This article reads like an advertisement. The references are mainly affiliated with the group. There are references to non-notable awards, but no third party coverage of these awards. Google shows lots of sales pages, a few namechecks, but no substantive coverage in reliable independent secondary sources that I can use to tone down the article.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Missvain (talk) 17:14, 19 January 2020 (UTC) Note, among Christian entertainment producers, some of the awards dismissed as insignificant are highly regarded. Should the Christian Post 2017 article about Christian History Institute's CHI Torchlighter series be cited? Christian Post is in no way connected with CHI Would the article be improved if it mentioned that the Evangelical Press Association has given several awards to CHI's magazine Christian History. EPA is a pretty well-known organization. Two 2019 awards were PastPicker4tA (talk) 16:43, 13 January 2020 (UTC). (this ends the copy of the incorrectly placed comment).
