In the words of writer/director/producer Dave Alan Johnson, "Larry and his team have been a lifesaver and life-changer over the years!

Mastermedia is an international organization that facilitates relationships between media leaders and the Christian community at large. Its purpose is to be a positive and redemptive influence in entertainment by touching the lives of media executives and filmmakers and mobilizing global prayer for them.

"What I always respected about Larry [Poland] is that he's never come in the spirit of scolding. He's always come in the spirit of constructive conversation," says HBO Chairman-CEO Richard Plepler. "What they were really trying to do is keep the lines of communication open between our industry and their movement." (Variety article, published June 25, 2015)
