Unseen Miracles In Filmmaking: Julie Castro on Obedience, Faith, and Creating I Am Life—Wonderment in the Womb

What happens when God gives you a vision that no one else understands? In this powerful interview episode of Youth Worker on Fire, Doug Edwards talks with author, producer, and filmmaker Julie Castro, whose radical obedience to God's call led her to create the unique and spiritually moving film—I Am Life: Wonderment in the Womb. Julie shares her incredible faith journey, from writing her first book On Earth as It Is in Heaven: A Personal Allegory to producing the TV series Thirst No More and Bear Fruit—and now stepping into the world of filmmaking to celebrate life through interpretive dance, music, and divine dialogue. In this inspiring conversation, Julie and Doug discuss: ✅ How God turns obedience into a legacy of creativity and faith ✅ The four-year journey behind I Am Life—and why timing is everything ✅ What it means to create art that glorifies God when the world says "there's no category for that" ✅ The power of waiting on the Holy Spirit before taking your next step ✅ How young artists, pastors, and parents can hear God's voice clearly and walk boldly in their calling 💡 Whether you're a youth pastor, volunteer, parent, or a creative leader, Julie's story will remind you that when you step out in obedience, God provides every resource, connection, and miracle you need. "If you've got a crazy idea, it might be just from the Lord." – Julie Castro 🌐 Guest Contact & Links — Julie Castro 🎬 Movie Website: www.thirstnomore.tv 🎬 Movie Trailer: youtube.com/watch?v=_EdQY8JwEVc 📧 Email: [email protected] 💻 Production Company: Thirst No More Productions 📱 Social Media: @ThirstNoMoreProductions on Facebook and Instagram 📬 Stay connected: Email: [email protected] Rate ★★★★★ & share with youth workers who dream big for the Kingdom.
