The mission of Faithspotting is to spot and share issues of life, faith, and theology presented in film, television, and music, then empower listeners to use these stories as tools to strengthen and apply faith in their everyday life.

The mission of Cross Roads is to help faith communities utilize film as a tool in ministry and faith development of members.

Throughout his ministry in local congregations, Kenny utilized his film degree by using films as parables in teaching and preaching.
