Mission Statement: “To creatively
distribute the Gospel of Jesus Christ through popular mediums.”
SPEEK LYFE Entertainmentbegan operations August 7, 2004, founded by Lawrence “Emissary” Coles III, a graduate of AdelphiUniversity who recognized that
the entertainment mediums are wonderful way to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ. “Most people receive the gospel through traditional mediums such as church and bible studies.
The problem with that is the people who really need to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ never enter into a church to hear it.
So our goal at SPEEK LYFE Entertainment is to take the gospel outside of the four walls of the church and creatively distribute
it through popular mediums such as Film, television, radio, music and events.”
SPEEK LYFE Entertainment has quickly become a force in the gospel community. With programs such as SPEEK LYFE
TV and The LYFE Hour (radio program), SPEEK LYFE Entertainment is not only shifting the way the gospel can be presented, but
also changing the way the gospel can be heard. Emissary attributes SPEEK LYFE Entertainment success to the current condition
of entertainment industry. “Today’s popular mediums such as television and radio are filled with violence, sex
and crude behavior. Not only are Christians tired of being exposed to these things but even non- believers are finding these
condition intolerable. We at SPEEK LYFE Entertainment seek to be a catalyst for change. By presenting the gospel of Jesus
Christ through creative programming that entertains and enlightens, we believe we can draw the culture closer to Christ.”
SPEEK LYFE Entertainment seeks to redeem these mediums and restore them to their natural purpose which is to
glorify God. By using these mediums to distribute the gospel in a relevant and non threatening way, SPEEK LYFE will be able
to move the culture closer to God and further from the theology of self/material worship..
As a Christian based organization
SPEEK LYFE Entertainment understands that the only person who is the object of our worship is Jesus Christ, and it is only
through him that we can identify and find our true purpose.Colossians 4:5 sums
up our mission statement very plainly. The scripture reads "Walk in wisdom toward those
that are without redeeming the time."
