"Where did the name come from?" you may ask. Twelve Stone Films was derived from the incredible story of Joshua and the people of Israel crossing the Jordan River.

"Now the people came up from the Jordan on the tenth of the first month and camped at Gilgal on the eastern edge of Jericho. Those twelve stones which they had taken from the Jordan, Joshua set up at Gilgal. He said to the sons of Israel, "When your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, 'What are these stones? 'then you shall inform your children, saying, 'Israel crossed this Jordan on dry ground.' "For the Lord your God dried up the waters of the Jordan before you until you had crossed, just as the Lord your God had done to the Red Sea, which He dried up before us until we had crossed; that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the Lord is mighty, so that you may fear the LORD your God forever."

Joshua 4:19-24

Basically, God provided an incredible miracle for His people and asked Joshua to establish a twelve stone monument to remind them, and generations to come, what He did for them. As filmmakers, we want to use the talents and blessings that God has provided to us to remind our generation what God has done, is doing, and will do for us.
