84: The Struggle to Have Faith as an Artist: An Interview with Actor Jo Sung


Listen Later

What if you’re an artist who hasn’t quite “made it” yet? What if it’s taking longer than you hoped? How would you keep your faith, especially if you believe that God has given you these talents and this calling? 


In our next installment of “Artists in Motion,” SOLA video manager Jason Chao interviews actor Jo Sung. He has been a working actor for the last two decades with roles in shows like Hawaii Five-0 and Magnum P.I. Jo Sung has been a working actor for more than 15 years, but he isn’t exactly a household name. But while he hasn’t had his big break, he has become a leader in the Asian American Christian acting community. Jo is the guy everyone loves to talk to because he loves his craft, he loves people, and most of all, he loves Jesus. 


This conversation is made for people who feel pressured to “make it” in any creative field. We hope you are encouraged to learn to love your art and craft, no matter what the outcome, as long as it brings God glory and gives you joy. 


Our “Artists in Motion” series hopes to platform Asian American Christian artists, as well as encourage all artists to root their identities in Christ and use their callings to share art and truth with the world.
