DJ is a creative through and through, father and husband to boot, but also a man who knows his identity comes from the Lord. He's a musician, a video guy, he's toured with Lecrae, and he's staying busy. His story is one of those "getting down to the wire" stories, and if you've been there, you know how much your faith is stretched. If you're there now, welcome.

Matt Greiner, from the very beginning of his band August Burns Red, has been open to sharing his faith. He started, like you, with an idea, put it before the throne and just kept creating. In this episode, he shares a failure story that puts things into perspective: even the veteran artists and the seasoned leaders that are further along the curve still hit potholes. No matter where you are in your craft, failure is a part of the process. Commit your work unto the Lord, and press on. Matt's also running a drum kit business with a friend of his, so if you're a musician or a budding business, this episode is for you.

I was first introduced to Mark Gungor sometime around this time last year in Las Vegas when he visited our church Canyon Ridge. He's a storyteller, a marriage expert, pastor, comedian, and all-around tour de force. Is your marriage healthy? Listen to Mark Gungor. Are you a parent? Listen to Mark Gungor. Is your marriage on the rocks? Listen to Mark Gungor.

Jake Brown, like many of us film and video folks, started with little more than drive and a little bit of faith, which, frankly is enough to move mountains, and certainly start something. He's a fine example of "never quitting," as he and his partner are now running their own videography business in Texas. What are you passionate about? What do you love so much you would pay others to do it? If it's film and video, you've come to the right place. If it's art, welcome. If it's starting SOMETHING, then you are welcome here too!

Irene Santiago knows that the film industry can be... well, fake. For an actress (or actor), it's absolutely critical to be who you say you are on your reel, your resume, and in your auditions. Be real. Be honest. Find out how Irene fights doubt and discouragement in the world of Hollywood, faith-based films, and all things media.

I called up Paul on the telephone, er, email back in October and with a pending baby shower, I ended up biffing our Skype time for his interview. A dad of 2, Paul graciously extended the olive branch, and we reconnected a full month later. The best part is, he lives in the future - 18 hours ahead of Las Vegas (PST). He's transitioning from Hillsong film to full-time, freelance filmmaking, and he's putting his full faith and trust in God for all of his needs. Are you doing the same right now, even if you're sandwiched between disruption and the unknown? It's easier said than done; we miscarried almost a full year ago, and the middle of it, it was hard to see the 30,000-ft. view. God just kept saying "trust." Trust Bold Nation. Trust and go boldly before the throne of grace.

I was referred to Jeremy by Brady Shearer (ep. 32). This guy's a bundle of energy. He's a youth minister in Grand Junction, CO and an amazing photographer to boot, but more importantly, he's a son of the Risen King. Whether you're 18 or 98, you can use your passion to bring glory to God and impact a million -er, billion- lives. People want to hear from you!

Father. Husband. Leader. Filmmaker. Son Of The King. Sounds like a Twitter bio, doesn't it? Jared Hogan leads the film production team at Elevation Church, a sprawling church that is constantly doing big, bold things with the Almighty. Jared's work speaks for himself; his leadership style is calculating and strong, and his encouragement for budding filmmakers is something you can't miss.

When things don't add up, look to Jesus. Kelly Greyson has appeared in a number of faith-based films, including the recent "Woodlawn" sports drama. She's got a big heart for showing Christ's love in spite of the obstacles, in spite of the critics, and her tenacity is contagious. If you are starting out as an actor or an actress, buckle up. It's a bumpy road, but if the King is calling you to it, then do a gut check - what do you have to fear? Try today; get up, and try again tomorrow.

Will landed himself a film production job at Willow Creek, the church led by Bill Hybels and the church that is responsible for the annual Global Leadership Summit. Whether it's working on a solo project or with the church, Will recognizes the need to approach art with an attitude of humility. It is after all a fully collaborative process, especially in film, so be receptive to feedback.
