Nathan Blair - The Power of Story

If I asked you what your favorite childhood movie was, I bet you’d remember at least 2 or 3 films, right? What about a film you saw that forever impacted the way you viewed life? TODAY I have the honor and privilege of talking with someone who is making these types of films and series. I believe it will not only be fun to tune in and along, Nathan’s journey of his calling, but will inspire you within your OWN story to ask a few questions and perhaps see what God might be calling you to in this season or next. Nathan Blair has loved movies his whole life. As a child of the 80’s, he always fantasized ab0ut making movies but thought it too impossible. God disagreed. With 7 feature films and a soon to be mini-series (which we’ll talk about today) A Perfect Chord, 2nd Greatest, A High School Story, SCION, Sleeper Agent, Stealing the Show, Once Upon a Christmas, Fragment: Oblivion) Nathan has cultivated his calling to create high level crossover films with a Christ centered message. It has been said that Nathan and his cutting-edge production company, Kingdom Sight Studios are a “force to reckon with” in the faith-based industry. These films have traveled on both the Duck Commander and K-LOVE Radio cruises; they’ve been highlighted with the Dove Foundation, Best Buy, Walmart, iTunes, Pureflix and more. In February of 2020, Nathan became the Executive Director of Cross Wind Productions; a 501(c)3 ministry where the next generation of Christian filmmakers are inspired, encouraged and trained, all with a Christian worldview. Nathan has said “While Christian filmmakers are producing new content that speaks to adults, Hollywood works tirelessly to capture the hearts and minds of our children.” Cross Wind is a place where teens can make a movie for teens. A place where they can speak a language they want to hear. In Nathan’s opinion, “movies represent the most powerful medium for communicating a message. Jesus spoke in parables to convey points because He knew the power of story. And when you combine story with stunning visuals and soaring music, you have a method to reach people on a deeper level. Filmmakers have been utilizing the power of film for decades, I just want to share a story of hope and joy, whether that’s a horror movie or a western. Movies move people, I want my movies to move people towards Jesus.” And that’s just what we’re going to talk about, so I hope you’re excited and ready for this talk with Nathan so why dont you pull up that chair, grab a cup of coffee and dive in with us to the places between More about Kingdom Sight Studios: www.kingdomsightstudios.com/ Find Nathan and connect with him on LinkedIn here, Facebook here And Instagram here.
