They have produced several film projects together(Indescribable 2013, The Amish and the Reformation 2017, Breaking the Silence: My Amish Story 2018) and are continuing to seek God's direction for future projects.

    Joseph grew up as the son of an Old Order Amish minister who was eventually excommunicated for preaching salvation by grace through faith. Joseph was inspired by his parents' walk with God and has been actively serving God since his teens. For more than a decade he traveled throughout the U.S. and Mexico using chalk art to present the gospel of Jesus Christ. Today, as a pastor and a filmmaker he continues to communicate biblical truth and make disciples for Jesus Christ. 

    Nate Thomson

    Nate met his incredible wife, Kim, at an Athletes in Action swim camp in the summer of 1995. They were married in 1997 and have five children.

    Nate was born in California and raised in Houston, TX in a strong Christian family. At a family Bible study, at the age of 7 or 8, he became acutely aware of his sin. He later asked his dad and mom about what it was to be saved and then asked his mom to pray with him.

    While attending LSU, Nate began training for the 1996 Olympics in swimming. In 1995, he finished the year in a promising position to make the team. In January of 1996, about 1 month prior to the Olympic Trials, he contracted mononucleosis. Through the support of his family and his future wife, he worked through accepting God's will. He learned that God can be trusted even when lifelong dreams are shattered.

    The Thomsons started attending Southside the fall of that same year. Nate oversees the church's local ministries, e.g. Shannons Hope, Denver Rescue Mission, etc. He also teaches in Sundays adult Bible study and co-leads a mid-week small group study.
