Say Goodnight Kevin Interview

I've been following Kevin McCreary for a long time. He is a YouTuber and podcaster specializing in faith-based films. He calls himself the accountability partner that no one asked for. That's a pretty accurate description of what he does. He often mercilessly and hilariously critiques faith-based films, but not out of hatred. No. He does what he does because he wants to see the genre improve.

I first reached out to him on social media a couple of years ago when I felt he was being attacked unfairly over something he said. We have talked periodically over the years and I have always found him funny and earnest. An odd combination. If there was anyone who was going to ask me the kind of questions that would get me kicked out of the faith-based film business once and for all, it would be him. I welcomed the opportunity.

In theory, I was going to be the first guest on his podcast. We had a great talk about a year ago, but there were some technical issues on his side. Too bad. Fortunately, we finally re-recorded at a time when circumstances allowed me to be a little more open in my responses.

Here's the podcast:

Some of my colleagues might cynically say that it is easy for me to talk with Kevin because he hadn't trashed any of my films. No so. He doesn't have any critiques of my films on his YouTube channel,  but he took down one of the Revelation Road films recently in a special subscriber event. I didn't see it. I am too cheap to subscribe!

Kevin did, however, mock the trailer of my film Marriage Retreat. Some might question his taste in doing this video so soon after David A.R. White, one of the founders of PureFlix, and his wife Andrea Logan White publicly announced the end of their marriage. I am genuinely saddened by that news. Marriage can be very hard but divorce is an ugly family crushing event. There but for the grace of God go I. My heart goes out to Andrea and the kids. And yes, it might surprise some, but I even feel bad for David.

Bad taste or not, here it is:

Be sure to check out my novel Chapel Street. It tells the story of a young man straddling the line between sanity and madness while battling a demonic entity that has driven his family members to suicide for generations. It was inspired by an actual haunting my family experienced.

You can buy the Kindle and paperback at Amazon and the Nook, paperback and hardcover at Barnes & Noble.
