Life, Art, and Creativity with Andrew Peterson Journeywomen

    • Christianity

On today’s episode, we’re chatting with Andrew Peterson about life, art, and creativity. Andrew has performed thousands of concerts, published four novels, released ten albums, taught college and seminary classes on writing, founded a nonprofit ministry for Christians in the arts, and executive-produced a film—all in a belief that God calls us to proclaim the gospel and the coming kingdom using whatever gifts are at our disposal. This conversation will encourage you to use the gifts that God has given you for his glory as well. Andrew is clear that he’s stumbled along the way, made mistake after mistake, and yet continually encountered the grace of God and the power of truth, beauty, and goodness in Scripture and the arts. We pray that this conversation with Andrew encourages you to humbly go about the good work that the Lord has set before you today, resting in grace and trusting that he will redeem all of your screw ups.
