Professor of Audio Production Barry Blair and alumnus Christopher Phelps ’22 recently worked on I Am Living Proof, a groundbreaking documentary directed by Bob Maddux and produced by Shana Marie Gilbert and Brady Nasfell ’93, which captivated audiences in theaters in March and is now available for streaming on the film’s website.
The film was an official 2025 selection of the 52nd Annual ICVM Crown Awards and filled more than 530 theaters around the U.S. It is based off a summer 2022 event when thousands gathered under a revival tent in Colorado Springs, Colo., as churches across the community united to host renowned evangelist Mario Murillo. From this powerful movement emerged three extraordinary testimonies of healing and transformation — stories so profound they demanded to be shared with the world.
Filmed over the course of a year across multiple locations, including Colorado Springs and Burbank, Calif., I Am Living Proof intricately weaves together personal testimonies with expert insights, offering an intimate look at lives forever changed. Each account stands as a testament to faith, resilience, and the power of community, inviting viewers to witness the extraordinary.
“The subjects’ emotional stories that at first seem unbelievable become real as they unfold,” said Debbie Kelly, a writer for The Gazette.
Blair was brought onto the team to handle the sound mix, along with other Asbury community members, such as Phelps representing the university, Nasfell producing, and Dr. Craig Keener from Asbury Theological Seminary, who appears in the documentary as one of the experts.
“When Brady (Nasfell) asked me to mix I Am Living Proof, he sent me a rough edit, and after watching it, I knew right away that I had to work on this film,” Blair said. “It’s such an inspiring story — that God still works miracles today — and that’s a message the world needs to hear. It was an amazing opportunity for me to be a part of it.”
