Creating Hunger for Bible-based Media Products
— Joel Craig with Madelyn Beltz

Now they are creating products to create a hunger that will lead people to open up Christian media.

Staff Corner — Ricky DiMartino
2020 has been a year full of change, and the IMS-Waxhaw office is no exception! Notably, we have welcomed new staff members (meet one of them below), and several have changed positions in the department. Here’s a summary.
Earlier this year, Jon Barker transitioned from his role in IMS Training to become the Operations Director for IMS-Waxhaw. Later, Jo Clifford became the International IMS Coordinator, and the two (Jon and Jo) cover the duties formerly performed by Greg Henderson. Joe Rider joined the IMS-Waxhaw location as the new Productions Director, and Jim Doll transitioned into the role of IMS-Waxhaw Office Manager.
We thank and welcome everyone who has begun a new role!
Ricky says he was born in the land of technology and coffee and mediocre baseball: Seattle, Washington. Well, technically, it was the suburb Bellevue. When he was 10, his family moved to the land of horses and bluegrass: Kentucky. It was there that he met his wife while in college at Asbury University. She took him home with her and ever since then he's been in the land of NASCAR and longleaf pines: North Carolina. Aidan and Ricky have been married for 13 years. They have four little bundles of joy: Aolani, our only daughter, age 10; and three boys, Micaiah, Raphael, and Morgan, ages 8, 2, and 4 months, respectively.
