Advancing God’s Kingdom Through Film

Regent partners empower future filmmakers to impact culture for Christ.

From Navy service member to Kingdom filmmaker—that’s the journey of Armond Brundridge (CAS ’26), a senior in Regent University’s Cinema- Television (CTV) Program.

“A growing childhood interest in filmmaking, but an uncertain sense of the timing, led me to enlist in the Navy to pay for film school,” Armond explains. Near the end of his four-year, active-duty contract in Norfolk, Virginia, he had an “intimate and sobering encounter with the Kingdom of God through the on-base ministry there.”

“I made a commitment to trust Jesus with my life,” he recalls. “I realized God had used my time in the Navy to bring me into something of a ‘spiritual greenhouse’ for developing a closer relationship with Him.

The decision, therefore, to remain in ‘good soil’ by going to Regent University became crystal clear.”

Your investment is preparing Armond to shine the light of Christ through film.

“What’s great about the undergraduate CTV program at Regent University is its holistic approach to learning the craft. By the time graduation year comes around, the vast amount of technical, professional, and spiritual growth will have thoroughly equipped me to become a ‘Kingdom builder’ in the world of media.”

This summer, Armond served as an intern at the Virginia Film Office in Richmond: “Already, I have been on location scouts and on sets with professional film crews. I gained valuable insight into the local and international film industry and contributed to the film office’s mission.” Armond understands the vital role Regent donors play in his and other students’ success. “Thank you so much for your generous contributions,” he says. “I hope God continues to use your donations to equip the next generation of Jesus imitators for the glory and advancement of His Kingdom to the ends of the Earth!”
