Evan Lanier never imagined his career would revolve around a camera – let alone take him to dozens of countries by the time he turned 40. As a filmmaker, videographer, and co-founder of 5nine Creative, he’s spent years capturing powerful stories of people living out and strengthening their faith in the midst of hardship and tragedy. In this week’s episode, Evan joins Redeemed founder Paul Amos to share some of those stories, along with the life-changing lessons he and his family have learned along the way.
