DALLAS, Dec. 5 /Christian Newswire/ -- How do we reach an iPod, MTV, YouTube generation with God's message of hope? How do we stay true to Biblical wisdom and still relate to people wrapped up in an un-Godly world? NeedHim Ministries has met the challenge with a series of video spots that take the "etched in stone" Commandments of God and put them in the reality of our troubled world.

"Some will call the TV spots edgy. Others will be startled at the graphics. And many will relate to the feelings and emotions the spots address. For those who know the distortion and despair of our culture today, the message of the UNREAL spots is hope. As the characters remind the viewer ...through Jesus, I am real again," said Drew Dickens, NeedHim Ministries' Executive Director.

Beginning today, MTV will air the series of ten television "commercials" based on the Ten Commandments. The spots will air in a national four-week campaign through the DISH Network and reach as many as 1.5 million viewers in the coveted 18-34 year-old market. The NRB Network, broadcast on Direct TV, will begin airing the series the week of December 10. The spots are also available to the public on YouTube (search 888-NEEDHIM).
