Network 7 Media Center

What Network 7 Media Center does

Network 7 Media Center is a Chattanooga, Tennessee-based nonprofit media organization founded in 2005 that operates as an international production house delivering audio, video, and live streaming services to churches, ministries, schools, and businesses across more than 85 countries. The company is structured as a multi-brand ministry portfolio: its core production services unit is complemented by four sub-brands — Mission SONlight (a quarterly DVD subscription product and podcast series for Seventh-day Adventist Sabbath Schools featuring mission stories from the church's world divisions, priced at $50/quarter or $200/year), C4 or Consecrated Creators Communicating Christ (an online Media Missionary school adapting the Ellen White Madison Blueprint to teach young adults videography, photography, and small business practices with a spiritual focus), Propel Youth (a vocational and housing program for at-risk youth in partnership with the Life Hope Center in Limón), and The Blanco Project (a documentary initiative around Jack Blanco and The Clear Word Bible paraphrase).

The underlying technology is conventional media production infrastructure — professional video, audio, and live streaming capabilities — supplemented by a podcast distribution footprint across Apple, Spotify, Google, Amazon, Pandora, and iHeart, plus YouTube and Facebook content channels. There is no disclosed software platform, proprietary model, or technology IP; the principal asset is a 37-year content archive from the Seventh-day Adventist world divisions and the mission-focused documentary work surrounding it. The organization does not maintain a mobile app or public API.

Network 7 makes money through three channels: (1) subscription revenue from Mission SONlight DVD distribution to subscribing churches; (2) quote-based fees for custom media production services including corporate videos, product demos, conferences, training seminars, and live streaming; and (3) charitable donations accepted via PayPal. The go-to-market is direct outreach via phone and email for production work, direct-to-church subscription enrollment for Mission SONlight, and community-led recruitment through C4 and Propel Youth. Pricing for production services is not published; only the Mission SONlight subscription is publicly disclosed.
