“There’s something about storytelling that really breaks into the core of our beings by bringing various things into focus which ultimately captivates our minds and resonates with us in so many compelling ways.” ~ Darryl Bradford.
I’m delighted to share the news that filmmaker Darryl Bradford Jr. has joined the staff at Puritan Reformed Seminary as our Video Producer and Editor.
Darryl comes to PRTS by way of his own journey and story. He grew up in Detroit and nearby suburbs as a professing Christian with a loving family. Despite being exposed to the Gospel he grew disillusioned to the faith upon graduating from Michigan State University.
However, with his major concentration in Video Production, it was his love for visual media that led him to a series of videos that confronted him with his sin and his need of a Savior.
Now being rescued, an overwhelming desire to share Christ with others burned in his soul and the Lord simultaneously began opening up opportunities in his profession.
His hard work in developing his craft and desire for storytelling resulted in receiving 2 Emmy Awards for his documentary film work.
His passion for God’s Word, people and visual arts has now led him to pursue theological studies and also join the staff as Video Producer/Editor at PRTS where he will be involved in filming lectures, producing educational films tailored for distance learning, telling the story of PRTS to the wider world through film, as well as making short videos that share our Reformed and Puritan heritage with the wider world.
His wife of 8 years and 3 young children are members of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church and they look forward to this new adventure and the Lord’s leading in Grand Rapids. Here’s Darryl’s demo reel and another sample of his work below that.
