Carl von Hollen is a one of the most passionate and encouraging men I know. He's been that way since we first met in Chicago in 1998. Emblematic of his life's trajectory, I often describe Carl as a theo-thesbian since he is trained in theology and acting.. the arts and faith being two of his passions. He and I have had the opportunity to make some great memories across numerous states in America, as well as Germany (his home country), the United Kingdom, and Ireland (our former home).
Carl has served in numerous church contexts, as a translator for some of the biggest churches in America hosting conferences in Germany, a travel educator, a voice-over artist, as a jury member at the Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale), and an actor. Carl von Hollen is one of those people that you love to be around because inspiration and joy exude from him. May you experience the same from our conversation in this episode!
You can find Carl on IMDB and in this message from Mosaik Berlin (Germany/Deutschland) entitled 'The Secret of Contentment' via YouTube- as well as a few other messages on the same channel. Here's a link to the poem I read at the end of the episode (my favorite poem!), entitled 'Ode' by Arthur O'Shaughnessy. +++
