24. Masey Mclain, Actress: "I Need You to Choose"

There's something magical that happens when you sit down with someone who's discovered their purpose and is living it out boldly. That's exactly what I experienced when I chatted with actress, writer, and songwriter, Masey Mclain. As we talked about her latest film Soul on Fire, I found myself scribbling notes about what it really means to find your calling through intimate relationship with God.

My Favorite Takeaways:

• Your gifts are tools for sanctification, not just platforms for success
• Cultivating intimacy with God is the foundation for discovering your purpose
• Sometimes the biggest risks lead to the most beautiful outcomes
• We're all being "fit for heaven" through our earthly experiences
• It's better to light a candle than curse the darkness

Masey opens up about her role as Beth in Soul on Fire—a movie based on John O'Leary's incredible true story of surviving burns on 100% of his body as a nine-year-old. What struck me most wasn't just her portrayal of this fierce, grounding female character, but how the script arrived at a pivotal moment in her own life when she was walking through her own season of fire.

We chatted about how she met her husband, if she always knew she wanted to act, and certain takes in the movie that really struck me.

If you need something to do this weekend, go get yourself a ticket to Soul on Fire. You won't regret it.
