Odyssey Networks Appoints New ON Scripture – The Bible™ Project Director
NEW YORK – February 24, 2015 – On Scripture-The Bible™, the multimedia preaching resource that combines top biblical scholarship and weekly videos with current events, is proud to announce the appointment of Selby Ewing as its new project director. Selby joins the project from the United Methodist Women national office where she worked in marketing and communications for seven years. She brings a wealth of video production, marketing and communications experience.
On Scripture- The Bible™ already reaches half a million people a month and Selby’s expertise as a marketing and communications professional will help expand this exciting project even further, boosted recently by a grant of $1.25 million from Lilly Endowment Inc. and earlier support from the Henry Luce Foundation.
“I am excited to have an opportunity to work with the award-winning team at Odyssey Networks, said Selby. “I look forward to getting to know all those who have built ON Scripture – The Bible™ into a dynamic resource and to helping guide and grow the project.”
Nick Stuart, President and CEO says “Selby’s great connections and commitment to showing the power of Scripture in our lives makes her a wonderful addition to the ON Scripture – The Bible™ team. By adding her energy and creativity, we can help take the work of our highly-respected Bible scholars and video producers to even more people with this free weekly resource linking the Word and the world.”
