FrameChangers Media Company Information

After falling into the TV and Computer time-trap, creator and founder Jennifer Cybart needed to surround herself with encouraging words from the Bible in a new way!  The traditional scripture written on note cards got lost and her kids used her Bible as a coloring book.

Inspired to put God’s Word and digital devices together, Jennifer decided to create FrameChangers as scripture art for your TV, Computer, Digital Picture Frames, iPhone and iPod Touch.  There are collections to meet the needs of women, men and kids with verses and art targeted for each individual.

“Seeing God’s Word in an artistic way on digital devices is an emotional and memorable experience,” says Jennifer.  She recruited her engineer husband, Adam, to ensure the highest quality product and with the help of graphic designers, web developers, and many supportive friends, FrameChangers became a reality.

As for the name FrameChangers?  She credits divine inspiration.  God wants to change our frame of mind. (Romans 12:2)

~ Here’s to many renewed minds, one frame at a time.
