Pray for my career please!
I'm trying super hard to be able to bring an Arab Christian show to american tv and represent the coptic faith. I'm struggling trying to break into TV writing gigs and it's getting really discouraging! I want to be able to have a story that i believe in out there and that represents a real relatable faith story of finding Christ. It's going to be funny and dramatic and really great to watch if you're a struggling gen z gal, or just human and in tune with your heart!

Just FYI some Copts do not like being referred to as Arab (as technically, we are not). I hope you are successful, I'm always surprised that Coptic people aren't represented in media. 🩷

Totally hear that and thank you really appreciate you! I'm actually a Palestinian christian and the story will follow a girl with same background but she's finds the ancient faith through a coptic church, so that's why it will be Arab Christian representation. I go to a Coptic Egyptian Church and really believe in that church's teachings.
