‘We Must Push Forward’: NRB President Continues to Advocate for Christian Communicators

By Movieguide® Contributor

The president of the National Religious Broadcasters Association is weighing in on its future in today’s “golden age of communication.”

“NRB has been around for 80 years. Last year, we celebrated our 80th anniversary,” NRB president Troy Miller told The Christian Post. “Our primary mission is to be advocates for Christian communicators in the public space. We work hard on regulations and laws across this country to ensure they’re fair and inclusive.”

NRB is a “nonpartisan, international association of Christian communicators” who connect with millions around the world and work to “protect the free speech rights of our members by advocating those rights in governmental, corporate, and media sectors,” per their website.

Miller continued, “We’ve brought NRB to the best financial position in its history. That’s really set us up for our future goals, which is to expand the influence of NRB beyond just what’s going on at Capitol Hill because a lot of work today happens in the corporate C suites and boardrooms of companies out there that we really have to work with and help them understand what the Christian community is all about.”

He shared that NRB plans to continue to be “very involved” in politics, supporting candidates and lawmakers who share their values, as well as advocating for Christian communicators. 

In today’s world, where we are more connected than ever, Miller said he hopes to encourage Christian leaders to utilize the technology available and share the Gospel. 

“Technology can be used for good or bad. As Christians, we must push forward and take ownership of these platforms for the good of communities and the proclamation of the Gospel,” he explained.

Many Christians are harnessing the power of technology to share their faith and spread the Gospel. Fast Company reported that Christian apps frequently top the App Store charts, pointing to Hallow as a prime example. 

Hallow boasts “over 22 million downloads,” and has run ad campaigns featuring stars like Mark Wahlberg and Gwen Stefani.
