About this episode

Hollywood's heart is missing — but these faith-based filmmakers are bringing it back.

Nathan & Talitha Myers share how Christ-centered storytelling can inspire families, strengthen kids, and fight the silent war of tech addiction. In this heartfelt conversation, we explore the making of their satirical, family-friendly musical "Aria Appleton," the dangers of modern entertainment, and the role of parents in guiding children through today's digital maze. From cyberbullying to YouTube influence, Nathan and Talitha reveal the urgent need for truth-filled stories that protect young hearts and restore meaning to entertainment. Nathan D. and D'Lytha Myers are a dynamic husband-wife duo dedicated to using their unique talents in story creation and art to inspire younger generations. Nathan, an award-winning filmmaker, was the Lead Designer at Capernaum Studios & Gardens and was integral to the globally acclaimed series, "The Chosen". D'Lytha, on the other hand, is a classically trained musical theater performer and homeschooling mom who also serves as the Director of the Fort Worth Actors Studio. Together, they produced Aria Appleton Shines, a profound, yet entertaining musical film for children, which recently bagged the Gold Crown Award from ICVM. Subscribe for more inspiring conversations and share your thoughts in the comments below — we'd love to hear from you.
