Bernell Taylor, a dedicated podcaster and an entrepreneur with a passion for storytelling, has embarked on a remarkable journey to capture and share stories of faith from individuals of diverse backgrounds and beliefs. Through his YouTube series titled "My Faith Story" and website "MyFaithStory.org." Taylor aims to provide a platform for people of faith to express their spiritual experiences and inspire others with their narratives.
In a recent interview, Taylor expressed his genuine interest in sitting down with individuals from all walks of life, regardless of denomination, to share their personal journeys of faith. He emphasized that the scope of his project extends beyond any specific religious affiliation and welcomes anyone who identifies as a person of faith or holds a belief in a higher power. Along with his wife RaNae, the Taylors plan to live in Thompson for eighteen months.
"We want to sit down with individuals, anyone who is a person of faith," Taylor explained. "And that is not limited to a denomination, anyone who believes in a higher power. And we want them to share their story on camera and just interview them."
With a focus on delving into the depths of faith and spirituality, Taylor and his wife pose thought-provoking questions to their interviewees, aiming to uncover the essence of their beliefs and experiences. "We like to ask questions like; what things try your faith, how does your faith make you a better person, which I would call innocuous questions. Questions of the soul," Taylor elaborated.
The "My Faith Story" series has already gathered compelling narratives from various corners of the globe. Taylor reflected on the impactful stories gathered during their time in Uganda and expressed his eagerness to continue their mission of capturing stories closer to home in the North, with a new series he has begun in Thompson titled "Stories of Faith from the Frozen Chosen."
Taylor's profound respect for the diversity of religious beliefs is evident in his mission to create a platform where individuals can share their faith-based experiences. "I’m a disciple of Jesus Christ, and have a healthy respect for followers of many forms of religion. I believe we can learn from one another, regardless of our particular faith, and share in our common belief in a Supreme Being who I choose to call God," Taylor shared.
Through his dedication to storytelling and his commitment to fostering understanding and unity among believers of all faiths, Bernell Taylor is on a mission to celebrate the beauty of diversity and the universal themes that connect people through their faith.
With each captivating story shared through "My Faith Story," Taylor continues to uphold his vision of love, service, and the invitation for individuals of faith to come forward and share their extraordinary journeys, ultimately bringing communities together through the power of storytelling.
