In this episode of Mirror Talk: Soulful Conversations, we are honoured to welcome Andrew Greer, a gifted songwriter, acclaimed author, filmmaker, and storyteller whose work beautifully bridges art, faith, and community.
From writing heartfelt songs to producing documentaries and hosting beloved podcasts such as Empty Stage, Bridges, and Dinner Conversations, Andrew has devoted his life to creating meaningful connections through story.
In this conversation, he shares what storytelling means to him, how his faith shapes his creativity and relationships, and how his upbringing as the son of a therapist and an organist formed the heart behind his work. Andrew also reflects on his move to Plains, Georgia, and the lessons he has learned from living in President Jimmy Carter’s hometown.
Through his latest book, More Than a President: Sundays with Jimmy Carter, Andrew invites us to rediscover the beauty of humility, love, and community. His words remind us that storytelling is not only an art but also a way of seeing the sacred worth in every person.
Tune in to be inspired by Andrew’s insights on music, faith, belonging, and the quiet power of serving others.
