Founders Award

Biola University Hands Media Expert

Ted Baehr Its Media Founders Award

Hollywood, Calif. – The Media Task Force at Biola University has rewarded family and Christian advocate Dr. Ted Baehr, founder and publisher of Movieguide®:  The Family/Biblical Guide to Movies & Entertainment, its Media Founders Award.


Dr. Baehr helped found the Media Task Force and the Annual Media Conference at Biola University, an Evangelical Christian college located in La Mirada, Calif.

“This is a great honor,” Dr. Baehr said. “The work we started at Biola to redeem the values of the mass media of entertainment has grown tremendously over the years. I’m blessed by God to have been a part of that work.”

Dr. Baehr is also founder and chairman of the Christian Film & Television Commission® (CFTVC) ministry and advocacy group, the sister organization to Movieguide® (www.movieguide.org). CFTVC and Movieguide® are an international non-profit ministry, advocacy group, and watchdog dedicated to “redeeming the values of the entertainment industry by influencing industry executives and by informing and equipping the public about the influence of the entertainment media.”

Each year for the past 20 years, Movieguide® releases its Annual report to the Entertainment Industry, a comprehensive financial report showing that audiences here and overseas prefer movies, home videos, and television programs with family-friendly content reflecting Christian, biblical, and conservative values and ethics.


Now more than ever we’re bombarded by darkness in media, movies, and TV. Movieguide® has fought back for almost 40 years, working within Hollywood to propel uplifting and positive content. We’re proud to say we’ve collaborated with some of the top industry players to influence and redeem entertainment for Jesus. Still, the most influential person in Hollywood is you. The viewer.

What you listen to, watch, and read has power. Movieguide® wants to give you the resources to empower the good and the beautiful. But we can’t do it alone. We need your support.

You can make a difference with as little as $7. It takes only a moment. If you can, consider supporting our ministry with a monthly gift. Thank you.
