When I record a podcast, create a deep-dive video, or film a documentary, I measure it against a single mission: To inspire the curious builder in every viewer. I use the term "builder" very deliberately to encompass a movement more than a discipline or labor role. The future can be bright, but it has to be built. It does not discriminate: an engineer, a designer, a media maker, any tradesperson can pick up the pieces of what has stopped working to rebuild institutions in a way that work for more people again. Kintsugi. Warts and all, this is one of the most accessible times in history to influence what the future looks like. Many just need to be shown the way, then let loose.

If you feel inundated with work right now, take one deep breath and say this out loud, or softly: “I’m grateful to be overwhelmed. It’s an honour to have work to do, let alone this much.” I just did the same. It helped.

Both Tosin of Moniepoint and Bayo of Wakanow have shared their challenges finding employable talent. Even at Founders connect an event a few years ago. He was open to receiving CVs and this was before they got approved to operate in the UK.

Two weeks ago, I got on a call with one of our paying churches because they were experiencing an issue with Pewbeam. During the call, I found out they run three services every Sunday, with an average of 1,000 people in each service. They were using Pewbeam to project scriptures across at least 10 screens. That moment shifted something for me. I told my team: if Pewbeam works well in this church on Sunday, we are helping over 3,000 people follow the sermon more clearly. But if it fails, we are not just failing one media team, we are letting down 3,000+ people. That gave us a deeper sense of responsibility. We are not just building presentation software. We are supporting moments where people are trying to hear, see, and follow God’s word.
