Description
What matters most in our lives and careers? The mind behind VeggieTales and the founder of Big Idea Productions, Phil Vischer, shares the story of his life and career—from his growing up in Iowa to his leadership of one of the biggest animation studios in the United States. Through the bankruptcy of Big Idea and the failure of his dreams and aspirations, Phil realized that his pride stood in the way of following Christ. God showed him that his dreams were more important to him than He was. By giving over his idols and his life to God, Phil found that "the most important thing I can do for God is to make God the most important thing." His life today is a testimony to the work of God and to the power of His will.
