Show Notes
Jordan Raynor sits down with Mark Fincannon, an Emmy Award-winning casting director, to talk about how casting a TV show works week-in week-out, the incredible story behind casting End of the Spear (the story of Jim Elliot), and how Christians can “impose hope” rather than their explicit faith in film.
