My name is Stuart Miller, and I am what you might call a "late bloomer" Christian. I came to Christ at age 39, and God immediately gave me a clear, unwavering heart for youth. For nearly 30 years, I have followed that call—teaching, mentoring, and walking alongside young people to help them find their purpose in Him.
In 2006, my wife Cindi and I, along with several dear friends, founded GodZone Ministry. As we look at the year ahead, 2026 is shaping up to be our most ambitious season yet. We are taking on a schedule more rigorous than any before, and we are trusting God to meet us at every corner.
Our mission is anchored in Mark 16:15:
"He said to them, 'Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.'"
In today's world, I’ve observed that there is no better way to fulfill this command than through media. By leveraging modern tools, we can bring the unchanging Gospel to young people wherever they are. We are excited to use every platform available to ensure that no heart is left unreached.

And minister at Coryell Fellowship Church for the last 8 years
Hi, I’m Cindi Miller. For over 40 years, my heart has been in youth and children’s ministry, helping the next generation find their own footing in faith. Music has always been my "anchor"—it’s how I personally connect with God’s strength and find healing, and it’s been a joy to share that with others for four decades.
In 2000, I married my husband, Stuart, and we quickly realized we shared a common dream: using media to reach people who might never step foot in a traditional church. In 2006, we started GodZone Ministry. It began as a college outreach and eventually grew to serve the kids and teens in our local community.
I’ve always felt that the "digital world" isn’t just about technology—it’s about connection. Whether it’s through a podcast, a video, or social media, my goal is to create high-quality content that feels relevant to real life. I want to break down the barriers that keep people away from faith and offer a space where everyone feels seen and heard.
At the end of the day, I’m just a person who loves God and loves people. Whether I’m working with a group of kids, leading worship, or producing something for the web, I just want to be helpful, authentic, and encouraging to anyone who is on their own faith journey.

Misty M. Stewart - Associate Producer, Post Production Director
“Heaveno Beats Hello."
My name is Misty Stewart and if you ask me, Where are you from? I will tell you, Heaven and I’m going back. If you ask, How are you? I will say, “Good, because God is so good.” Can you tell where my head is? Some would say in the clouds, others would say on my neck. I will go ahead and tell you… My mind is set on Christ Jesus because He has brought me back to life and bought me with His blood. Amen. If you know anything about the Bible…Before Father God sent/gave His Son… Blood was required very frequently for the forgiveness of sins. I am so thankful that through One sacrifice/ offering our sin debt is paid once and for all! But only IF we put our trust in the finished work of the cross. John 14:6
Jesus paid it all y’all!!!
I am honored to be a servant leader for such a time as this and I am here to do our Father’s will. I live to make Him smile and you too. The cross points up and out. “Love God, Love People.”
The Bible says we are created in His image… but it takes a process of time to get His character. Bio’s are supposed to be about the person, but I really don’t like talking about me… But, I do love talking about what Christ has done in me and can do in you. So check this out, (And now I’m talking about me) never thought I was going to have one child yet He blessed us with 6! This still amazes me!!! I have been married since my youth to my soul mate. Yep, God brought him too! I prayed when I didn’t have it all together and God answered. Almost been 30 years now! This is another wow!!!
So in saying that… Time flies! Please understand, It is one of your greatest assets. Be wise, don’t waste it. Ephesians 5:16 Can you believe it? That’s in the Bible too. As well as…Your life is hidden in Christ Jesus. Colossians 3:3 Today, I encourage you to know Who You are… by knowing Whose You are. This is your IDENTITY!
The only reason I am where I am…
Is by the grace of God; The Father’s plan. So listen up! As we begin a New Year…. We have the gear, the drive, the time and the talent. Anything is possible and ALL things are possible with God and we are in the GodZone.
Romans 8:28 is great! The Bible says, “God works all things together for good for those who love Him and who are called according to His purpose.”
Did you know you are called according to His purpose, too! And that’s where we come in. “We’re better together!” We were never meant to do life alone.
But you see, God made us and knows what He has made us for; No two fingerprints are alike. Yes, you're unique!
And, ultimately, IF, We delight ourselves in Him, He will give us the desires of our heart. Psalm 37:4
Wanna know why? Because when you surrender and chose to make Jesus the Lord of your life and not just believe IN but ON; He can use you because your desire is His desire.
Thank you Jesus!
Dean Stewart - The Manager (The one who manages to do what no one else will!)
Dean Stewart has spent three decades proving that faith, family, and film sets can share the same call sheet.
A devoted follower of Christ, he has walked with the Lord daily since giving his heart to Him, and the walk has led to SUPER places.
But his favorite credits read simply:
HUSBAND to the impossibly gorgeous Misty for 30 blessed years.
DAD to six OUTSTANDING Jesus-loving kids who still think Dad’s best stories come from set, and reigning dad-joke champion, who swear they’re “amazing” because Dad’s still paying the Wi-Fi bill.
By day, he walks with Jesus; by “action!” he moonwalks on production sets. Since first working in film way back in 1998, Dean has clocked more behind-the-scenes steps than a Fitbit influencer! Work includes: background extra, stand-in, photo double, and basically most devout stunt-shadow. He’s punched the clock as everything from forklift Jedi to oilfield monkey! But nothing beats the thrill of pretending to sip coffee in the back of a scene while Brad Pitt contemplates life up front. Off-location, he’s been a loud force of encouragement—always ready to pray, mentor, or move furniture for a neighbor in need.
He’s held a dozen day jobs, yet none reward like the moment the clapper snaps and he realizes, “I’m getting paid to help tell a story.” Dean’s story, however, is still in production—guided by grace, grounded in Scripture, and guaranteed a happy ending because the Director already gave His life for the final cut!
Need prayer? He’s available. Need someone to hold your reflector board and your emotional baggage? Also available. His motto: “When you truly walk with the Lord, He lands you in SUPER places—sometimes with a trailer, sometimes with a honey-wagon, sometimes with a lead role!
James O. Miller Jr. - Most Annoying Member of the Team
Hi, I’m James Miller. Like my brother Stuart, I consider myself a 'late bloomer' in my walk with Christ. Jesus found me in my 50s, giving me the opportunity to serve Him in ways I never expected. I’ve been involved with GodZone Ministry since 2013, but my journey hasn’t been without its storms.
After losing my wife of 33 years to a hard-fought battle with cancer, one of her final wishes was that I never lose my faith. We shared many prayers during her fight, and I believe Jesus held me through it all. Despite the heartache, I still thank God for the time we had. Since then, God has brought another blessing into my life; I have remarried and am living every day to serve Him.
My creative journey began with a role in the movie Homeless Henry: Through the Tears. That experience sparked a fire in me to use film to spread the Word of the Lord. I have since performed in several movies and assisted with various ministry events. I look forward to helping GodZone reach the lost and help them find their way to God.
