When darkness is all around you, it’s hope that can be the light and help you have sight! Dr. Ming Wang is a world-renowned eye surgeon that has helped restore eyesight to millions of patients thanks to his patented technology.  But that’s just the latter half of his story. As a teenager, Dr. Wang fought to escape China’s Cultural Revolution — during which millions of innocent youths were faced with a life sentence of hard labor and poverty. His inspiring true story is now a major motion picture. The movie “Sight” releases nationwide on May 24th. Nine-time Emmy winner David Sams catches up with his good friend, Dr. Ming Wang, to share Ming’s personal story and inspire others that the present is made possible by the past! “Sight” stars Oscar-nominated and Emmy-winner Greg Kinnear, and Terry Chen. Tickets are available now!

Miracles happen every day, and when your last name is quite literally Miracle, you have to believe it! As author and speaker Gary Miracle describes it, his life caught up to his name in 2020 when an infection nearly killed him after going into septic shock and caused him to lose his arms and legs. His incredible story reached the world when the Grammy-nominated Christian band “MercyMe” shared it through their music video “Say I Won’t.” Now Gary sits down with Nine-time Emmy winner David Sams to chat about his personal story of survival, relationship with lead singer Bart Millard, and new outlook on life.
