What is Beloved Stories?

2026 is our second year in operation. While 2025 was full of stories that will be remembered for years to come, we have only just begun.

Our Process

  • Group of people gathered outdoors, standing close together with eyes closed and heads bowed, participating in a moment of prayer or reflection.

    Discover the Story

    Every movement starts with people on a mission, driven to see change and goodness flourish. We focus on grassroots organizations and ministries embodying mercy, justice, and hope—those whose stories of redemption, healing, and compassion can truly benefit from a film as a resource.

    Capture & Create

    We believe every story deserves excellence. Our professional filmmakers and editors craft films that reflect the value of the work being done, eliminating the limitations of low-budget storytelling. Through listening, prayer, and partnership, we shape the story and plan the production together.

    Share

    Once the film is complete, its impact begins. Viewers discover, donors engage, and organizations gain tools to grow their mission. Selected films may enter festivals, honoring artistry while opening doors for these stories to reach new and unexpected audiences.

FAQ

  • While we’re upfront about our vision to display “God’s Glory in Grass Roots,” we don’t limit the stories we tell to just faith-based ones. We believe that even if an organization is not Christian, the goodness of God can still evidently be displayed. So, if you are not a faith-based organization, but still doing mercy and justice work in under-resourced communities, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

  • Beloved Stories only partners with non-profits. We do not take on clients, and we are not available for hire. Our films are only available through granting them as a gift to the ministries, charities, and non-profits that our board feels led to partner with.

    FOUNDER & PRESIDENT

    “With making films since 2013, I understand the power of story and what it requires to do it well. I value the excellence of high quality production, all while slowing down to tell the stories that may be unseen or unfamiliar to many. My desire is that Beloved Stories would uphold that exact value, in turn blessing all that enter in partnership.”
