Naima Lett DTS Interview & Confessions of a Hollywood Christian, © NaimaLett.com/blog

Hi Fam,

I recently had a ball dialoguing with Dallas Theological Seminary fam, Dr. Darrell Bock and Dr. Reg Grant, about the significance of Cultural Engagement in the Arts, how Christians can excel in the media, and my book/series Confessions of a Hollywood Christian.

The interview is the closing segment of the series “The Challenge and Dilemma of Being a Christian in the Arts” featured on THE TABLE, a weekly DTS podcast on topics related to God, Christianity, and Culture.

We talk about LaLa Land, the film industry and the role of Christians within the industry. I also share advice with artists who want to make a living in Hollywood on everything from how to choose roles to how to bring truth to the screen without compromising. The breakdown is below.

Looking forward to being in Dallas in April.
I’m teaching:
ACTORS WORKSHOP, North Dallas Community Fellowship, Saturday, April 20th, and
LAUNCH! Move your Film/TV Idea from Concept to Production, Christian Women in Media National Conference, Saturday, April 27th.
DTS’ Table Conference is that same week. I might just have to stop by! :=)

Enjoy the video!
Feel free to pass it along and please let us know what you think,
Naima
