Our Year In Review
Looking Back Through 2025's Highlights
A Year In Review
Each year we take some time in December to reflect on all that has happened in the last 12 months. God works through time and as this year comes to a close, we are blown away by all the experiences we’ve had, the new friends and network we’ve made, the places and faces we and our boys have visited and the incredible care from so many of you.
As we reflect on an incredible year for our organization we want to say a resounding “Thank You” to all of you who are keeping up with our progress, supporting our mission, praying for our next steps, and loving our family so well. Please take 3 minutes to read and see some photos from another wonderful year.
Year End Giving Update
We wanted to briefly share our updated numbers for our year end giving campaign:
As of December 29th, we’ve raised over $8,000 towards our goal – praise God! Thank you to everyone who has donated – your gifts are helping us fund the post-production for the DAVID project. If you would like to make a tax-deductible year-end donation to help us meet our target, click the button below.
Missional Labs
If you followed along with us at all this past year, you’ll undoubtedly be familiar with Missional Labs. The fellowship program, which began Fall 2024, took us to San Francisco this past January followed by a trip to Oxford and London in April.
We gained so much through the program, the mentors, and the other fellows in our cohort; clarity, conviction, insights, connections, and friendships with people from across the globe.









We ended our time feeling a deep sense of gratitude and hope for the future of the church.
DAVID : Short-Documentary
This year began the big push to produce a proof-of-concept film, one that would be a true Doxology Studios original project. We considered a list of potential stories, but when we became aware of David and his excitement to share his testimony, it felt like a clear open door from the Lord.
Murray has been filming with David periodically since last December, but the primary production happened in the summer to film the main interview that will form the spine of the story. To help us capture the interview, our friends Garrett and Jody donated their time, skills, and equipment, which really elevated the look and feel of the footage. Garrett flew down from NE Tennessee just for this interview, and ended up capturing some fantastic BTS images of the day:









New Team Members
One of the biggest joys of this year was a very tangible measure of growth for us: bringing on new team members as contractors!
Garrett Ware (Motion Creative Media) has jumped in as a go-to camera operator for us. We loved having him on set for David’s interview, and we’re already dreaming of future projects with him. He’s also captured some fantastic BTS for us!
We also expanded in post-production this year as we were able to hire John Wist (Unite Creative Co) to help move our projects along much faster. John’s expertise go well beyond editing. We are so excited he will be editing David’s film and we plan to incorporate him in even more projects in 2026!
Looking Ahead
2025 was a big year of development for Doxology Studios and for us (Claire & Murray) personally. We learned a lot about building a new ministry and communicating our mission and vision with greater clarity. Moving forward into 2026, we believe it is the perfect time to start bringing the vision and mission of Doxology Studios to new audiences.
Spring 2026 will be focused around fundraising and developing new partnerships across the US. We’ll be iniviting individuals, ministries, and churches to partner with us through financial support to help us fully fund our annual operating budget. Getting to 100% funding will allow us to be 100% focused on our work with Doxology, greatly increasing our capacity to produce new content.
We’re also inviting churches and other ministries to help us host screenings for our upcoming film. We want to bring our films to your community! If you or your church is interested in hosting us for a screening, or you’d like to know more about how you can be a part of our support team, send us message! We’d love to connect with you.
Thank you once again to everyone who has journeyed with us this year. We pray each of you experience God’s presence and blessings as you celebrate the end of one chapter and the beginning of another for you and yours. We’re excited to see what God does through Doxology Studios in the New Year!









Y’all are doing great work, keep it up Claire and Murray!
Big team and big dreams!
Thankful for you all and the meaningful work you do🤝🏼
