History
Bluefish TV was started in 1987 when Marty Mosley, the President of Bluefish TV, and his wife Jackie Mosley began writing and producing video-based Bible studies specifically for youth groups and young adults. Since then over 92,000 churches have used one of 45 small group Bible study resources or one of the 600 video clips that have been produced by their team.[1]
In the last few years many pastors and teachers began using media in their large gatherings and Bluefish TV responded by adding over 600 of these video clips, most notably one of a little girl reciting Psalms 23 [2] that was viewed over 5 million times on viral video sites[3] and received attention on ABC's Nightline and Focus on the Family through the rise of GodTube.[4][5]
In 2000, Bluefish TV launched the Rightnow Campaign, which is led by Marty's son, Brian Mosley. The Rightnow Campaign helps connect young adults to specific ministry opportunities overseas based on the person's passions, skills and experience.[6] In May 2007 Bluefish TV was named by the BusinessasMissionNetwork.com as one of the “25 Most Admired Kingdom Companies”.[7]
