Enoch Magazine is a non-profit media movement, which attempts to document the Glory of God in a variety of people and circumstances. As we stay connected to the pulse of current culture, people often ask, “Are you a Christian magazine?” Our answer to that question is both yes and no. “Yes” in the sense that we all believe in Jesus and the Bible, but “No” in the sense that we are not affiliated with any church or religious organization.

We’re basically on a journey to discover who God really is. But before Enoch Magazine could fully form, two basic principles had to be learned. The first was the issue of money. When a ministry or social justice project has financial backing, plenty of people want to help, but when the money dries up, so do the people. We had to decide if the absence of money was enough to detour us form our calling. The Bible says you can’t serve two masters, so our first lesson was to understand that money is not God’s only way of giving a “thumbs up.”

Our second principle stemmed from a verse in Proverbs (3: 27-28). It said: “Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act. Do not say to your neighbor, ‘Come back later; I’ll give it tomorrow’— when you have it with you.” To us, this verse covers a ton of ground. It relates to people talking about Jesus, not talking about Jesus, helping others, not helping others, etc…

What is “good?” We believe it’s everything from giving a sandwich and a hug to a homeless person, to asking the deeper questions on issues of “faith” and “God” and “prayer.” We don’t stay in the Christian bubble. We’re on the streets, we’re backstage, we’re in the ghettos and we’re in the bars. In fact, on our last trip to Las Vegas, we were outside the strip clubs….(that footage is being edited right now so sign up for our updates so you don’t miss that issue).
