Behind the Scenes of "Pastor's Kid" Crafting Connection and Redemption

Send us a Text Message.

In times of fog, wisdom, and shared experiences are the guiding lights that help us find our way to self-acceptance. As we embark on this journey, we are joined by Emmy-winning director and cinematographer Benjamin Ironside Koppin and the ever-perceptive actress Courtney Bandeko. As we discuss unconditional self-love and the relentless pursuit of one's potential, we uncover the influences of family to mentors that have shaped our paths in both creativity and personal growth.

Examining the intricacies of constructing a faith-based film that truly reflects the human condition, we probe further into the heart of storytelling. It discusses how to balance genre expectations while confronting life's untidy realities, even when touching on faith's shadows. We will then engage in an impassioned dialog about providing solace and recognition to those disenchanted by religious institutions, validating their pain through our upcoming film, "Pastor's Kid: The Movie," and the promise of connection it holds for believers and skeptics alike.

Amidst the storm of criticism and conversation that swirls around Christian-themed art, we also navigate the choppy waters of our upcoming film. Embracing both dissent and support, we share how we've engaged with our community, finding that even amidst contention, there's a profound yearning for creative expressions of faith. As we prepare to unveil our narrative of redemption and divine love, join us in anticipation of a legacy that leaves no one unseen, unaccepted, or unloved.
