ABOUT TODAY'S EPISODE: What happens when faith collides with fame? In this thought-provoking episode, I chat with award-winning artist Steph Carse, who pulls back the curtain on his journey in the entertainment industry. From performing alongside music legends to navigating Hollywood, Steph shares the personal highs and lows that refined his calling, showing how God has been shaping his mission all along. We explore: Using Gifts as a Calling: How living out of his car and collaborating with top artists helped Steph recognize his talents as more than just skills—they were a calling. Redemption Stories and Real-Life Miracles: Steph reveals powerful stories, like that of a woman who overcame abuse to find her voice in gospel music, touching hearts and sparking healing for others. Facing Modern Challenges: With social media’s influence and shifting family dynamics, Steph talks about the struggle for self-worth and how his projects address bullying and identity in today’s world. Standing Firm in Faith: Together, we discuss how the Church can reclaim its role in the arts, bringing light into an industry that deeply influences culture. Is it possible for God to use the arts to revive hearts and stir faith? Tune in as we unpack this question with Steph’s remarkable testimony of surrender and purpose. This episode will challenge and inspire you to see entertainment as a mission field, igniting hope and healing in unexpected places. ABOUT GUEST: While many may recognize Emmy ® Award winner Steph Carse as a world-class vocalist, in actuality he is a Jack-of-all-trades: a writer, editor, producer and director, songwriter, and music artist with multiple awards and accolades to his name. Having sold over half a million records and garnering fans and awards from around the globe, one would never imagine after his breakout success in (1993) he found himself at square one in 1997, with no money, living in his car, seeking his purpose.
