AX And Sophia Waters (Episode 352)A story can save a life—or hide a wound. We sit down with author David Solomon to unpack the day AX was born, the moment Sophia Waters first sang portals open, and the long, painful path from prodigy to survivor reclaiming his work. What begins as a creative anniversary becomes a frank look at alleged grooming, trafficking, and the way influence in Christian publishing can warp mentorship into control. David shares how a five-hour call set off church upheaval, how meetings turned into hours of idea extraction, and why certain details in “family” fantasy cross lines kids should never have to navigate.We walk through the heart of AX, a modern reimagining of Saul becoming Paul through a vampire-turned-soul-saver, and the vision for Sophia Waters, where a siren voice connects to the Tower of Babel and the cost of misused power. David explains why he’s resurrecting both projects: to center redemption without exploitation, to protect young readers, and to prove that Christian fantasy can be bold, lyrical, and safe. The conversation doesn’t flinch from faith either. David prays daily for those he accuses, asks for repentance and consequences, and names the difference between forgiveness and accountability—because spiritual language must never shield abuse.In our final act, we spotlight the quiet heroes in the justice system: attorneys who honor clients, guard confidentiality, and refuse shadowy back-channeling. We encourage listeners to document misconduct, contact bar associations, and insist on ethical representation. If you’ve ever wondered where creativity, conscience, and the rule of law meet, this conversation offers a compass: protect children, tell the truth, and keep power accountable.If this resonated, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review.
