The Listening PorchFitting In vs. Belonging | The Listening Porch w/Ray Hughes | Episode 12In this episode of The Listening Porch, Ray Hughes reflects on the difference between fitting in and belonging, and why so many gifted, creative, Spirit-filled people feel misaligned in the places they’re trying to serve.
Drawing from the life of David, Ray explores how the Holy Spirit expresses Himself through poetry, music, story, and creativity, not just within sacred spaces, but through everyday assignments. We talk about fire as light, fire as warmth, fire as focus, and fire as something meant to be carried into dark places.
From campfires and candles to misfits and re...
2025-12-1816 minThe Listening PorchMisfits, Makers, and the Presence of God | The Listening Porch w/Ray Hughes | Episode 11In this episode of The Listening Porch, Ray and Eric sit down to talk about something so many creatives quietly carry: the feeling of not fitting in.
Drawing from the life of King David, they explore why so many musicians, poets, worship leaders, storytellers, and dreamers walk through seasons of misalignment, and how God uses those very seasons to shape purpose, discipline, and fire.
David didn’t just surround himself with poets and prophets. He gathered the distressed, the discontent, the misunderstood, the ones in debt, and the ones who didn’t fit anywhere else. And...
2025-12-1117 minThe Listening PorchIncubating the Unseen | The Listening Porch w/Ray Hughes | Episode 10There are plenty of good ideas floating around. But God ideas… those are the ones that ask us to slow down. To listen. To partner.
Thoughts are like diamonds in the dark. They do not shine until someone turns on the light. Sometimes that light is attention. Sometimes it is patience. Sometimes it is the Holy Spirit saying, “Stay with this.”
In this Selah Creatives moment, we explore how ideas grow, how dreams speak, and how creativity becomes a conversation instead of a performance.
If you want to walk with a company of people...

Writing feels like walking through a forest, looking for the sea.
Ray and Eric talk about:
- How writing, creativity, and spiritual life mirror a long forest journey
- Why wonder is essential, especially in the “ordinary” seasons
- Why there’s no such thing as writer’s block
- The difference between getting lost and being lost
- The art of digging for treasure right where you are
- How the forest eventually opens to revelation, like stepping...
2025-11-2713 minThe Listening PorchWonder & Mystery | The Listening Porch w/ Ray Hughes | Ep. 8In this episode of The Listening Porch, we’re literally on a porch outside, surrounded by dogs barking, cars passing, and creation doing what it does. And in that setting, Ray shares one of the themes that has shaped his entire life: wonder.
We talk about the “mystery of Christ,” not as something we’re meant to comprehend, but something we’re invited to apprehend — to step into, experience, and walk with. Ray uses the image of walking through a forest to teach us how wonder reveals God in ways intellect never could.
We discuss:

2025-11-2016 minThe Listening PorchHow Architecture Shapes Our Art and Worship Expressions | The Listening Porch with Ray Hughes | Episode 7In this conversation, we explore how worship, music, and even church architecture influence the way we encounter God. From the awe of ancient cathedrals to the simplicity of a living room or open field, we talk about how real worship isn’t confined to walls or production — it’s born in moments where love meets love.
We discuss the beauty of sacred spaces, the loss of wonder in modern worship, and what it looks like to encounter God with undivided attention.
2025-11-1216 minThe Listening PorchWhat Is It About Porches? | The Listening Porch with Ray Hughes | Episode 6In this episode of The Listening Porch, Ray Hughes shares the heart behind the name itself — why porches once mattered so much, how storytelling shaped families and cultures, and what we lose when we trade real connection for technology.
From Irish legends to front porch memories, this conversation reminds us that stories are sacred spaces — and that listening itself is an art form.
2025-11-0515 minThe Listening PorchPaint Your Words with Music | The Listening Porch with Ray Hughes | Episode 5In this episode of The Listening Porch, Ray Hughes and Eric Yun dive into the beauty of creative freedom — how every artist, poet, and musician carries the potential for a new revolution when they stop trying to fit in.
They discuss how styles evolve, how comparison can kill creativity, and how to rediscover the purity of making art just because it’s in you.
From the birth of musical genres to the heart behind prophetic art, this conversation will remind you that what finds its way into your heart will always find its way into your...
2025-10-2921 minThe Listening PorchMusic Before It Was An Industry | The Listening Porch with Ray Hughes | Episode 4In this episode of The Listening Porch, Ray Hughes explores what happens when music moves from being lived to being consumed.
Drawing from his book 107 Things I Forgot to Say About Worship, Creativity, and Music, Ray unpacks how the invention of technology—from the microphone to the radio—shifted music from porches and fields to studios and stages.
What began as a divine sound born from place and purpose became a business built on access and control. But somewhere in that evolution lies an invitation: to recover the song that’s still inside us.

2025-10-2324 minThe Listening PorchWrite a Song Only God Will Hear | The Listening Porch with Ray Hughes | Episode 3In this episode of The Listening Porch, Ray and Eric talk about the kind of creativity that no one else will ever see — songs, poems, prayers, and moments meant only for God.
They start with one of the short reflections from 107 Things I Forgot to Say — “Write a song today that you don’t want anyone to hear but God.” From there, the conversation unfolds into the tension between honesty and performance, filters and freedom, and how humility often shows up in the cracks of our lives.
Highlights:
Why the most honest songs might be the ones n...
2025-10-1613 minThe Listening PorchMusic: The Universal Language | The Listening Porch with Ray Hughes | Episode 2Starting from a passage in Ray’s book 107 Things I Forgot to Say, Ray and Eric explore how music becomes the language of those who laugh, live, long, and love. The conversation moves from laughter as warfare and healing, to music as the breath of life, to songs that hold the ache of longing, to melodies born of love itself.
This episode touches everything from Psalm 2’s laughter of God, to the cry in Appalachian bluegrass, to Korean worship melodies that carry generational pain and hope. It’s a rich, wandering conversation about sound, spirit, and the way mu...

From Luther’s hymns to the songs of the Wesley brothers, every reformation has carried a sound. Ray unpacks how music, creativity, and worship not only shape the church but ripple outward into culture itself. Join us on the porch as we rediscover the power of song to awaken hearts, reform communities, and carry the purposes of God into the world....

Hidden KingdomNew Sounds and Ancient Truths - In conversation with Ray Hughes'I was raised in a storytelling culture,' says Ray Hughes.
Dave finds out about Ray's cultural roots and how they have shaped and influenced his approach to creativity.
