Who hasn’t been on a mission trip and captured a genuine and inspiring “kingdom moment” with the lens of their camera? At any given moment around the world are thousands of missionaries, hundreds of ministries, and dozens of cameras freezing time and harboring memories of God’s love in action.
It’s what inspired this photo contest that has ignited a rage of popularity. For the next few weeks, you can enter your captured moments in the “Kingdom Come” Missions Photo Contest.
Prizes are $3,000 for first place; $1,000 for second; $500 for third; and $250 for fourth and fifth place. And the top photos will be placed in a coffee table book that will help inspire missions and spread the vision of our world as Christ Jesus sees it.
