Between Heaven and Hollywood

Chasing Your God-Given Dream

De: David A. R. White

Narrado por: Mark Smeby

Between Heaven & Hollywood is David's inspirational journey from the wheat fields of his Mennonite home outside of Dodge City, Kansas, to the bright lights of Los Angeles. This story of perseverance will assure you that your dreams aren't frivolous. They might be the most important part of your life.

White has starred in more than 25 movies and produced 40 films, including the blockbuster God's Not Dead. He serves as a managing partner of Pure Flix, the largest faith-based movie studio in the world. With his signature wit and sidesplitting hilarity, David's story of faithfulness, grounded in the biblical truth that no dream is too big for God, will inspire you to relentlessly pursue your dreams and, in the process, bring the reality of God's kingdom a little closer to the here and now.

God has planted a dream in your heart that is both unique to you and essential to the world. White reminds us that there is no one too common, too uneducated, too poor, too inexperienced, or too broken that he or she cannot be used by God.

I so enjoyed learning about David’s journey and how God has led him to he is today.

dream big

I was encouraged by the testimony of his life of pursuing a God given dream.

Glad David is Making a Difference in Hollywood.

Big admirer of Pureflix and found David's beginnings fascinating. Liked the story and success advice as well. Wish there was more information of the behind the scenes and struggles of the various projects he has worked on. Lastly, hope there is another book covering the creation of PureFliix streaming and more on the movies he has made. I did subscribe to PureFlix with a yearly subscription and have been very happy ant thankful for the platform.

Fun, Uplifting, Challenging and Masterful

I had the pleasure of listening to this audiobook the last few days. I was always eager to get back to the story! David's book is a masterfully created compilation of examples from his life story, from pastor’s kid to prodigal son returns, cleverly blended into an inspiring message of how God-given dreams lead us into our most fulfilling destiny.

His fun personality kept the tone uplifting and lighthearted while exhorting the readers to not take the pursuit of their dreams lightly, but rather to take them seriously. To embrace them as the direction forward for purpose and fulfillment when fully surrendered to God for His glory, not ours.

I was personally challenged to change a course of direction I was in the middle of planning to take right at the time of listening to this book, seeing it clearly now as my “back up plan” that I was just going to skip right into instead of trusting God to lead me in the scary faith-requiring God-sized dream I’m supposed to pursue. What a timely provision of divine intervention for me as this book is helping me to face my fears to follow the faithful whispers of the dreams burning in my heart.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who is lacking a sense of purpose or direction, who has drifted away from the Lord and doesn’t know their way back, who has been faithful to the Lord but is feeling discontent and/or restless or discouraged, or who is humbly pursuing their God-given dreams but needs a boost of strength to press on.

It’s one of those that’s worth a second or third listen. Enjoy!

Great Book

What about Mark Smeby’s performance did you like?

Love his performance. He was very natural and it was like someone was talking to you rather than reading to you.

Any additional comments?

Great book with lots of great stories and encouragement.
