EP 46 Capturing the Divine Narrative: Filmmaking, Faith, and the Frontlines of Global Missions

Wes, a filmmaker with an earnest passion for missions joins me for this latest conversation. Throughout our conversation, We reflect on their short term experience serving with WO and unearth the essence of the Great Commission and how Wes and his wife Mariah bring to light the dedication and adversities missionaries face in their quest to reach the unreached. It's not just about the act of filming; it's a journey into the hearts of those who go to extraordinary lengths to share their beliefs, often in isolation from their spiritual communities.

In the realm of global missions, every trip tells a story of transformation – not just for those on the receiving end, but for the missionaries themselves. Witnessing God's work in the most remote corners of the world serves as a powerful faith amplifier. It thrusts believers into a profound reliance on divine provision, reshaping their understanding of worship and community. Wes sheds light on this metamorphosis, revealing the grit and grace that underpin the missionary experience and how it reignites our own commitment to the divine narrative.

Wes also shares the role storytelling plays in stitching together the global church. By archiving the experiences, triumphs, and struggles of those who live their lives in service to the Great Commission, we inspire future generations and maintain the vigor of these testimonies. Wes's own reflections, coupled with insights into guiding the next generation's engagement in missions, carve out a path for authenticity, connection, and a shared understanding of our roles in God's expansive and ongoing story.
