The Beacon Show with Tamara Jackson

Practicing Faith at Work to Achieve the Impossible | Dan Merchant

Episode Summary

Are you called to tackle topics in your writing or speaking that others would shy away from? In this inspiring interview preview of The Beacon Show, Dan Merchant shares words of wisdom about being a good steward of the message God has placed on your heart.

Episode Notes

As an award-winning television writer and producer, Dan Merchant has seen firsthand how difficult it is to create something that people enjoy and resonate with — especially when the story he feels called to write isn’t likely to appeal to mainstream audiences. But Dan has also learned that sometimes, you just have to give it a try and see what works. 

“It’s all impossible anyway,” Dan says. “So you might as well try.”

By trying to be the best steward he can be of the ideas given to him by the Holy Spirit, Dan has achieved success and learned along the way that you can’t always trust what viewers are predicted to enjoy. So if you have an idea that seems like it will never work, you might as well give it a try. 

Stay tuned for the full episode!
