Episode 4
Friday, 12 December, 2025
In a world where faith and creativity often seem at odds, Jesús Canchola Sánchez's journey offers a compelling narrative of reconciliation and growth. Growing up in a Catholic family in Chicago, Jesús's early life was steeped in religious tradition. However, like many teenagers, he rebelled against these teachings, embarking on a journey that would take him far from the church and into the realms of leftist ideologies and diverse belief systems.His exploration led him to Cuba, where he was exposed to communism, and later to New York City, where he immersed himself in a liberal arts education and the vibrant creative scene. Despite his distance from the church, Jesús found solace in the quiet moments spent in its presence, a testament to the enduring power of his grandmother's faith.As a creative, Jesús's journey was marked by significant achievements, including the production of a film in Mexico and the publication of a children's book. Yet, it was his return to Chicago and the church that marked a turning point. Embracing his faith once more, Jesús found a renewed sense of purpose, leading to the creation of his debut novel, "Escape from Natura Meta."Set in a dystopian future, the novel explores themes of faith, identity, and societal manipulation, reflecting Jesús's own journey of self-discovery and spiritual awakening. As he continues to develop his voice and share stories that resonate with his faith, Jesús's journey serves as an inspiring reminder of the power of creativity and belief.Subscribe now to follow more stories of faith and creativity.
