It's one thing to trust God. It's another to trust Him when He calls you to do something that seems so much bigger than you. How do you respond when God's direction takes you into unfamiliar territory?That's what voiceover artist and Bible narrator Dan Parr had to decide when he heard God's call for a particularly daunting project - translating, producing, and narrating an entirely new audiobook version of the Bible, the "EUR" version (Easy to Understand, Read) In this episode, you'll learn how Dan had to shake off the doubts of his abilities and shortcomings in order to be obedient to the call he heard from God to step into this project with no previous Biblical scholarship experience. You'll discover how trusting God and sticking with your commitment can lead to great things and blessings for both you and those who you are sent to bless! Learn more about the EUR Bible HereTap to send us a text!

It seems like A.I. is taking over - from music, to video and writing - there seems to be no end to the impact. How should Christian creators respond? In recent news, the music industry was rocked by the revelation that A.I. generated songs are at the top of the iTunes charts - which includes the Christian category, with an A.I. generated artist named Solomon Ray. In this hard-hitting episode, we get real about the possible affects of A.I. on the Christian creative's career, while giving much needed spiritual perspective on this technological tidal wave. Should Christian creators be concerned, or should we acknowledge that this form of creation - if we can call it that - is here to stay? This episode was recorded in part during our Creator Checkup livestream, which airs every Friday on YouTube. Tap to send us a text!
