    3 Ways the Arts Heal Through Compassion and Open Wounds [Eps 28]

    Compassion allows a person to suffer with another. As creative influencers, we have an amazing power to share bits of ourselves through our creations: a joy, a heartbreak, or even an open wound from which we are still trying to heal.  This episode describes three ways the arts help us show compassion as wounded healers.  A guided 5-minute breath prayer is included to help you experience God's compassion personally: Inhale: Compassionate God Exhale: You see me. Inhale: Loving Father, Exhale: You welcome me. Inhale: Trusted Counselor, Exhale: You hold me. Inhale: Faithful Emmanuel, Exhale: You stay with me. Inhale: Gracious Healer, Exhale: You restore me.

    2 Ideas to Train Yourself in Courage [Eps 27]

    "Courage---you develop courage by doing small things like just as if you wouldn’t want to pick up a 100-pound weight without preparing yourself. " -- Maya Angelou. This is a different kind of courage: the courage to slow it way down and how to train for it. It's less about a big, bold leap and more about training one’s heart to make micro movements of faith. Imagine climbing a mountain, like a Colorado fourteener. You don’t typically just go out and hike one without preparation (especially if you’re from the Midwest). You train over time, day after day. You get stronger with small choices of effort and faith that propel you toward this goal to successfully climb a mountain. The courage to slow down is to dare to move at an unhurried pace and take a breather in the face of a frenetic culture. Here are some ideas to help you press into the resistance.

    How to Reignite Your Creativity [Eps 26]

    The central challenge is how to make space for the creative gladness we require in order to create. In this episode, I share about the core value of creativity and five ways to reignite your energy when it seems gone. I attempt to answer the questions: what do we do when our lives are constricted as they are right now with stress upon stress, fear, and anxiety? How do we create in unstimulating spaces? This podcast is all about giving artists confidence and motivation to arrange their lives to do their art and reveal God’s glory to the world. It stands for a well-functioning life cultivated and shaped by creative rhythms that restore and empower through story, celebration, rest, and play. A creative life is about making space to receive sustenance from God, the ultimate creator. Creativity itself is a sacred act, in which we participate in the act of creation like and with our God. Make space to receive and become the poema.

    Visio Divina—Rainbow Hands with Vesper Stamper [Eps 25]

    Hands tell a lifetime of stories. So does art. Using a piece called Rainbow Hands from the book A Cloud of Outrageous Blue by Vesper Stamper, Christina Hubbard leads a 10-minute visio divina exercise. Visio divina means “divine seeing” in Latin, as we gaze upon a work of art and experience God’s presence through it. Visio divina engages the eye and the imagination. It can be done with a piece of art, religious or not, or even a leaf or landscape you discover outside. Artist Tim Mooney says of visio divina: "It invites us to be seen, addressed, surprised, and transformed by God who is never limited or tied to any image, but speaks through them.” Access an image of Rainbow Hands and a transcription of the meditation here. Find Vesper's work at VesperStamper.com and on Instagram. Purchase a print of Rainbow Hands here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/vesperillustration. Book giveaway of A Cloud of Outrageous Blue through October 30!  https://www.instagram.com/p/CGi_9JZhjJQ/ Check out Parts 1 and 2 of the interview with Vesper.
