Area(s) of Interest or Expertise:
I'm excited to be serving on the Advisory Board for CCAS. :)

In 2001, I founded FrontGate Media which has become the #1 pop-culture media group in the Christian market. Among other things, FrontGate is the #1 place to reach Worship Leaders and Church Musicians.

FrontGate Media connects organizations to every demographic of Christian via our 15 million subscribers, 25 million monthly page views, 600,000 attendees at our events and in 45 million television households. We also provide Public Relations and Social Media services.

I am a founding partner at the design/manufacturing firm Extra Mile Merch; My Broken Palace providing hope and healing to the 15-25 age group; and Splatter, an ecommerce and fulfillment service.

In 1997 I brought Gofishnet.com, one of the first Christian music web sites, to market which was later purchased by Crosswalk.com. Previous experience includes sales, marketing and distribution with Frontline Music Group, and as a Music Buyer for Berean Christian Stores.

I am excited to currently serve on Advisory Boards for the Biola Media Conference, Christian Comic Arts Society, and Grove Center for the Arts.

I am active with the The Barnabas Group, Evangelical Christian Publishers Associationand Visual Story Network.
My Testimony: (We encourage members to share briefly about how their faith in Christ has impacted their lives.)
Came to know God in high school because Jesus thought a lot like me... ;) Am working to own His love for me.
Dream Job: (If you could have your dream job in the comics industry, what would it be?)
I have it: helping comics people and companies connect together and to the consumer audience they are trying to reach. :)
Favorite Comic Creators:
Anyone who is a Christian creating any kind of comics...

HEROES GO INDEPENDENT: CREATOR OWNED HEROES anthology debuts in June

I ran across this news today. Great idea and model that could help us our Christian creators and market. See the news summary below."American Muscle": a race against nothing across a post-apocalyptic America. "Triggergirl 6": the perfect assassin — except for her conscience. These are the first two titles showcased in the new Image Comics anthology, CREATOR OWNED HEROES, edited by Jimmy Palmiotti. "Creator-owned" isn't just a business model — it's also a publishing philosophy that focuses on…See More

May God Bless your dear soul, Scott.  I reviewed some of your links, and truly adore the Visual story network, because of the mission statement "a non-commercial dna".  Glory be to God for that intelligence in today's society!  I've been giving the witnessing away for 8 years...not many takers (hit counter).  Always looking to improve my media technology capabilities.  I'll be watching you and yours...thank you for befriending me!!!

CCAS at Comic-Con

The 'Spirituality in Comics' Panel from San Diego Comic-Con 2011

In comics, movies, and even Broadway musicals like “The Book Of Mormon”, spiritual themed work seems to be unexpectedly coming from the least religious of sources.

Panelists including SERGIO CARIELLO (The Action Bible), RUSSELL DALTON (Marvelous Myths: Marvel Superheroes and Everyday Faith), BUZZ DIXON (Serenity/Hits & Misses), and MIKE SHIELDS (Blue Blazes) discuss how a new generation of comics and pop culture are exploring timeless truths and also address the question “Is Mass Media Our New Church?”
