seem to have all kinds of programs going on, and their website is a helpful resource in itself.

Do you know of other good groups/resources for Christian actors?
