In today’s powerful episode, I sit down with filmmakers Joseph Stam and David Alford, the creative minds behind the new faith-based film, Searching for the Elephant.

What happens when a homeschooled teen with a passion for storytelling joins forces with a seasoned theater director whose heart beats for redemption? You get a dynamic duo, a God-ordained partnership—and a story that just might change your life.

🎬 Searching for the Elephant tackles addiction, broken family dynamics, and the deep need for grace. It follows Jason Bowden, a young man spiraling in addiction, who is sent to live with his estranged grandfather—a solitary Vietnam veteran. Together, they uncover buried pain, rediscover faith, and find a path to healing.

💬 In this conversation, Joseph and David share:

  • How God led them into filmmaking
  • Why faith-based films must go beyond clichés
  • The power of multi-generational storytelling
  • Behind-the-scenes moments from filming in Virginia
  • How God uses brokenness to write redemptive stories

This episode is for creatives, storytellers, ministry leaders—and anyone who loves seeing how God can take ashes and turn them into beauty.
