Episode 22: Lindsey Carlson Creative Impact Podcast

    • Performing Arts

Get ready to be encouraged through this conversation with Lindsey Carlson! Lindsey is a pastor’s wife, a mother of 5, and an author. She published her first book, “Growing in Godliness: A Teen Girl’s Guide to Maturing in Christ” with Crossway in 2019 and is currently writing a book on biblical encouragement for women with an expected release in 2022.

Lindsey shares about her early pursuits in the arts and how that led her into a love for communications. After starting a family, her path shifted towards motherhood and dabbling in multiple areas such as photography, music, and theater. After attending a women’s conference where they shared about speaking and writing, Lindsey’s eyes were opened to the opportunity of writing as a way to serve God.

During this time, Lindsey and her husband Kyle moved from Houston, Texas, to Baltimore, Maryland, to plant Imprint Community Church. We chat about how her passion for writing developed from blog posts to writing articles for The Gospel Coalition, Desiring God, and a variety of other contributor sites. From there, she began to pursue publishing a book. She describes how writing is a “long-haul thing” and how valuable community is in the process. We talk about the joys along the publishing journey and the challenges, including the trap of comparison and the reality of rejection.

Lindsey’s heart for teaching the Bible and discipling women through her writing and public speaking is evident throughout our conversation. I believe everyone will come away from this conversation encouraged to look to God and depend on His strength as we walk out our faith journey.
