Behind the Scenes

Preparing for Our First Episode

The set takes shape — the backlit arch that will frame every testimony.

One of the questions I’ve been getting lately is, “When is the first episode going to be released?” The answer is: soon. What many people don’t see is everything that’s happening behind the scenes to prepare for that moment.

From the very beginning, I’ve been intentional about every detail of In Faith We Testify. While this platform is certainly a reflection of me and my own faith journey, my vision has always been much bigger than that. I wanted to create a space where guests feel comfortable sharing some of the most personal and meaningful moments of their lives. More importantly, I wanted to create an environment that honors the Lord and gives Him the glory He deserves.

Over the past several months, we’ve worked through countless decisions. The cameras have been purchased. The microphones are in place. The lighting has been installed. The technology is coming together exactly as I envisioned. Now we’re down to some of the final details—curtains, furniture, and finishing touches for the set.

And if I’m being honest, I never thought it would be this difficult to pick out a pair of chairs.

What started as a simple furniture decision somehow turned into hours of searching, comparing, measuring, and second-guessing. But that’s part of the process. Every detail matters because I want this space to feel welcoming, peaceful, and authentic for every guest who walks through the door.

As excited as I am about the equipment and the studio itself, what I’m most looking forward to is welcoming our first guest and beginning the conversations that inspired this project in the first place.

In Faith We Testify exists to create a platform where people can openly share how Jesus Christ has worked in their lives. Every testimony is different. Every journey is unique. Yet each story points back to the same truth: God is alive, He is active, and He continues to transform lives every day.

My prayer is that these conversations do more than simply tell interesting stories. I pray they encourage those who may be struggling, strengthen the faith of believers, and remind people that our God is not distant or silent. He is living, present, and still working in ways that often exceed our understanding.

I also hope that God uses both myself and my guests as vessels for His purpose. If even one person finds renewed hope, stronger faith, or a deeper relationship with Christ because of these conversations, then every hour spent planning, preparing, and yes—even searching for the perfect chairs—will have been worth it.

“Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.”
Proverbs 16:3

We’re getting close.

Thank you to everyone who has supported, encouraged, prayed for, and believed in this vision. I cannot wait to share these stories with you and see how God uses them in the lives of others.

Stay tuned. We’re just getting started.
