What is StoneXVI?
StoneXVI is a new network that creates videos, articles, films, music, and podcast's dedicated to the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Entirely free on YouTube, Podcast apps, Spotify, and iTunes. With the growing rise of "anti-Mormonism" in media, we need an engaged, timely, artistic platform to faithfully and confidently explain misunderstood topics in Church history, scriptures, and theology. We also need to galvanize the Latter-day Saint youth in artistic expression, with entertainment value! StoneXVI is the platform to do this.
StoneXVI was created by young people, for everyone!
Articles
Multiple weekly articles from our website, written by faithful members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Addressing doctrinal and historical topics about The Book of Abraham, Kinderhook Plates, Blacks and the Priesthood, Polygamy etc. As well as theological subjects like multiple Gods, Exaltation, Revelation and more. We will use articles to teach people about evidences of the restored gospel. Archaeological evidences of The Book of Mormon, and The Pearl of Great Price. Textual evidences, fulfilled prophecies of the modern Prophets and more. We also will publish about social topics from a faithful Godly perspective, and and cultural subjects like divorce, school, depression, relationships, and all things that make us human.
Films
Pairing with Utah filmmakers, we will create religious films unlike any you've seen before. Usually 40-45 minute short films covering a wide range of topics. Each film is written with the goal of furthering conversion, and creating comfort, while holding to the value of quality entertainment. The films will be both family appropriate, and relatable to Generation Z and Millennials. We want to entertain, and uplift.
Music
StoneXVI will release music videos by Latter-day Saint artists. The more Latter-day Saint influence in music-the better. These songs will be hymnal covers, pop, rap, folk, and R&B music about the gospel. No other platform has ever done this. We will use music to bring the gospel back into the culture.
Videos
Weekly 8-15 minute long gospel discussion videos highlighting topics about the Church and gospel, and providing evidences for our beliefs. We will also use these videos to explain our beliefs, share great stories, bear testimony, and have dialogues/interviews with various people.
Weekly Podcast
A weekly video podcast, also available on podcast apps, discussing all things connected to the gospel and The Church.
