About Us - Public Praise

OUR MISSION

Mission Statement of Public Praise TV
Public Praise is a lifestyle magazine format show that unapologetically intertwines faith and culture.
The mission of Public Praise is to showcase individuals with amazing gifts, talents, and stories who are not ashamed to use them for the Kingdom of God. We acknowledge that our God-given ability to create does not start at the pulpit and ends at the church’s door. We are called to be world changers…to be on the top of our rightful mountain of influence and proudly proclaim the greatness of Christ in us! In a world where broadcasting your faith is frowned upon… we broadcast to glorify the One that we are Proud to Proclaim and Never Ashamed.

Mission Statement of Public Praise Media, LLC
Public Praise Media LLC's mission is to exceed customer expectations by being the leading provider of affordable, responsive, value-added services in the audiovisual industry.

At Public Praise Media LLC we truly are a “client-minded” company. This means that we work diligently to relate to our clients and understand their overall goals and objectives so that we can deliver professional events and projects that live up to their expectations. We partner with our clients throughout the entire process ranging from pre-planning logistics, to on-site service and support during the event, and finally, to post-event follow up to ensure that we are in tune with our clients and their needs every step of the way. We feel that working with a partner you know and trust makes all the difference.

In addition, our goal is to equip and mentor businesses and churches with the tools to help them be successful with their audio and visual needs by facilitating training sessions and workshops for sound and editing and consultation of social media and marketing strategies.

During her younger years as growing up as a pastor's daughter Jenn Thompson, began to experience issues with her self esteem, confidence, appearance, identity, friends, and family. As she went through many personal defeats she continued to look inward for answers of who she was. She discovered Jesus in 2000 and how exciting it was to build a personal relationship with Him in her own way.
After years of watching many awesome and beautiful women on YouTube, in January of 2014, she started a YouTube channel, that would show girls that they can be radiantly beautiful, confident and passionate about Jesus all at the same time. She pursues this vision and strives to impact the lives of as many young girls and women that God allows.
