James M. Thayer is an evangelist out of Nashville, TN with Freedom Collective Ministries. Previously, he was an entrepreneur in the video production industry for 12 years. James is the author of the {Our God} series which imaginatively answers difficult questions children ask their parents about God. His first book for adults published was "Stepping Out of the Boat (a year of miracles)" where James recounts his story of coming to know the Holy Spirit and witnessing dozens of miracles in a year. The sequel, "Somebody Gave Me Fire" is due to be published in 2025.
He's currently writing a book titled "The American Mos Maiorum (Our Shared Culture)" where he hopes to make a compelling argument for uniting Americans across political, religious, and ethnic divides.
James resides in Middle Tennessee with his wife Aly and two daughters - Ella and Josephine. When he's not filming or writing, you can find him hanging out with his family, preaching the gospel, praying for the sick, teaching biblical foundations, chopping wood, mowing the yard, farming, fishing, hunting, nerding out with his friends, consuming the writings of CS Lewis or GK Chesterton, doing carpentry, flying kites with his daughters, throwing a LAN party, hiking (how he met his wife), making disciples for Jesus, losing at a board game, or indulging in some other wonderful pleasure found in God's creation.
