The Faithful Creative

David Lee Martin pt 1

Do you have an entrepreneur spirit? Do you have a dream inside of you? Perhaps you have a book inside of you just trying to get out. Something that will be a blessing to all those who read it. Blessing them even more when they implement whatever your book teaches them? Well, you will want to pay attention to what our guest has to share today. Amen! David Lee Martin and his wife Larna, have spent over 20 years planting and pastoring churches. A little over 7 years ago, they moved into the business-oriented arena by starting a Christian publishing company called “PureRead.com.”  He has now crossed over the 7-figure mark in Amazon royalties simply from short Christian fiction books!  Praise God! David also coaches Christian authors, artists and entrepreneurs to share their knowledge and experiences with the world through his books, courses and memberships which you can find at www.davidleemartin.net. David has just published a new book titled, “God’s Call to Christian Creativity and Entrepreneurship.” The first question I always ask is this… Other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is David Lee Martin?” Before you found yourself doing what you are doing now, you were pastoring churches, planting churches, etc. What sparked you to try and get into the book writing business? And, if I’m remembering correctly, your first books were published on a photo copier? Is that right? When did you do the big leap to Amazon publishing and what has that done for your ministry, your business and for you personally? And that has allowed you to create a 7-figure income simply from Amazon royalties! You have a tagline called a “Christian Creative?” Who is and what is, that type of person? You share that all of us have a type of “creative DNA” as children of God. Can you explain that for us? I urge you to go down into the show notes and get in touch with David Lee Martin today…while you are thinking about it. Just a short email will get the ball rolling in blessing the world with what is already bottled up inside of you. Don’t let the devil try to talk you out of it! Amen! Go down into the show notes and get in touch with David today. And be sure to click the link and order his latest book, “God’s Call to Christian Creativity and Entrepreneurship” today.

About the Podcast

Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast
Interviews with influential Christian ministry and business leaders / owners, authors & musicians & prophecy experts, too!
Pastor Robert Thibodeau interviews Christian guests that range from pastors and ministers to Christian authors; Christian musicians and singers to Christian businessmen and businesswomen who are running impactful businesses while maintaining the Christian morals and values. Each podcast is approximately 28-35 minutes in length (give or take a few minutes). This is an interview based podcast that will often dig deep into the beliefs of the guest being interviewed. We recently published our 1600th Episode (with over 1100 individual interviews) and have been ranked by "Listen Notes" (the "Nielsen Ratings" of Podcasts) in the TOP 1/2% of ALL podcasts worldwide (2.7million +)! So your interviews will be heard!

We always appreciate our partners in helping us to "Get The Word Out!" into all the earth! I pray for our partners every single day. I humbly ask that you would consider sending along any offering of support for this work of God. If every person would commit to just $1 per month - you would be amazed at how fast that will multiply and allow us to have even more impact! And...there are NO SALARIES taken from any offerings sent in. It all goes to Kingdom work! Amen! Click the link for "support" that you see - and God Bless You for your support!

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
