In a world full of noise, some voices gently move hearts without ever shouting. Charlene Quaye is one of those voices.
Best known for her work as a maternity nurse and disability advocate, she’s also a pastor, author of nine books, and now a rising film producer making waves in Ghana’s faith-based cinema space. Her recent film, Crossing Paths, premiered at Silverbird Cinemas in Accra and has already begun stirring meaningful conversations about purpose, destiny, and divine timing.
The following profile draws on insights from an exclusive interview Charlene Quaye gave to TrenderHQ, where she opened up about her journey, her motivations, and the call that led her from the UK into the heart of Ghana’s Christian film movement.
A calling that came in a dream
I didn’t choose filmmaking. It chose me,” Charlene told TrenderHQ. “God gave me the title Crossing Paths in a dream years ago. I didn’t understand it at the time, but over the years, He revealed what the story was meant to be.
Without any formal training in film, Charlene leaned into obedience.
I had to trust the process. God brought people around me who were knowledgeable, and step by step, we got it done.
Purpose above everything
With two children and a busy life in the UK, balancing it all isn’t easy. But Charlene draws strength from clarity.
Purpose gives me direction,” she said. “I’ve had to let go of things that don’t align with what God has asked me to do. I don’t just want to be busy — I want to be impactful.
That clarity is what pushed her to set up two production outfits: Diamond Pillar Productions and Queen Char’s Media Network, the teams behind Crossing Paths.
A message the world needs now
At its core, Crossing Paths is about how ordinary encounters can shift destinies — a theme deeply rooted in Charlene’s own life.
We often overlook the people we meet. But I believe nothing is random. Every meeting can be a divine setup, she explained.
The film’s premiere was more than just a screening. With red carpet moments, free popcorn, prayerful vibes, and a full crowd across two auditoriums, the atmosphere was electric.
People were touched. Some cried, some prayed. It was emotional. That’s when I knew it wasn’t just a film — it was ministry, she reflected.
Looking ahead with faith
Charlene’s vision goes beyond a single film. She hopes to help shape a new wave of Christian creatives across Africa and the diaspora.
I want to build a hub for faith-based storytelling, she shared. “There’s so much untapped potential, especially in Ghana. We can tell powerful stories that change lives.
Final word
Charlene Quaye isn’t chasing the spotlight. She’s simply answering a call — one quiet act of obedience at a time.
If even one life is touched, that’s enough, she said.
Her journey reminds us that sometimes, the most powerful stories aren’t made in studios or classrooms. They’re born in prayer, shaped by faith, and carried forward with love.
