It Is Written has received 18 Telly Awards in 2019: 13 bronze, four silver, and its first-ever gold Telly for “Black Wall Street.” These numbers include one bronze award for Escrito Está, It Is Written’s Spanish-language ministry.

The Telly Awards is the premier award honoring video and television across all screens. Celebrating 40 years this year, The Telly Awards receives more than 12,000 entries from five continents and represents top-tier secular and religious television programs, short films, documentaries, and feature-length films. Last year, It Is Written won six Telly awards.

“I’m beyond proud of our media production team,” said John Bradshaw, speaker/director. “While our aim is to gain souls for the Lord and to glorify God in what we do, this recognition tells us that we’re producing programs at a consistently high standard. And that gives us a better chance of reaching people with the gospel. It’s a good day for It Is Written. We’re committed to doing the best we can. I hear from people everywhere how much they’re enjoying the programs, so that commitment to excellence is being noticed.”
