Executives for Rejoice!, the revolutionary mobile phone gospel TV show announced that they have tapped Nationwide Ministries to handle their outreach marketing efforts to ministers and ministries across the country.

As the first gospel television network for mobile phones, Rejoice! seeks to offer ministries the ‘missing link' in their current media efforts, thereby allowing them to reach the saved and unsaved alike in the estimated 40+ hours that most people cannot access television, radio or the internet to supplement their reading of the Bible. Rejoice! will feature broadcast quality streaming video sermons from ministers domestically and internationally, available on a wide variety of phone handsets across almost all carrier networks. Since the number of mobile phones nationally exceeds the number of iPods and iPhones by a 10:1 margin (and increasing), the service is slated to be available to a
much wider audience than podcasting and will not require purchase of any additional equipment so long as the users phone can play multimedia content.

“The mobile phone is the most personal and ubiquitous multimedia device of the past decade...” said Rejoice! Vice Chairman Ru-El Burford. “In launching Rejoice! we've brought the dynamism of the preached Word to the mobile phone platform and given ministries the opportunity to literally put God's Word in the palm of peoples' hands.” He continued, “to effectively make the thousands of ministries aware of this opportunity, we felt that Nationwide under the leadership of Nathaniel Jiles, was the best choice given their excellent track record and substantial number of relationships in the Christian community.”

The effort is scheduled to be rolled out in two parts; the first to reach out to ministers across the country to encourage their participation in the premiere season and the second to present the network itself and monthly subscription opportunities to a national audience . “What's next is now! Finally my brethren Rejoice! This is tomorrow's technology today..,” said Nationwide Ministry Founder Nathaniel Jiles. “We are truly excited to be a part of this ground breaking experience sure to aid in catapulting the gospel to yet further dimensions. This new movement mechanism is definitively a‘greater work' and we look forward to connecting the Kingdom with this phenomenal new vehicle”.

The outreach effort will launch immediately and is expected to run until Fall 2008.
