The "Can You Build it Better?" contest
Last year, in our first ever LEGO/brick building contest, hundreds joined in. So of course we wanted to do it again!
This time the theme is “things that aren’t but should be” – we want you to improve on whatever you want. Would your alarm clock be better if it had a coffee pot on top? Should your car have 6 wheels instead of 4? Would your cat run faster if he had rollerblades on? Our God is the Grand Inventor, and as His Image-bearers, we can echo His creativity!
Theme: Things that aren’t but should be
Create something entirely new. It can be functional, fun, or out-of-this-world.
RP plans to share as many of the entries as we can online – maybe even all of them! – with some also appearing in our March/April issue, along with links to the videos.

"Your Turn!"
Inspire Christians to think, speak, and act for God’s glory
Have you been inspired by a video to defend your faith or be in awe of God’s amazing creation? Has a podcast empowered you to improve your marriage or manage your finances better? And have articles in this or other magazines and websites helped you serve as a friend, elder, teacher, or mom?
Almost every hour of the day we are being blessed directly, or indirectly, by godly resources that others have developed.
Now it’s your turn!
Reformed Perspective respectfully challenges you to turn your passion, creativity, story, and ideas into something that can bless others. A generous sponsor is offering $7,000 in cash prizes, and RP will platform some of the entries with our magazine, website, podcast, and social media channels so that they can bless tens of thousands of people.
Perhaps you have training and education that would be a huge help to others, or you have experienced a trial and have learned lessons that may help others. Maybe you have a story to share to encourage or warn your siblings in Christ. This is your calling and opportunity to bless Christ’s church!
Categories
There will be the three main categories below, with each of them subdivided into YOUTH (under age 19) and ADULTS, resulting in 6 categories overall.
- VIDEO: make your message come alive!
- AUDIO: speak, or even sing, from your heart!
- WRITTEN: whether it is an article, comic, or maybe even a script, get it from your mind onto “paper”!
Teachers and home-schooling parents, this could be a great way to challenge your students!
$7,000 in cash prizes
A generous donor has allowed us to offer:
- $1,000 for the winner of each of the 6 categories.
- $1,000 for the overall fan favorite.
We will ask our readers to vote for their favorite in the March issue. The judging criteria is to inspire and equip your brothers and sisters to think, speak or act to God’s glory.
Entry Criteria:
- Content must be original. You are welcome to make use of resources like books, friends, and AI to help you (but please credit sources when relevant).
- Entries must be faithful to God’s Word and bring glory to God.
- We welcome any topics that are suitable for a Christian audience. Mechanics, art, philosophy, theology, relationships, mission, sports, mental health – or anything else. After all, every square inch belongs to Christ. But we ask that submissions be focussed on inspiring your audience.
- Quality: must be good enough that it can be shared with our audience without us needing to edit or improve it (so, bounce it off friends and family first, and ask them to help you hone it – what could you do to make it as good as it can get?).
- Although you will keep the rights to your content, by entering the contest you give Reformed Perspective the right to publish it in the magazine if we decide to, and also on our social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, etc.), and on our Real Talk podcast.
- Entries must be submitted through the form below.
- Deadline: January 31, 2026.
