I felt so refreshed after my time talking to Jeanna Vance, guest on episode 40. Jeanna exudes the love of God and invests in each person she encounters. She is a wife, mother of two, and a dance artist. Jeanna founded Open Sky Arts Collective in 2014. Open Sky’s mission is to use the arts to bring the Kingdom of God to the lost and hurting among us. Beginning as a project-based organization, Open Sky has now grown into two full-time companies operating in Houston and Dallas.
Prior to starting Open Sky, Jeanna danced with various modern and ballet companies including Ad Deum Dance Company, Sandra Organ’s Dance Company, Suchu Dance, Hopestone Inc., and Psophonia Dance Company. She served on faculty with Dance Revolution dance convention for 12 years teaching dance, performing, and sharing her journey of faith and art with thousands of students and teachers.
Jeanna shares her story of overcoming self-hatred and an eating disorder through experiencing the love of God and the power of forgiveness. Seeing others experience freedom and recognize their value is a huge part of Jeanna’s heart and mission.
At a crossroad in her journey, she felt God prompt her to start Open Sky. Are you in a place where you feel like you don’t have anything to give? May Jeanna’s story fill you with hope and encouragement. As Jeanna says, “we are not enough, but He is enough.”
