About us
NewEarthCore Ministries in a few words.
NewEarthCore Ministries (NECM) is a small, developing work built around a big promise: that God the Father will one day bring about a New Heaven and New Earth, and that His children will stand before Him as a transformed, eternal family.
How it started
NECM grew out of years of prayer, Bible study, songwriting, engineering work, and life experience. It was born from the conviction that God is not just calling people to "be religious," but to truly know Jesus Christ, trust His sacrifice, and line their lives up with the Father's long-term plan.
Rather than focusing only on the present moment, the ministry points people toward the future God has promised—a New Earth where righteousness dwells and where billions who have ever lived will finally have the chance to become true children of God.
NECM weaves together teaching, music, video, and practical ideas for living as "citizens of the Kingdom" even while we still live in this age.
Tony & the story behind the name
NewEarthCore Ministries was founded by Anthony ("Tony") Terranova—an electromechanical engineer, songwriter, and follower of Christ who loves to connect technical thinking with spiritual truth.
Over time, Tony became convinced that his own life's calling involved pointing people toward the New Earth described in Scripture and helping them think, build, sing, and live with that future in mind.
When he isn't sketching a new prototype or working on a song, Tony enjoys time with his family and his sweet little dog Trixie—who has her own Trixie page on this site for anyone who needs a smile.
Three connected ministry arms
One mission, expressed in prototypes, songs, and videos.
NECM is not one project, but three closely related arms that support the same goal: helping people know Jesus, understand the Father's plan, and walk toward the New Earth together.
NewEarth-Proto
The prototyping and engineering arm. NewEarth-Proto explores God-centered solutions for energy, travel, housing, consumer goods, and communications, in contrast to the "man-made" approaches that so often fall short.
It looks ahead to the millennial reign of Christ and the true New Earth while working on practical ideas that can help people right now.
NewEarth-Songs
The music arm. Songs like those on the God is Calling album speak honestly about pain, repentance, hope, and God's plan. Upcoming albums like One True God and Living in the City will continue that theme.
Backers can even help choose between new Suno-created variations for certain songs, voting on which ones should be released next.
The Lion and The Lamb and The Cross Productions
The video arm. Through shorts, lyric videos, and longer-form projects, this arm helps make the same messages visible in ways that can be shared across platforms and generations.
From simple visuals to more developed storytelling, each piece is meant to draw attention back to Jesus Christ and the Father's plan.
Spaces & tools
Design room, prototype shop, and music/video studio.
NECM makes use of a small but capable set of rooms and tools so that ideas can move from prayer and sketchbook into real-world songs, videos, and tangible prototypes.
Design room
The design room is where product concepts, teaching tools, and prototype ideas begin to take shape. It is equipped for both 3D modeling and electrical design, including:
- Mechanical 3D modeling for parts, enclosures, and assemblies.
- Electrical and PCB design for control and signal boards.
- Concept art and layout for future products and teaching aids.
Prototype shop
Next to the design room is a hands-on prototype shop where ideas can be turned into physical test pieces. Typical tools and capabilities include:
- Light machining and fabrication (cutting, drilling, shaping, basic welding).
- 3D printers for small-run parts and concept models.
- Electronics benches for soldering, wiring, and testing.
- Assembly and fit-check areas for early prototypes.
This space also allows for limited-run, hand-crafted swag items for supporters, such as custom plaques, small art pieces, or other unique items tied to specific campaigns.
Music & video studio
A dedicated music and video area allows songs and visual stories to be created in-house. It includes:
- Recording space for vocals and instruments.
- Mixing and editing tools for music production.
- Video editing and rendering for full-length videos and shorts.
- Space for planning storyboards and shot lists.
Together, these spaces help NECM move from ideas to tangible songs, videos, and prototypes that can serve the Body of Christ and point to the New Earth.
