About Us

Emblem Media is a team of authors, illustrators, musicians and filmmakers dedicated to producing and rediscovering creative, original works that inspire and challenge culture.  The heart of our mission is to reflect the truth about what it means to be a human being made in the image of God. 

Regarding our name… it is derived from the 17th Century publishing practice of using an emblem or illustration to tell a moral tale.  Hundreds of years later, this concept of using a symbol—a picture—to suggest an idea, is still powerful in our image-driven culture.
