Athanatos Christian Ministries (ACM) wants to inspire young Christians to take up the pen and promote the Christian world view through the pen. ACM believes that the the secular world is constantly promoting itself through the arts and that Christians should be prepared to fight back. Thus, the Gospel of Christ should be communicated through music, movies, plays, art, literature … and poetry. The purpose of this writing contest is to create a culture of quality writing reflecting a Christian world view.
