Welcome to the Things That Shape Us podcast. My name is Jonathan Wymer and I'm joined by James Gary to discuss a various range of subjects that are all related to one idea: How those things shape our lives.

In this episode, James and I discuss ONE THING that shaped our lives with our occasional collaborator and longtime friend, Kris Seppala.. The "Faith-Based" market is a tricky one, especially when it comes to its perspective and rules on what is considered art within that market. James, Kris and I go on a deep-dive when it comes to inputting our various beliefs and faiths into the things we create. There are so many gray areas when it comes to the visual medium of Cinema in relation to faith and religion. And we tackle a few of those ideals that you find within the industry that may naturally seem combative at first, but at the heart it's simply people trying their best to get their story told. We also discuss the quality of these faith-based products, rather than the focus on story and themes that are more functional for the format of television and motion pictures outside of this niche market. The conversation is very personal, open, and we don't intend to impose any particular belief on those of you who are listening!
