Laura discusses her journey from a passionate dreamer with a love for the arts to participating in an international ministry for faith-based filmmaking. She candidly shares the challenges of managing her many roles, the importance of prayer and balance, and her innovative projects like the Room 4 app and the John 3:16 Film School in Uganda. The conversation also touches on the significance of staying true to one's divine calling and how talent defines one's mission field, not their identity.Highlights Include:Managing a Busy LifeBalancing Family and CareerFilm, Family, and CommunityCall to MissionsJohn 3:16 Film SchoolDeveloping Film CurriculumYour Talent Defines Your Mission FieldBio:Laura Mae is a Navy wife, mom of nine, and a passionate dreamer who has taken a lifetime of love for the arts and turned it into an international ministry, serving the faith-based and family-friendly film family all over the world.
