In this powerful episode, Ruslan sits down with actor Nick Harris—best known for his role in The Chosen—to unpack his incredible journey through Hollywood, faith, and family legacy. From being cast in a Pampers commercial as a toddler to almost walking away from acting for soccer, Nick opens up about the real grind of being a working actor, including countless auditions, rejection, and the emotional toll of trying to "make it."
He shares how growing up in a faith-influenced household with a pastor grandfather laid the foundation for his eventual spiritual awakening. But it wasn’t until the industry pressures and the isolation of COVID hit that he found a deep, personal faith in Jesus.
The conversation also dives into the tension between craft and clout in today’s acting world—how influencers are landing roles without traditional training, and what it means to stay rooted in purpose when the industry often rewards popularity over skill.
This is a raw and inspiring conversation about calling, perseverance, and how God’s timing always wins out in the end.
