What if your talent is the very place where you feel closest to God?
In this episode, the crew explores creativity as communion — where music, art, writing, and creating become sacred space. From late-night songwriting sessions to wrestling with guilt, priorities, fear, and faith, this conversation dives deep into what it means to honor your gift, trust divine guidance, and create without apology.

If you’ve ever felt most alive while creating — or guilty when you don’t — this episode will feel like home.

🔑 Key Takeaways
Your talent is often where you feel closest to God
Creating can be a form of worship and communication with God
Guilt fades when you consistently honor your gift
Fear, priorities, and imagined opinions block creativity more than lack of skill
You don’t need full clarity — obedience comes before understanding
Staying in the creative space reveals growth, patterns, and purpose
Honoring intuition is another way of honoring God
