Every partnership helps us tell stories that matter, share the hope of Jesus, and impact lives for generations to come.

Master Shot Media was founded by Rob Ekno, whose life has been shaped by faith, recovery, media, and a lifelong passion for storytelling.
Over the years, God has woven together experiences in broadcasting, Hollywood, writing, speaking, live events, recovery outreach, and Christian filmmaking into one unified ministry.
What once appeared to be separate chapters has become one mission: using media, storytelling, education, and personal testimony to reveal God's work in people's lives and inspire transformation.
Rob's journey—from addiction and homelessness to more than three decades of recovery, from Hollywood and broadcasting to founding the Knoxville International Christian Film Festival—has prepared him to serve others with authenticity, compassion, and hope.
Today, that same calling continues to shape the vision and mission of Master Shot Media:
as it reaches lives through faith-based media and personal testimony.
What began as one step of obedience has grown into a Christian media ministry serving filmmakers, families, churches, recovery communities, and audiences around the world.
Through television, film, books, festivals, recovery outreach, speaking, and community events, Master Shot Media encourages hearts, strengthens faith, and points people toward the love of Jesus Christ.
Our ministry is expressed through five initiatives working together under one unified vision:
Knoxville International Christian Film Festival (KICFF)
Connecting Christian filmmakers and storytellers from around the world.
KICFF Presents
An award-winning television series celebrating faith-filled stories.
The Sobering Life
Sharing hope, recovery, and restoration through Christ.
Film, Television & Documentaries
Creating media that inspires, encourages, and points people toward redemption.
Books, Speaking & Community Outreach
Equipping and encouraging people through stories of faith and hope.


Master Shot Media is not seeking investors—we are seeking ministry partners who believe in the power of Christian storytelling to share the life-changing love of Jesus Christ.
We believe every life has a story, every story has a purpose, and every testimony can help change another life.
Through television, film, documentaries, books, community events, recovery outreach, and personal testimony, we create opportunities to reveal God's work, strengthen faith, encourage families, and inspire hope.
Your partnership helps expand that mission by supporting television programming, developing faith-based films and documentaries, growing the Knoxville International Christian Film Festival, strengthening recovery outreach, and equipping Christian creatives.
Whether through prayer, financial support, introductions, or encouragement, every act of partnership helps bring Christ-centered media to people who need hope.
If God is calling you to become part of this ministry, we would be honored to welcome you as a ministry partner.
