Behind the Film: LazRael Lison on Finding Faith, Hollywood & Purpose

Before the director, there was the kid who got into trouble, got sent away, and could’ve gone down a completely different path. But God.

In this episode, I sit down with LazRael Lison, the filmmaker behind Finding Faith, and we go way beyond the script. We talk about his life, where he came from, and how he’s seen God’s hand on every part of the journey — even the hard parts.

This conversation is about more than the film. It’s about purpose, obedience, and the quiet, steady way God builds something through your story when you least expect it. LazRael shares how every step, every closed door, and every painful season led to something bigger than he could’ve planned.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your past disqualifies you — or if God can really use what you’ve been through — this one’s for you.

Finding Faith airs was just in theaters in June and will be premiering on Lifetime August 9th.
