Jaron Lockridge is the founder of Cinema Ministry Productions, which he co-manages with his wife, Amber. Jaron has always been a gifted writer; he wrote his first stage play at 15 and made his first film at 22. In 2016 he created his production company Misguided Perceptions Media Group based in Jackson, Tn. He wrote, directed and produced 12 feature length films, 2 series and several short films since that time.

In 2025, after much prayer and reflection, Jaron decided to totally change the direction of his company to reflect his faith and use his God-given gift for that purpose. He officially started Cinema Ministry Productions which now solely focuses on producing faith based narrative works and content. The first project is an eight episode tv show, House for the Broken.  

God & People Church (The Gap) is located in Jackson, Tn where Chris Taylor serves as pastor. The Gap Church which operates as a Christ-centered, intentional house of prayer, strives to actively serve the community, showing that the church is more than a gathering of believers within four walls.
